    Clean up with the MXT -

    Saturday I had the chance to re-hunt the yard of an old framed farm house built approximately 1900. This was my 4th visit, but the first with the MXT. I started with my 5.3 coil, relic mode, Iron ID (2 tone + all metal), GB running, just a little threshold, sensitivity at +1. Initially, I...

    What Brings You Here?

    I've been detecting with A LOT of different people over the decades. I have to say it's a lot of fun to meet new people and get to know them. Even more fun to be on adventures with them. Interesting to think about what makes us pick up a detector in the first place and then what keeps us coming...

    MXT Finds Great Pyramids

    I had the opportunity to spend a few days checking out some old ghost towns with friends from all over the West. Had a great time and as always, a learning experience for me to hunt the Ghost Towns as I've spend most of my detecting time hunting the yards of old homes and occasionally poking...

    After two years and a dozen detectors now have a v3i again

    Did you save any of the other detectors? Or have they gone the way of all detectors that we have high expectations of that didn't work out? Rich -

    Maiden Voyage for New MXT

    What an incredibly hot day for the maiden voyage of my 'newly acquired' MXT All Pro. I had the day off work so a short road trip was in order and a favorite location was the destination. Being that it has been SO dry around my parts, it was best to pass on the usual permission at an old home for...

    Still Looking - Bucket List -

    Like many of you, I've had a bucket list for metal detecting since I started this waaaay back when. My list leans towards coinshooting as that has been my main interest. Depending on where we live, some items are easier to come across. For example, older areas of the country are more likely to...

    Sovereign Toggle Switch rubber boots

    Several years ago, I picked up some rubber toggle boots for my XS-2a Pro from a forum member. I've misplaced the Name and I am finding nothing in my PM's. Now I'm in need of another set of 4 for a GT. Believe I picked up a 550 to 180 meter conversion kit from the same fellow. Any help...

    CZ-6a Rescue is a Success

    Several weeks ago I picked up a non-working CZ-6a off the bay as a bit of a project. When it arrived, I opened in up and checked out the guts and determined it would need a couple parts replaced to get it up and running again. I made a call to Keith at East Texas and after explaining what I had...

    CZ Performance based on control box/coil combo?

    I've been going back thru the CZ pages looking for an answer to this question and I've not found it. Hope a few of you CZ die-hards might know the answer. Has anybody out there with multiple CZ's with measured performance ever swapped the 8" coils and re-measured to see if there is a change...

    Sterling Angel

    After a couple of failed attempts to hunt some old houses (nobody home), I went to plan C and went to an old city park to stretch my detecting legs and see if I could turn up a few old coins. Rain is on the horizon, so I didn't think I would have long. Spent the first hour running through...

    Found first 50 cent piece.

    Congratulations! :clapping: Larger denomination coins aren't carried around much anymore, with paper currency and even debit and credit cards being favored. The big coins were used much more frequently back in the silver days and if you keep at it, and hunt the right places, you'll come...

    1st Walking Liberty Half 1917

    Love Big Silver. :thumbup: Nice Job. My buddy invited me to hunt a tear out being made by the city. He had gained permission from the contractor to hunt around the foundation before final digging with the excavator. We parked in front of the old house and hunted for a couple hours. I managed...

    Picked Up a Pocket Spill today

    Finally managed to get the E-trac out of the closet for only the second time this year. A little embarrassed that I've been so slack about hunting. It took a pestering phone call from a best friend to get me out the door. We agreed to meet at one of our old stomping grounds. Once I found where...

    F/S Cheap! Couple extra detector bags. :crazy:

    Closet clean out time at my house. Seems that stuff that hasn't been used in a while is having to find a new home. :ranting: Anyway, I have a couple older style used detector bags, one generic, the other a White's Electronics. Both need a new home. Looks like they can handle a coil size in...
