    SOLD...on TTF!

    Went to a ghost town yesterday and started the day hunting in Bill S's trashy park program which is what I normally use in ghost towns. Worked OK, got 1 1965 dime (missed silver by one year!), then pretty much spent the next hour listening to nulls and the occasional interesting target. In the...

    OK, seriously...just between us.......

    I keep seeing people post about that SWEEEET sound of silver. Maybe (OK - certainly) my hearing isn't what it once was, but I can't say with certainty that the 12-47 under my coil is a silver dime because I get that same reading for a clad dime. Same for quarters. I like the high tone the dimes...

    Make the leap...or wait - opinions wanted

    After seeing the difficulties so many people encountered with the first generation of the Garrett AT Pro, I have to wonder whether I should take the plunge now with the CTX or wait to see if there is a second generation CTX which might be better. I have few complaints with the Etrac and am...

    6x8 SEF versus 4.5x7 Excelerator

    I use the 4.5x7 Excelerator about 90% of the time on my Etrac. I think the deepest coin I've found with it is about 8 inches. What would I gain, if anything, by getting the 6x8 SEF? Thanks for your opinons/comments. Phillip

    Show of Hands - How many use ONLY the Etrac for ALL their land hunting?

    As you can see by my "signature" I currently have 4 machines. I wonder, especially in an Etrac forum, how many people own just the Etrac and use it exclusively for all their land hunting 'needs'? I never thought I'd say it, but I'm seriously considering it for myself. The M6 has found more...

    Curious about coin ratios....

    I've been hunting yards almost exclusively since the first of the year. Thus far, I've found 18 silver dimes (9 each of Mercs and Rosies), but only 1 silver quarter. Is that a fairly normal ratio? I'm not complaining mind you. This is the most silver I've ever gotten in this short a time period...

    When do you do a reset?

    First off, I bought my Etrac used. So I've been questioning whether or not I bought somebody else's problem. After watching the Etracs on YouTube and reading the discussions here, I've pretty much determined that my machine is doing things others don't. My best example of this is when I'm...

    What are your weirdest finds?

    Stringfrenzy's unusual find (See "12/31 The final cut...new years eve hunt...") got me started thinking about weird finds I had made over the years. We're always showing each other our best finds. Let's talk about some of our weirder finds. Pics too if you got 'em. I don't have pics yet of mine...

    Interesting tidbit...

    Last night about this time - possibly a little later, I went to several forums on this site and clicked the "Mark Forum Read" button on each. When I came back this evening, I was curious to see how many new postings were on each of the forums I visited. Etrac: 69 Garrett ATPro/ATGold: 33 Whites...

    Request Input for the Technically Challenged! :confused:

    Having done a bit of coil research, I'm actually considering purchasing a Joey coil from Coiltek. It boggles my mind that Coiltek coils are not waterproof. So, here's my question: If I get a non-waterproof coil and accidentally get it wet, will it just damage the coil, or can it damage both...

    Looking for coil opinions/advice

    Due to my detector trading, I now have 4 coils for my Etrac: the stock coil, a 10x12 SEF, the 8" Minelab and the 6" round DD Excelerator. I use the stock coil and the Excelerator a lot. I've used the 8" a few times and have yet to even try the SEF. One of the things that I find most irritating...

    Couple of questions regarding Etrac operations....

    I don't recall these having been asked (or answered) in any of the posts I have read, so here goes: 1) Oftentimes, I will sweep over a target, hear tones, but see no numbers displayed on the first pass. Sometimes I will resweep it several times before being given any numbers and there have been...
