    WTB Whites V3 or v3i

    I have a Whites V3i that was totally refurbished by the factory just before they closed down. I took it out of the box and air tested it, but it has not left my apartment. I also have a spare extra rod that has the 6x4 small elliptical coil on it. Message me with what you are looking to pay...

    garrett apex or simplex

    I own many detectors, the Simplex + and the Apex are among them. I live on the Treasure Coast in Florida, so the Apex is king on wet salt beaches among the two models. No comparison there. If I am hunting for relics inland, I prefer the Simplex over the Apex. I have others that I prefer over...

    Please list your favorite detector of all times

    I have owned so many since 1968, it is hard to choose one. But, I guess if it has to be one, I would say the White's V3i.

    Apex vs Vanquish - Separation Test

    Great video. I own several detectors, including a Vanquish, Apex and Equinox, among several others. I love the Apex as a beach hunter in the MF mode. You dig everything on the beach, so separation is not that important. Is it better than my Nox or Vanquish on a beach? Not quite, as it does not...

    Any one using the Simplex on wet salt sand or in the water?

    As Joe Black said, it is a great VLF machine for the money, but on wet salt beaches, it cannot compare to a multi-frequency machine. If you want a good beach machine for not a lot of cash, I recommend the Minelab Vanquish. I have a Simplex +, and I love it for hunting relics and cellar holes, etc.

    Back Soon With More Smart Plus Pro Updates

    Glad your feeling better, Richard. Two months ago, I had to have emergency surgery to remove my gallbladder. The surgery was the easiest part of the whole ordeal. I was in the hospital for three days for tests. Finally on a late Tuesday afternoon they took it out, and I went home 9 AM the very...

    GTI1500 Coil Question

    I have had my GTI 1500 for many year and it is one of the older models with the white coil. Is there any advantage to updating it to the 9.5 GTI Imaging Proformance Coil that was on the last couple years of GTI 1500 manufacture, and still used on the GTI 2500? They are not expensive, and just...

    Who will acquire Whites ?

    There is still the small company of Tarsacci who makes the very interesting Tarsacci MDT 8000 here in the USA. The owner is an immigrant who came from Bulgaria many years ago, and worked as an engineer for Fisher back before they sold out to FT. He quit when FT bought them and is now making his...

    Richard at Backwoods Detectors is the best!

    I just bought another machine from Richard and Backwoods Detectors. I forgot how many I have gotten from him over the years, but he has always treated me well and is such an honorable man to deal with. Thank you, Richard!
