    (Want to buy) WTB Whites TM-808

    How much do you want for it? Don't know much about them, but supposed to be similar to the TM-808, so might work. Jim

    What Backpack do you use

    I've used, for almost 40 years, an Alice pack, and lately on a Molle frame. Never let me down, and carries a huge amount of gear. That MOLLE frame is the most comfortable frame I've ever used. Jim

    Whites tdi depth while prospecting for gold

    Bobby, I'd say you've thought it out pretty good. I've been very conservative about money, all my life, too. And like you, I'm nearing 75 myself, so might as well live a little...LOL. I'm still not splurging on detectors, though. You'll like that Sadie. Hope you make some good finds, and will...

    Get the Sadie. I like the 8 x 11 for general work, but the Sadie is more sensitive. If you can't afford a Sadie, and given that some people don't like the dual-field coils, in my testing the Whites 7 1/2" DF is a very near-equal to the Sadie on tiny gold. Jim

    To wind the coils, you need to balance the correct inductance and the correct DC resistance. To do that, you need to look up the wire size and resistance charts on the 'net. Then do a search on inductance, and that should get you to some formulas for inductance vs number of turns of wire. You...

    What charts?
  17. J

    Whites tdi depth while prospecting for gold

    Actually, building mono coils for the TDI's is fairly easy. I don't recall offhand, but you can measure the inductance, and DC resistance of a factory coil, and match those characteristics with the coil you build. I built a 24" for mine, but rarely use it do it being too cumbersome, though it...

    Whites tdi depth while prospecting for gold

    I know absolutely nothing about any of the Tesoros. I don't even know if the Tejon is a PI. Increasing the voltage only benefits pulse-induction machines. Does nothing for VLF detectors. But VLF's can benefit from switching to rechargeable li-ion batteries, but only because they're rechargeable...

    That mod required a small, added, circuit board. As far as I know, nobody knows the circuit on that added board. Jim

    Whites tdi depth while prospecting for gold

    No. There are similarities between the circuits, but they are not identical. The main issue with the originals was the warbley threshold. The issue with the SL was a slow sweep speed for tiny targets, and lack of sensitivity. Jim
