    anyone using the detector pro pistol pointer?

    I know it's not a CTX3030 question but I want to ask those of us that use the CTX about this probe. I have both the Minelab and Garrett probes and find that the Garrett is the better of the two but wonder if the detectorpro is better than the Garrett. thanks

    fast on and deep on while in manual sensitivity mode?

    I usually run in ferrous-coin, combined tone and sensitivity auto +3 but have been trying to do some manual sensitivity as well. Manual sensitivity makes it harder to operate because of the increased sensitivity but I can usually manage to sniff out good targets most of the time but I do get...

    what are we going to do now that our hotspot is gone?

    WOW !!! what a month. MentalMetalMike and I returned to our hot spot (see "Great day detecting and a dime grand slam" from June 15), http://www.findmall.com/read.php?86,1924325 and the goodies continued to roll in. This was an old school site that was being prepared for a new building, and our...

    does the coil signal go down in a cone or strait down?

    been wondering if the signal from any of the minelab coils goes strait down of does it go down in a cone shape? so if I am using the stock 11" coil is it still 11" diameter at 10" down or is it say 5" diameter at 11" depth? this is something I need to know so I know how much to overlap each...

( no Pictures as I can't pry it out of his hands). the next day we found a Merc and an 1883 Indian Head that was really rough around the edges but it is still fun finding indian heads due to that feeling...

    Recovery Fast on ? Or not?

    I know the 3030 has a fast processor but when should we use fast on? It good in all situations or are we better with it off in certain situations? What are your thoughts or experiences with fast on or off? Thanks

We have been on a drought lately so finding 4 in one day and two the next day in a park that has been hit heavily and is full of trash was quitte fun. 3 Rosies and 3 Washington quarters, nothing great but silver just the same...

    Just what is it highly mineralized ground and how I tell ?

    Just what highly mineralized ground anyway and how do I know if I have it? Does it even matter if I am using ferrous-coin? I've never done a ground balance and do I have to if using Ferrous-coin? Just one of the many things to learn about with this complicated machine. Thanks

    Are green pennies ever going to be worth anything?

    I have lots of old green pennies and I wonder if the green ruins their value? They don't look like copper anymore so does that destroy their numismatic value? Is there any way to clean the dried dirt on them or will that also ruin their value ( if they have any value that is due to the green)...

    any word on the Minelab probe?

    Has anyone heard of when Minelab might have their new probe ready for market? My Garrett stinks and they don't have one to send to me so i have to struggle along with it for now and i am hoping that the Minelab probe will be out soon. Thanks

    What is a good sand scoop?

    I do most of my hunting inland but live near a Great Lake and will want to do some beach hunting and would like to know if anyone can help me choose a good sand scoop? Otherwise i will probably end up buying at least 2 of them before i find a good one. It looks like the ones i see being used are...

    what is the best probe?

    i am using the Garrett Pro Pointer and it seems like i have to replace the battery almost every day as it gets so weak that i almost have to touch the target to get it to respond. are there any others that are more powerful or last longer on the battery? thanks and HH

    let's start a list of all the found gold fe-co numbers

    do you all think it would be a good idea to note all the fe-co numbers that we have found gold at so that we can get a better idea of where gold is comeing in at? the 14K ring that i found was a 12-1 and was strong and only one inch so i dug it where i normally wouldn't have.

    CTX3030 found gold

    went out to a local park and didn't find any silver for the first time in 5 hunts since i have had the 3030 but i found a 14K white gold ring with a HUGH stone that i hoped was a diamond but tuned out to be cubic zirconia :-( i had visions that this find would have paid for the 3030 or close...
