    Manticore 50% increase in power.

    My understanding more power into highly mineralized ground just backfires on you. But if your area has low mineralization, a Manticore might produce some surprises. My question just how deep do silver and gold coins on the average live? Not counting flood plains where you can have a Volkswagen...

    Detectival coming up in mid - Sept 2022

    yeah, there is another video of a UK user actually using the Manticore and that lets me believe there is a variety of the FE-CO grid on that puppy. You minelab engineers are not dumb. They were not going to let the competition to the 800 go unanswered.

    CTX3030 Xchange2 question

    How do I make a copy of a mode so I can modify it slightly? Reason is I wish to put almost the same mode but with slight differences under another save mode name so I can choose between the two quickly using the USR mode switching button.

    Detectival coming up in mid - Sept 2022

    Be interesting to see if Minelab answers the XP2 with and improved 800 or a lighter CTX3030.

    How exactly does the 2D VDI on minelab machines work?

    I have a related question. Been using my CTX for about 8 months. now. Love it. It does well in my parks and baseball fields for cherry picking coins. In my areas coins 4-6" deep it locks on them and leave you no doubt you have a coin even mixed in with iron. On deeper coins, I don't have much...

    Etrac old school or is it 🤔

    Detector comparisons....1) very few if any of the detector comparison videos are factual. Lot of times we really don't see exactly how each machine is set up for the trial and most of the MD youtubers don't know how to do it. 2) the vast majority of the compare videos are done by detectorists...

    People Planting Finds

    I think the vast majority of the cheaters are on youtube where they get paid based on subscribers and viewers. See Ed the beach hunter on youtube. It is hard for me to believe he finds the amount of rings on California beaches when other respected California beach hunters don't even come close...

    People Planting Finds

    Way back in the late 80's I was using a fisher gold bug nugget hunting in North GA. I wondered what the signal would be like on a cache of coins. So I buried a metal bandaid box full of coins in my back yard near my small pond. To this day I cannot find the small cache of coins. I since have...

    He was a pup then. Now 5 years old and 53 lbs of fun.

    Defect Bug found in CTX 3030

    Most silver coin patterns to include large silver like 50 cents and morgans leave open 01-40 thru 01-48 or 01-49 so that should never happen.

    I wish to give our northern friends a laugh

    never thought about that. Well you get the illegals first, but the seem to eventually end up in Atlanta. Our parks are flooded with them on the weekend. They have a different attitude about trash. I was told by an Hispanic friend who has been here 18 years, they drop their trash or leave it...

    Silver rejection in high trash mode

    I have begun to think the best way to notch is with combined tones to help you pick out your favorite targets you are seeking. For instance if I am hunting Civil War Bullets I assign a high tone to the TID range of 3 ringers just before my tonal range for silver coins since I am always...

    Silver rejection in high trash mode

    I have had some good luck on 1st targets in volleyball courts. 1st was a honker silver ring, gold platted and a few small diamonds. My wife took that one. 2nd one was even better later that year a $400 .925 Tiffany's heavy chain bracelet. Both were fist targets under the net near the pole. I...

    Where are all the CTX users?

    Where are you located and what type of hunting do you do? I live in North Atlanta. Bought mine about 8 months ago after selling my Nox 800. I hunt in urban and suburan sites and the 800 was just too sensitive picking up everything. When I knocked down the sensitivity, there went the deep coins...

    What does the word "smart" mean in the CTX30303 description of their coils

    Thanks!

    What does the word "smart" mean in the CTX30303 description of their coils

    is this just a marketing term or is their some type of beneficial intelligence in their 3 smart coils for the CTX?

    Where are all the CTX users?

    Ask rattlehead on this forum. He has extensive CTX experience and has had the Deus 2 for a couple of months and it seems he really likes the deus 2. Maybe no reason to own both a Deus 2 and CTX, but not sure.

    Silver rejection in high trash mode

    I looked in Andy Sabisch's book on the CTX and could not find anything addressing this issue. Maybe I just missed it in his book. Tried it with a Morgan and a dime. On my CTX it is all about orientation of your detector and the iron beside your target, in my case rusty iron nails an inch on...
