    Found 2 years ago

    That's great. My wife lost her wedding ring years ago when we went on a holiday in Queensland here. We were planning for ages to use some gold I found metal detecting on our Victorian Goldfields to get another made. Not that I never found enough, just for years we never got around to finding...

    Added a 14 inch mono coiltek coil to my TDI question?

    I once owned a TDI here in Australia and tried a number of coils on it but never recall the audio being any different. There is no reason not to use a bigger coil from my experience. Yeah I used a mono 14 and found nuggets with it. I wonder if the audio difference is it being one of the earlier...

    Detectors that have stood the test of time.

    For sure the Minelab Xterra 705. I back it in here in Australia for coins and relics on our goldfields. I even back it in against the Garrett 24k I have amongst junk for gold. I had a Nox 800, it was great in quiet areas, but id back the Terra 705 being able to chop n change through settings on...

    Whites tdi depth while prospecting for gold

    Tejon is VLF. I own a Garrett 24k VLF. It has increased Voltage to the coil, around 50%, but that does not equate to 50% more depth. It just gives a bit more stability and sensitivity. Increase in depth is minimal. But it does give some more sensitivity to small gold. And I mean small, speck...

    dues 2 finds rare gold coin

    Thats great but.....to look I had to click on cookies which tracks and trades. Also the person found the coin not the detector (add for Dues) many many other detectors could have found it. Even much older ones with a good operator. This is advertising. Just a link. Nothing else.

    What do you do with a guy who digs deep holes and leaves his trash behind ???

    Australia, gets shortened to Aus, then again to OZ. 😁 We're a bit lazy here with our language at times. 😆

    Whites "Flagship" Detector ?

    For me it was the Goldmaster series with VSat control. Was a game changer in variable ground to speed up the threshold recovery from mineralisation changes. I recently got a Garrett 24k. It was Whites last Goldmaster and when Garrett took over Whites they continued the 24k. They even kept the...

    What do you do with a guy who digs deep holes and leaves his trash behind ???

    Sadly here in Oz, these days id say 80% of recent digs on gold in the goldfields are left open. Now n then covered in but majority are left as they dug them.

    Loud Mine Detecting event

    I read the title and thought "huh...what!?" One blew up! 😖

    Anyone Still Using The 70 or 705?

    Wouldn't part with mine either. I have recently got a Garrett 24k for gold and its very good. But for coins and relics I love the 705. The 705 is still very capable on gold though and to be honest id trust its id for gold amongst junk over the 24k.

    XT 18000

    It is. I used all from Xt1600 to the 1800 Best depth I found testing in bad Aussie ground and on undug targets I detected comparing Ft1600, 1700 and 1800 was this. 20khz with the 10" DD. That combo went actually deeper than the lower khz 6.4 which Minelab says is the deepest on bigger targets...

    Minelab F-3 - designed for detecting land mines

    They used to modify the F3 here in Oz for gold detecting a number of years ago. They were in roughly the same league as an SD2100.
