    Coil Adapter

    I bought a coil with an intermittent cable connect with the intent of removing the circuit board for a coil adapter for maybe a Bigfoot coil. Well forget it! All the parts come off the board when it’s lifted. Pay the Russian guy (foxmd?) if you want to try this. I don’t know how he does it but I...

    CTX-3030 coil repair?

    I bought a 11” CTX coil that has an intermittent at the cable connection to the coil. Anyone ever repaired this problem and have any tips? Can I somehow save the stress relief or just start by slitting it lengthwise and fining the culprit wire.

    8 cell (12V) Alkaline pack vs the Li-ion 7.4V pack - ever use EBL AA's?

    I just had my second CTX-3030 battery pack die. The pack was dead - must have left the CTX on accidentally. It would not charge in the charger so I had to get the cells out and charge them in a dedicated cell charger - which worked. In the process of transitioning the cells from the pack I...

    Spectrum XLT rear display cover broken

    I discovered the rear of my Spectrum XLT's display pod cover is broken and the rest hanging from a ribbon cable. I don't see an obvious way to separate the cover from the front cover piece. Are there hidden screws, or do I pry and snap if off - what's the trick? Also I you know of a spare rear...

    Super modified CTX?

    My CTX is destroying my right elbow/forearm. I use the harness but my swings are agressive to cover ground and there is too much mass. I’m toying with the idea of totally restructuring the detector: Straight CF shaft. Coil cable extension. Display cable extension. Both cables attach to...

    Disable Saltwater and gain 2” depth

    I was running some air depth tests at a park and noticed that there was a 2” depth improvement going to Relic mode from Beach. What the deal? I saw that Relic had Saltwater disabled while Beach had it enabled. Went to Beach, set Saltwater to disabled, and got the extra 2”! See if you...

    GP/GPX coil experiment risk?

    I’ve read some messages indicating putting an incompatible coil on these machines could damage them. I tried a beach hog on my GP Extreme and it worked ok. Now I’d like to try the coil from my whites DF. Risky?

    Do you have a non-working CTX, TDI, or GPX?

    I'd be interested in a repair challenge of a CTX, TDI, or GPX. Has to be a really decent price as I may not be able to fix it. Run over by truck, water got where it's not supposed to, whatever.

    Aluminum shafts for water detectors?

    I just bought a surf DF and am looking to upgrade the shaft to a straight shaft. The original was an S shaft and all the paint had corroded off of it! I have a surf pi pro as well with a kind of crummy looking shaft. Is this corrosion because the previous owners did not wash their detector or...

    Auto vs Manual Noise Cancel

    I got curious about noise cancel on the CTX as I was doing pretty good at finding targets (not good ones though) but forgot to NC. It was a 10 but auto suggested I think a 2. A 2 brought on a beep of the sound of perhaps the last target found on just about every swing. I’ve had days where it...

    CTX volume too high

    I am aware that the CTX has two settings that affect volume - Gain and Level. I am finding that if I run earbuds on the WM10 the volume is too high if I have the Gain rather high. I think it is saturating the earbuds in fact for some frequencies. I can set the Level to one and it is still an...

    Pinpoint fade-out

    You know how pinpoint fades out as you sweep over the target? And you have to re-engauge it again to keep working? Does it have to fade out? Could Minelab have kept it consistent? They write about it like it is a feature and I find it annoying.
