    Happy CTX-iversary!

    I got mine september that year. It was a painful few months, utter confusion. In the end sold it. Then after a few months bought another. Went in for repair many many many time to minelab due to water leaks. Eventually they sent me a new replacement. I got over the learning curve. Designed...

    Anyone moved from the Nox 800 back to a CTX3030

    I use both detectors. The nox is great for just doing dry sand but serious detecting in sea is much better in my opinion with the CTX.

    Hey guys, you know what I just realized?

    It would be nice if minelab updated the excalibur for one that you can tell battery level, better performance but keeping it analog.

    excal coil

    I use the NEL thunder coil. Its a bit of fiddle to put on as you need to strip the excal. It a bit more expensive than a stock coil but lighter. however for me it gives a faster coverage of beach due to increase size. it does not like some of the waves as it falses but I prefer it over stock.

    Early CTX Detectors

    The very first CTX had a domed display. That soon went. then there was the rubber insert put into shaft to stop the wear updated armrest & battery seals came next, During the early days the internal seals were also updated to prevent water ingress.

    cz21 and lower shaft question with larger coil

    I have just acquired a 2nd hand CZ21. It has the larger 10" coil on it. (or is that 12") Anyhow the lower shaft on one side where the bolt goes through has a larger O ring recess on than the other, the other side has some worn ridging to stop the coil moving. The coil ears are different and...

    Who has one and a CTX ?

    Can someone who has the EQ and the CTX confirm if the headphone tread is the same on both machines or not. Ie an M12 I know it won't work as it needs a 3.5mm jack internally. I am going to make an adapter but want to know about the tread on the body so I can order the parts. thanks
