    Loss of long time forum friend Monte Berry 😥

    That's a great idea! I have only a few printed and PDF from some of his posts way back when. Here is a PDF download linked from his website; about coil skills. https://www.ahrps.org/_tipsAndTechniques/AudioTargetClassification.pdf

    Lost My Pin Pointer.... Damn It..! Need Advice

    This has become my solution for not leaving a pinpointer behind. I simply clip and tighten the safety nut (not me :) )to either my detecting harness, or to my pouch, etc. It is neon green and easy to spot from distance, should you unclip and then drop while detecting. I was so cheesed off when I...

    Decided on the Equinox 900

    Huh' I was just thinkin' as I sometimes do. Maybe my EQ800 shaft is out of line. This would explain why I am always going in circles. :)

    New version NOX / Old version NOX

    ditto --- same here with my EQ800 --- though I have not been in the surf or more than several feet from the shallow river shore with my machine - it rains plenty in Oregon and I can vouch for at least that much waterproof. :)

    New version NOX / Old version NOX

    I believe from what I have seen on a YouTube video that demonstrated leakage in a container of water, occurred around the maglock charging port. My EQ800 I noticed after seeing the YouTube Video looks to be a heftier and deeper recess around the maglock charging port. IMHO

    Sunray Freedom wireless headphones

    OUCH! I read up a bit on the Bluetooth LE, or BLE. Now my head feels like 'Krafwerk' song Computer Love spinning on a 78 rpm instead of the standard 45 rpm single. Oh, how it hertz, but... ...https://elainnovation.com/en/bluetooth-vs-bluetooth-low-energy-whats-the-difference/...

    Minelab Manticore

    IMHO --- Tones still rule, even with my bad hearing I can tell when a VDI does not match up with the tones I am hearing. For example, in some parks (read this as soil conditions too and wet/dry etc.) the VDI on my EQ 800 will contend the target is in the penny range, yet the tone tells me it is...

    I sure hope they have good volume. I will be watching this thread to see what the verdict is. TOO MUCH DIRT --- NOT ENUFF TIME nwdetectorist

    Welcome to 'Crack Alley' i.e. Portland, OR downtown river beach...

    Yeah, I have it in a baggie and perhaps later today I will see about where to safely dispose of the drugs. There is a police precinct very nearby and they may have a drop box. Otherwise, I will contact social services local hotline to ask where to go. thanks for reminding me doyle

    Welcome to 'Crack Alley' i.e. Portland, OR downtown river beach...

    Well, it is not nearly as bad as the national news would have you believe. That being said, we sure see a lot more disheveled and heavily drugged folks wandering the streets. Truth be told, the police whine they are understaffed because of financial cutbacks and turn the other cheek so to speak...

    Lesson possibly painfully learned.

    OH, how well I know that feeling of 'should have left it be'! I found a nice (like just lost from the bank 1872 IH Penny.

    Lower tone pitch for hearing impaired

    I remember with my White's XLT way back when, that I could shut off the 'modulation' in advanced settings to make all targets more or less the same volume, regardless of depth. I also turned the XLT tones down lower to make targets easier to hear. So... ...I don't have enough hours under my...
