I used to manage a couple of record stores (yes, vinyl records!) and hated when customers would come into the store and say, "I heard this song on the radio just now and I don't know any of the words or the title and I can't even hum...

    When was E-TRAC Firmware Upgraded by Minelab?

    Hello all! First, my apologies for asking a question I feel sure has been answered/discussed at length in this very forum. I tried a few different searches but must not be using the magic word/phrase to pull up the answer I seek (and yes, I tried "please" and "thank you" <smile>). After...

    Looking for late 1970's Catalogue or Brochures

    Good evening everyone, I'm having a bit of a nostalgia trip and looking for a picture/flyer of the first metal detector I paid for with my own hard-earned money...I was 16 at the time.

    Question - Years of Production for CZ5

    Hello all, I have been a fan of the CZ5 since I bought a used one back in '99 (I think). I was a silly, silly man and sold it 4-5 years later though. I am just curious, what were the years of production? I know it was introduced in '93 but when did production end? Were there any significant...
