    Just bought a used vx3...think I messed up

    Glad to hear it's working better. I have heard that some Tennessee ground is pretty hot and and the factory settings would be to high. You will just have to play with it until you get it to where you like it. Make sure your coils are V rated too. Once you get get used to the VX, it should...

    Just bought a used vx3...think I messed up

    Reduce the sensitivity until quiet. If that does not work, you probably have a coil problem and there is always the repair center.

    Drained lake finds

    They are draining our lake for a fish kill this week so I had to take advantage of the old swimming hole from the 50's to mid 60's. Far from being the first to hunt the beach still yielded some nice finds with the 3030. All of the silver was 12 to 16 inches deep and that was probably why it...

    The rain has stopped :clapping:

    So I went out to Lake Eureka that is being drained for a fish kill next week. There was lots of holes dug so I was not the first to get out there but plenty of goodies left to find. I had a great morning with 13 silver finds, 3 quarters, 7 dimes, two war nickels and two silver rings. 13...

    VDI Numbers not clearing from screen on my V3i

    So right you are.... like I said, it has been many years since I had the V3i.

    VDI Numbers not clearing from screen on my V3i

    It has been many years but it seems the VDI fading off the screen is controlled by the fade rate adjustment :shrug:

    Need some help

    reattaching the yellow and green speaker wires that had been cut off but I can't figure out where they go. It is on a Silver Sabre umax that had GB added. It works OK with headphones but I would like the speaker to work too. Thanks in advance Larry

    22kHz doesn't work well on my V3i

    It could be a bad coil, I would call White's on this one.

    Gone camping

    We had a chance to get a way for a few days from work... boy was that needed. We had a great time and even found a little time to go hunting. There was an old ball diamond that I have worked before but digging and hunting was just perfect and I was getting some deep targets in the 8 to 9 inch...

    Deep Silver settings

    The second suggestion is true, the first one..... probably not. Ground filters has more to do with swing speed, 5 Khz favoring a slow swing. Slow swing is best used in trashy ground. A faster swing speed and higher ground filters generally gives more depth with limits of course.. 7.5 high...

    Deep Silver settings

    I would not recommend someone elses settings, ground conditions and hunting styles vary too much. What is good across town may not be the best for you. I would start with the factory settings and fine tune it to your ground, hearing, swing speed and so forth. That is the strongest selling...

    Picked up a v3i today!

    The White's vids are good but there is a lot bad info (and good) on YouTube. The two forums, White's and this one has everything you need to know and don't pass up the Links at the top of this forum.

    That is true but he is asking about his V3i here on the V series forum. :shrug:

    National Metal Detecting Day

    was a blast and the weather even cooperated in spite of the forecast. We went to the big Minelab sponsored hunt in Galesburg and saw a lot of old friends. I think everyone had a good time, the ones I talked to anyway. I heard there was over $27,000 in prizes and coins to hand out or find to...
