    My Manticore tone chart

    Good, I wish we had more option of saving settings & felt when I do make changes I would need a way to refer back later to something I liked better. It is easier to pull the settings off the charts for me. Same goes with the Deus when u do updates u have to copy a long list of settings to do over.

    Slide hill

    It was very windy and cold from blowing over snow on the nearby mountains. Just wasn’t in the mood for deep targets. You’re right though I have retrieved silver all around the area & found plenty of rings.

    My Manticore tone chart

    Decided I needed to create a chart to give me a perspective on where I could use some discrimination if needed. I don’t discriminate usually. I like five tones all regions but made a few changes from the stock settings. I used targets I have found at the settings you see. Yours might look...

    Slide hill

    I hit a local slide hill after it appeared to have been hit already pretty good. Most of the targets were shallow dug. Found my 1st presidential dollar of the year and my 1st rubber ring ! Nothing to rave about but was good to get out.

    Lady finds gold coins in a dumpster!!!

    With today’s media you only get partial stories. They go for the shock factor. I have seen people dumpster dive. Yuk.

    Minelab Manticore First Gold Ring Find

    Thanks for the numbers. I have found several mid size 10-14 K bands in the 26-28 tid range. I find the large men’s rings ring up 59-61 near zinc cents. The higher caret rings 22-24 k come in 79-80.

    Minelab Manticore First Gold Ring Find

    Curious what the tid was. My first ring I found was also split and was white gold 14 k. It read 6 but if you pinched it together it read 11.

    Question on the Xp ORX coils

    They didn’t want too read the word Manticore.

    Question on the Xp ORX coils

    Not you I was referring to. It was the non contributors.

    Question on the Xp ORX coils

    My apologies for wandering a little off topic with my support with answering Your query. I never once recommended you consider the Manticore or imply you ditch the Orx. This is a detecting forum and I have read many posts where topics frequently shift somewhat to other machines. Didn’t think in...

    Question on the Xp ORX coils

    I’m copying 3 pages from the Orx manual that only shows the HF coils and the X35 coils for the Orx. No mention of the earlier coils from the Deus1. I was lucky my son bought the Manticore for me. I may not be a quick study as some but I have it and want to learn it well. Really like the D2...

    Question on the Xp ORX coils

    I’m in Utah. Can’t fault people for Minelab’s shortcomings. I really like it but at my years I struggle with the concept and all the bells and whistles. As with detecting in general, it takes patience. I over came the headphone issue with my own wireless setup and earbuds. Sure it’s pricey. But...

    Question on the Xp ORX coils

    Good to know. Getting too old to prospect but can swing a stick just fine. I ‘m posting a picture of my trailer I bought and rebuilt from the axles up during Covid. Took me 10 1/2 months. It’s a 1965 Santa Fe. Now as new and ready for the trip soon as spring hits.

    Question on the Xp ORX coils

    That’s quite alright by me no offense was taken in your asking. I forgot to mention the Manticore video was made in northern Nevada on a gold nugget hunt. They showed it picking out nugget flakes less than a gram. The tid was in the 3-4 range in shallow ground. Not saying they weren’t planted...

    Question on the Xp ORX coils

    I still have my D1 and the elliptical is my favorite coil on it so have no thoughts of letting it go, sorry. The Orx with its two gold programs should make a nice back unit for prospecting. I recently saw a video of the Manticore with the new 8x5.5 coil that was very impressive. But try and...

    Question on the Xp ORX coils

    I have the Orx and the hf elliptical coil and the 9” X35 coil that work with it. Also I think it has to have a different backphone than the D1. It’s been a while since I played with it.

    Question on getting the basic deus II without remote to start with

    That’s why I’m still detecting. It is unbelievable when you wait and they still keep coming. I know it’s off topic but is a real concern. Hoping I make it to 82.

    Question on getting the basic deus II without remote to start with

    Understandable. I had a scooter and a mount on the luggage carrier for the D2. It was great and cheap on gas too. Than after Covid the law got slack and traffic laws ignored like crazy so I sold the scooter. Too many people running red lights. Safer in my truck. Be careful out there. HH

    Question on getting the basic deus II without remote to start with

    If you wait to buy the remote you will be paying more because when you buy the D2 and remote the WS6 comes with it. The remote has more features , and two more programs than the WS6. The WS6 has no backlight and difficult to see unless u have the wrist strap . However I use the WS6 way more than...

    XP Deus 2 in Tot Lots

    True, the D1 with the elliptical coil is the ticket.
