    Best Manticore mode for silver coins

    I have not been digging one way signals. With the ctx 95 percent of the time a one way was junk, are people not finding this true of the manticore? Are one ways a target to consider?

    Best Manticore mode for silver coins

    I actually find it kind of sad in a way that with all the advancements in technology with most electronics, in 13 years time since the ctx was introduced, Minelab couldn't come up with a detecter better than the e-trac or ctx for silver. As good and ahead of its time as the ctx was, you'd...

    F2 iron bias settings and Recovery speed??

    I'm a long time seasoned and successful CTX user who thought I'd give the Nox a go. It just arrived and trying to determine what I feel will be good settings for the area (Chicago) and the hunting I do, mainly old trashy parks. While reading over the forums, different web sites, and...

    Audio modulation on NOX

    I've used a CTX for the past 3 years with great results. However the weight is starting to take its toll. I'm thinking of jumping over to the NOX . My main concern is the audio modulation feature of the equinox. Is it pretty good on the NOX? with the CTX I mostly hunt open screen using...

    CTX replacement

    Any rumours, backdoor info, or hints that minelab is at least working on a flagship replacement for the CTX? The machine has been great and opened up many areas that were hunted out. Unfortunately the power of the CTX has nearly closed up many of these areas that were once again giving up...

    6" coil vs. stock 11"

    I've hunted a very old park in Chicago (Humboldt park) for several years now with the stock 11". When the areas I searched went dry I recently purchased a 17" coil. That coil did yield a few more old coins the 11" missed because of depth, but its very difficult and frustrating to use...

    New software update for CTX

    It's been years since Minelab has provided its customers a valuable software update for its flagship coin and jewelry detector. Anybody know if we can expect something in the near future? I think many of us would even be willing to fork out a little money if it gave us features we are...

    Park 1 or park 2?

    The manual says park one for coins. But Im reading from some folks that Park 2 for coins is the way to go. Thoughts? Also, anybody come up with a list of settings that will best enable this detector to find coins other detectors miss. Haven't found anything with the 800 in an area...

    Coin mode vs. Silver mode

    I've owned the CTX almost a year now, and have made some great finds (14 silver, 8 IH so far). However something I still don't understand is silver mode. How is it different from coin mode, my mode of choice. Does silver mode help to pull in more silver?

    Learning something new everyday

    I have about 25 hrs on my recent ctx purchase and have already landed a handful of wheaties, some silver, and a few indian heads. Yet everytime I go out there is something new I learn about the machine. Today I hunted an area that was the trashiest park i ever set foot on. With loads of...

    Ferrous-coin stuck curser

    Hi all, I'm a fairly new ctx owner with about 20 hours on the machine. My question is regarding the curser in ferrous coin mode. About 75% of the time it's stuck in the 12-38 or 12-40 position as I sweep the coil. Different targets in the ground will send it to other positions on the...
