    Anyone familiar with Vibra Probe 570?

    I recently purchased a used Vibra Probe 570, that I thought would be a compliment to my shallow water detector. I was wondering what distance from a target can be expected for the Vibra Probe to start vibrating. The one I bought (new alkaline battery installed) has to be within an inch (air test...

    Lesche Ground Shark

    Hello All, Just a couple of positive comments about W.W. Mfg (Lesche) concerning my Ground Shark digging tool. I purchased it brand new in the middle of April 2011, from a Detector shop in MA. The third time out with it, I must have hit a rock (plenty of those here, we're mostly glacial...

    MXT C&J mode threshold issue

    Hello All, Will someone comment on a minor issue that I have with my 2008 MXT, w/ 9 1/2" coil. Thanks in advance. When in C&J mode I get a wavering tone with threshold whether running at minimum threshold or a little higher. Turning Gain down from Preset does not change or eliminate the...

    Whites service centers

    Update on the Whites Service Center in Illinois. (Tony at Electronic Exploration) OUTSTANDING, is the word that comes to my mind. Shipped out V3i on Monday Jan. 17th, it was back in my hands here in Michigan on Jan. 21st. Serviced, and with a new D2 coil. That's a very quick turn around...

    what is the best coil to use in a semi trash beach for this v3i

    I use a Whites 4x6 shooter coil in heavy trash. It's slow progress with a small coil like that, but it will pick the silver/gold out of the trash. I don't hunt the beaches with my V3i, so my knowledge is limited there. But, the 4x6 works well in highly mineralized ground

    Whites service centers

    Has anyone used the Whites service center for the Midwest in Lombard, Illinois? I need to send in my Vision i, which is under warranty. Were the results what would be expected from the factory in Oregon or better/worse? I understand that the shipping time/cost would probably double from here...

    V3i problems?

    jeffery71, Did you get your falsing issue resolved? I too get falsing with the D2 coil, but not everywhere that I hunt. In my case it seems to be related to the international airport, even though I'm hunting about 15 miles from the actual airport. Seems like the when the aircraft are taking...

    EXcelerator or SEF coils

    I've been using the 10" D2 stock coil most of the time on my Vision i, with good results. I have a V rated 4x6, that I use around tree trunks and brushy places too. And, I've gotten ahead of the learning curve on this machine in the last two months, more to learn for sure. I am so glad that I...

    Help me ID this. (I hope I'm not cursed)

    I found this MD'ing. It's the most unusual thing that I've ever found. The metal is two parts, front & back attached together and looks like pewter. I don't believe that the hair is human, maybe horse hair??? Below the 'chin' is a Maltese cross. On the back side is what appears to be "OPD" with...

    V3i with wireless & Pinpointer II

    I was using the pinpointer in audio mode and the wireless headphones were picking up some "static" from it. I switched over to vibration mode and there was no static. Is this a normal condition? Can a tech savy person enlighten me on why this occurs?

    Thesaurus covers: OK for V3i?

    Update on Thesaurus covers: I purchased a set from the UK for the V3i. Very well constructed, wraps the pod & box very well. Also, a sewn in access cover for the battery compt. I was out yesterday and today, temps in the high 80s and humidity sky high. Originally, I was concerned with heat...

    What do detectorist use to put dirt on while digging a hole

    I use a 14'x14" piece of old denim (blue jeans), the fabric is pretty slick and not much dirt sticks to it. I carry that and my accumulated trash in an old skeet shooting pouch, it will hold about as much junk as I willing to dig.

    Thesaurus covers: OK for V3i?

    Does anyone use the Thesaurus covers made in the UK? Specifically on the V3i. Is there any heat retention problems wrapping the pod or battery box with the covers? Thanks in advance.

    F75LTD question

    Hi all, I'm not a Fisher user. So, this may be common knowledge to everyone else. Why do the large dealers (no names) list the F75LTD as available in May or June, when people on this forum already have one? And have had one since Oct2009. Is there an even newer version coming? I have had my...
