    Sling/Harness for Equinox 800?

    To add on to my original comment, and also ditto what WaterWalker posted, I purchased a second “J” rod and my Pro-Swing has one on both sides to allow me to effortlessly and quickly use either right-hand or left-hand swing. I can easily go out for a full day of detecting and not wind up with...

    Where are all the CTX users?

    The Andy Sabisch book and YouTube videos will help to get you acquainted with the CTX-3030, but time in the field with your CTX and you will learn its full potential. It’s going to take time and patience to truly understand it. Happy hunting.

    Sling/Harness for Equinox 800?

    I have Minelab’s Pro-Swing 45 that I use with my CTX and I will often use it with my Equinox 800. Yes, the PS-45 is higher priced, but the framing in it distributes the weight better than an over the shoulder sling in my opinion.

    I’ve never updated my machine…

    When I did the first update it seemed like the zinc penny TID changed to the dime TID range, but hey, it’s clad coin. Silver still rang up where I needed it. I’ve upgraded to the latest firmware (last year I believe) and I haven’t noticed any negative issues.

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

    Sorry to see you leave, CD. Just ignore the haters and keep doing what you love doing with the equipment that you want to use. Some people will always have a negative opinion about everything.

    Minelab E-TRAC in "Like New" Condition

    I am selling my meticulously maintained and rarely used Minelab E-TRAC metal detector. As a disclaimer, I am the second owner of this detector, and the first owner was as fastidious as I am about the care of the detector. I purchased the CTX-3030 and Equinox 800 not long after I purchased my...

    Is it true?

    I'm planning on posting mine this evening that I've only used about three times. It is in excellent, like new condition and will post several pics. The machine pretty much looks like it just came out of the box. If you like to see it first I can PM them your way. The only reason for selling...

    First hunt with the new Nox

    Best of luck. The Nox is a great detector.

    Pendant @ old site

    Neat find. What did it ring up as on your CTX, and was it a pretty solid tone?

    First silver of the year and it’s a 1881 half dime !

    Nice find. Great way to start 2022. Congrats.

    XP DEUS II GETS THE GOLD ! AGAIN!

    Bummer on the ring, but any day detecting on the beach is a good day.

    Got 2 more today!

    Congrats. I won’t be seeing any weather that warm for a couple of more months and hopefully I can get an earlier start this year.

    Should I, or Shouldn’t I?

    I have an E-TRAC that I’ve only used a few times that I’ve been thinking about parting with, but another side of me is saying to hold onto it because it’s an iconic machine. I wound up getting a CTX-3030 and an Equinox 800 shortly after buying the E-TRAC and they’ve been my go to machines ever...

    Advice on used Equinox

    Go with the warranty machine. The carbon fiber shaft isn’t that much to purchase for the Nox.

    Drowned ATP and question about repair

    My AT-Max was my first detector and it was a great starter machine for me. It is now my backup machine to my Minelab detectors. I will also bring it out if I have a friend who wants to get his feet wet, figuratively speaking, with metal detecting since it’s a nice, easy, and uncomplicated...

    Detector storage

    Ham radio guy here, AE0IT, and you’re correct about how we like to display our equipment in our ham shack. However, my metal detectors are tucked away in one of my closets along with all of their associated coils and gear. I guess I could set up a display area for them in my shack. 🤔

    Etrac weight!

    I completely agree. I always use my Pro-Swing harness, even with my lightest detector, the Equinox 800, because it lessens the fatigue in my shoulder and elbow. It’s a must with my CTX-3030. I rarely use my E-Trac, but when I do, I use it with it as well.
