    Public park gives up 8 silvers.

    Dan, That is amazing -- 8 silvers from a public park is darned rare, anymore. Incredible, and GREAT job hitting your 100 mark! Steve

    WANTED -- inexpensive AT Pro, condition unimportant (even not working is acceptable)...

    Hi all; I'm looking for an inexpensive Garrett AT Pro; it doesn't even have to be working, and all I really need is the control box (shaft and coils not required -- I need the control box to use as a "template" for a new shaft project I'm working on). I will consider all offers and will...

    Deep nickel VDI numbers

    I have to agree with jkline...the EQX is not the best choice of machines, if you are trying to cherry-pick deep nickels. Way too many other targets ID exactly in the nickel range on the EQX; they are MUCH easier to cherry-pick at depth with FBS. On an Explorer, with stock Pro coil, I could...

    Cautiously Considering A Nox

    jkline -- lowering your iron bias MAY give you MORE "high-tone squeaks" to investigate. I am sure you already know this, but what iron bias does is takes a "mixed" high-tone/low-tone target (either a coin co-located with a piece of iron, OR a nail that wants to report both iron tones and high...

    Cautiously Considering A Nox

    jkline -- OK, got it. That makes sense, that you feel that the Equinox gets you about 90% of what you would dig, if using the CTX. Interesting, your results. It may be a "dirt" thing, where your soil is more suited to FBS. In my dirt, the results are a bit different, but that shouldn't be...

    Cautiously Considering A Nox

    jkline, Are you saying that you feel your Equinox is missing 10% of the silver coins that your FBS machines would see, or that it is missing 90%? I THINK you are saying you feel FBS would "see" 10% more of the silver coins than the Equinox does, but just wanted to clarify. One thing I will...

    Cautiously Considering A Nox

    Thanks Mark! As you noted, disassembly of the handle assembly from the shaft, will quickly verify everything I said, above. The waterproofing begins well up inside the handle, up at the battery door, NOT in the hollow, lower portion of the handle assembly. Steve

    Cautiously Considering A Nox

    NOT to hijack this thread, so please forgive me, Rob183, but -- there is something I feel compelled to address here. silvercoinboy, I am really disappointed that a Minelab rep actually said this to you, as it is entirely not factual. Period. If this is actually what was said by this rep, then...

    14 d today

    WOW, Jeff! NICE dig, and not only that, but it looks better than 99.9% of wheats that ever come from my dirt...excellent condition for a dug copper coin! Congrats! Steve

    Nox finds it's oldest coin this morning!

    Nox nickel hunts

    sube -- thanks for the post. I'm glad to hear your "nickel to trash" ratio. Everyone always talks about how "good on nickels" the Equinox is, but for me personally, I have always felt I must be missing something -- as I dig alot of trash at 12/13, when targeting nickels. So, hearing you...

    What a beauty

    Another TERRIFIC dig, Jeff! WOW!! Steve

    Banged out 3 in a row

    Wow, the amount of gilding on that button is pretty amazing. Great digs, Jeff. That cabin site has really been giving up the goods, for you! Steve

    Detector Prospector & Treasurenet Down?

    Steve is away, and I'm sure will do whatever repairs are needed on his site, when he returns... Steve

    The Nox lost today...

    fwcrawford -- that 1859 is a "fatty" Indian Head, different composition of metals from the newer ones, and that's why it read 16, vs. the normal 19-20. Fatties read lower than regular IHPs... Steve

    Flying like an Eagle

    CONGRATS, Jeff! What a terrific dig! That coin remains on my bucket list! :) Steve
