    Some stores now not taking cash ! OH NO !

    One of our chain grocery stores is no longer giving change back, just a credit for your next visit. So if you are just passing through you could have just gave them 1 to 99cents. So why is there a change shortage right here before the election in Nov?:shrug: Heard something about they are...

    CO - 47

    Going with Elmy, the depth is another level of disc. My brother and I have been using the depth for several years now and it just gives another level of testing each target to dig or not to dig. Ron in WV

    Beach coils: anyone else getting to 31 SENS?

    I hate to mess with your test garden but my brothers and I have already went through that several years ago. For starters a fresh buried item will not act like a item that has been in the ground a bunch of years. The ground you put them in may have something near the target buried, that will...

    Beach coils: anyone else getting to 31 SENS?

    Thought I should correct myself, I checked my charts this morning and I haven't tested the little 6x8 coil in Auto sensitivity and I hadn't tested the 13" coil up in the higher levels of Auto sensitivity. So here is pictures of my charts and you can see for yourself. Ron in WV

    Beach coils: anyone else getting to 31 SENS?

    That would be correct, now that is with the 11" stock DD coil that came with the detector. Now for +1, +2, +3 in auto sensitivity, it was factored in, the machine would not reach those higher sensitivity settings at say A or +1, I had to keep raising my + number until I got the higher numbers I...

    Beach coils: anyone else getting to 31 SENS?

    I am nowhere near a beach but I was doing some testing and in auto sensitivity I was able to get the machine up to 31 by swing high off the ground. So I think your machine is okay. Basically sand has no minerals so it is like me holding the coil off the ground. But I was looking at the manual...

    First silver

    What a coin to start off your silver finds. Congrats I have been hunting since the 70's and still looking for my first Barber Half. Ron in WV

    E-Trac kHz setting???

    Yep those pop cans and just the can tops drive us nuts. Here is pictures of my disc patterns for all to see and use if wanted. Ron in WV

    E-Trac kHz setting???

    Thanks, but I think I will hold 4 tones for a backup until I give what you gave me with multi tones a good work out. I am at least a couple of weeks away from a actual hunt, still doing the care taker thing for my wife. About all I can do now is go out in the yard and throw down a few coins. I...

    E-Trac kHz setting???

    Hearing is shot, my wife says I suffer from selective hearing. I did the countdown and couldn't hear any difference in the 2 coins. I put it back to 30 for the next hunt in maybe 2 or 3 weeks, just got the wife home from 8 days in the hospital and a pretty bad sugary. So I am pretty much care...

    E-Trac kHz setting???

    Thanks, I did see that pattern and that didn't seem to have a lot of magic showing there. Upper right corner for silver and it looked like a little open area for nickels. Thanks, Ron in WV

    E-Trac kHz setting???

    Looking to ice the cake, any leads as to how I can get a look at that silver killer pattern that was talked about in video Elmy posted? Ron in WV

    E-Trac kHz setting???

    Elmy, You got my attention with the video above, I am all in. I check my settings to see how close I was. The Threshold Pitch was 24 changed to 30. My Variability was already set to 30. Noise was set at 2, changed that to 1. I did notice his machine was set on Conductive Sounds and he was...

    E-Trac kHz setting???

    All I can say is none of this is supported in the operating manual. Page 31, Noise Cancel looks for a channel to minimize interference to the machine. So it smooths the operation of the machine, it doesn't say for silver hunting run low Noise numbers and for gold run high Noise numbers...

    Out in the country

    Well this is brother WV62, and the site we were hunting is one of my old hunting spots from back in 1984. It's about an hours drive from our area so I only hunted it 3 times. I found back then 4 silver dimes and all were in the 40's. Brother SL52 was keeping track of coin dates yesterday that we...

    New hunter

    Can't say for sure, but if you are finding pull tabs you should be getting coins and I would say you are doing nothing wrong. My guess is you are hunting in a place were somebody is keeping the area you are hunting cleaned of coins. Now a couple of suggestions, keep looking for new spots that...

    Anyone been/felt threatened while detecting?

    Well while hunting the river bank flood wall with a Whites hip mount detector, I was coming to a line of high weeds and this guy rushes me from the weeds. With no time to think the coil shaft went to full home run swing. The guy decided he didn't want to damage my detector and he made a sudden...
