    Why so many people dumping the Deus 2

    I for one, hunt mostly, heck about 99% of the time, on house/commercial demolitions! There is trash from nail, roofing tacks, bits of copper, bits of aluminum, bottle caps, cans, pipes, led, etc,. EVERYWHERE! Every 6 inches has several targets! The D2 desperately needs a small coil, 6" hocky...

    New Detector for Parks, soil, and relics.. ...Equinox or Deus 2 ?

    I have two machines, the 800 and the D2. I worked my way from a Whites 6000, Excalibur, E-Trac, F75, CTX to the NOx then the D2. Most of the upgrades were for weight and or balance. Both the 800 and D2 are much better balanced than their predecessors. The 800 seems to me to be a lot more...

    It's refreshing to see more well rounded reviews.

    I will be 80 in September and I hunt mostly house or business demolitions here in the Houston area. Mostly houses from the late 1800's to 1950's. After a demo on the house there are hundreds of nails, bits of aluminum, lead, copper, iron, etc., everywhere. I have about 50 hours on the D2 and...

    Class ring finds it way home 21 years later.

    WTG!!! Great for the hobby and the mind! Over the past 20 years or so I have been fortunate enough find or assist in returning several. One a 1943 Rice Institute mans class ring to it's 92 year owner in Nacogdoches, Texas. A 1945 U Texas mans ring to a widow in Stephenville, Texas. A 1953...

    2nd hunt with the D2

    There is an incredible amount of history in those names on the tokens. But, it seems almost all their old camps in the late 1800's and 1900's are now under casino parking lots or underwater totally. Great job recovering then! The most silvers I have ever dug in one location was 28, other...

    Artifact

    I worked in an underground mine for a few years. Looks like where a older air powered drill bit finished! "Bottom of hole"

    I am leaving Findmall.....Moderator please delete my account.

    I hardly ever post, but when I do, it pisses everyone off! Why are they all crazy? If a person gets tossed out of bar after bar, it most likely is not he business! If a person gets into argument after argument, it most likely is not the other person! If someone tells me my wife is ugly, it...

    Where are all the CTX users?

    I dont post much, but for the CTX I will take a shot. To me it is the absolute best target ID machine ever. So may features to assist in making a decision as to dig or not dig. I got one of the first 5 in Houston, had a bad coil but since then ZERO problems. As for ML service, it was...

    V3 software hunt

    For today a bit different. Hunted two permission lots and got 3 war nickels, and a very small silver round pendant attachment. I tried to hunt almost all the time in 4, and when I got a good repeatable signal I would switch to multi and then dig it. Had some 17 wheats on one yard with 2...

    V3 software hunt

    I used it today for about 4 hours, in the rain. I wanted to see what difference it actually made on deep stuff and what was a reasonable comparison with my normal programs. I run 5 tones, and multi all the time, Park 1 and field 2. Sense is always at 23-25. So, after 4 hours with the...

    Nox 800 Mods

    Funny you are so down on the machine. I have had mine since they came out and have ZERO issue with it. No broken parts, no worn out shafts, no broken coil ears, etc., and I have hunted about 4-6 hours a day 5-7 days a week here in Houston no problems. I dont bay it and it is kept in the...

    wireless earbuds

    I have read almost all the previous posts about wireless earbuds, and there seems to be several of them some folks use. I read there are two basic types, 'aptx' and 'aptx LL'. I just bought a pair of aptx not the 'LL'. The lag is about 6" with the small coil on a 2-3 second left to right...

    Equinox and hearing aids pairing

    After working in the oil fields when a kid, flying in P5Ms in the Navy, then working in the Potash mines for a few years in New Mexico with all the blasting we did, then wearing a headset as an air traffic controller for 15 years (retired with 35 years FAA), my ears have considerable low freq...

    A question regarding 'local' and 'global' settings

    For over a month I failed to see that I had 'notched out' 25, 26, 27 and 28. So I notched them back in, all black around the arc. But, when I shut the machine off and turn it back on the same old 'notched out' is there so I have to notch them in. I thought in 'local' the changes would be...

    screen washouts/blackouts in hot sun

    Happened to me today, 97 and humid. Hunting in the sun for about 3 hours and I started to notice the numbers fading into the background, sort of all numbers either very lightly on at the same time. Could not make out any VDI at all, tones were good though. Went in the truck in the AC and in...

    Tuning the tone bins

    A question about what happens in order to get 5 useful bins, if you set the first bin from -9 to +10, then the nickel bin, then a third bin for 14-17, then the 4th bin for 19-24, and the 5th for 25 up. What happens then if you hit the horseshoe button and disc out the iron signals. Do you...
