    Just picked up a clean used CTX 3030

    I owned the Etrac from 2008 until the CTX came out in 2012. While it was and is a great detector, found my 1st Confederate Civil War button with it being a SC at an old house site, the fe numbers were all over the place, screen resolution wasnt as good, no target trace. To me, FBS2 and the CTX...

    Just picked up a clean used CTX 3030

    Congrats! I haven't had a CTX since 2017. Had one from the time they came out in 2012 until then. Kinda missed it, Minelab ran a pretty good sell and included both the stock 11 and 6 inch coils, I couldn't resist! CTX is old, its heavy, but its still AWESOME! The pinnacle of FBS technology...

    Gone Back To A NEW Nox 800.

    I have to agree with the OP. I traded a CTX for the Equinox with all the coils as a pre-order when it first came out in 2018. I am a relic hunter in East Tennessee where we have some pretty highly mineralized clay soil. I immediately started finding more and better with the Equinox. Have made...

    I may have just cracked rhe "mystery" of the Xterra Pro on the beach....

    Every one EXCEPT the KNOWN single frequency machine in this bunch, the go-find and its very narrow 7.4-8.2khz. Mmm hmmm, explain why the ONLY "other" single frequency machine in this bunch has such a Narrow range but all the Fbs and Multi Iq SMF machines have such a wide range and the Xterra Pro...

    Ok, I dont mind being called a "conspiracy theorist", because as with most of those things, given enough time the "conspiracy" will then be uncovered as "truth".

    I may have just cracked rhe "mystery" of the Xterra Pro on the beach....

    I think the Xterra Pro is an amazing machine at an astronomical value. I do not believe the secret to its success is simply using 8khz, and I dont like to be pissed on and told that its raining. Do you really believe every detector manufacturer in the history of metal detecting has not tested...

    Yeah 3-18khz. About 15 khz. NOT 3-143 like the Multi-iq AND Xterra Pro show.

    All that "word salad" still doesn't explain why on a known single frequency detector from Minelab the range is very very narrow, like 1 khz, but on alllll the Fbs and Multi-iq and Pi machines its very similar to the Xterra Pro. Y'all are trying to "explain" away what is very obvious.

    Show me that documentation then and I will believe it. Funny that the single frequency go find has a very narrow range of frequencies. But show me some printed literature from Minelab backing up what you "say".

    I may have just cracked rhe "mystery" of the Xterra Pro on the beach....

    You dont understand the point? Look at the Go-find, an "actual" single frequency detector and look at the range of frequencies listed, now look at the Xterra Pro. It has an almost identical range to the Equonox and Vanquish, both detectors using Multi-iq. Why such a large range on a single...

    I may have just cracked rhe "mystery" of the Xterra Pro on the beach....

    Look at this "safety brochure" packed in with a brand new Minelab detector I just received. Look at the frequencies used on the different machine. Look at the Go-find, a single frequency machine, has a very narrow range, look at the Equinox, Vanquish, CTX 2 Multi-iq and an FBS machine, now look...

    Xterra Pro Beach Mode - is Minelab hiding its Dual Frequency?

    Check this out... Look at the frequencies the Xterra Pro operates on. Pretty much proves to me its smf, because look at the go find, a single fx machine, very narrow frequency range. This is from safety pamplet packed in with a minelab metal detector.

    Xterra Pro Beach Mode - is Minelab hiding its Dual Frequency?

    I think its definetely more than just "using 8khz". The single frequencies available are 5,10 and 15. So why not just use 5 for beach mode, why add in 8?? The Manticore uses 5,10,15,20 and 40. Beachmode is Multi only. So if 8khz was so "magical" why not offer it as a single fx mode on their...

    Are the Equinox coils that work with Xterra Pro better then stock coil - do they help stabilize the VDI?

    Expanded scale + single frequency = little more jumpy scale. We all have been spoiled by lock on id's from multi frequency machines. Single frequency detectors have always been a little "jumpy" but if the numbers remain within 2 or 3 either way of a recurring number its likely a solid target...

    NEED some feed back on the X-Terra pro

    I'm just going by what I'm reading on the interwebs. Will have one soon and I can confirm or deny 💯%

    NEED some feed back on the X-Terra pro

    That says VANQUISH cannot be used on EQUINOX, says NOTHING about the Xterra Pro. Why would they need to work on the Equinox to work on the Xterra Pro??

    Why no Manticore forum?

    Wonder why theres not a stand alone Manticore forum on here like the other models??

    Why all the 800 hate?

    I have owned since Feb 2018. Used submerged in rivers, lakes, oceans, never a leak. Have found amazing finds in my relic sites as well. Best machine Iever.owned.
