Got a new Etrac a couple weeks ago and have been getting my ears back in tune with some of the new tricks that Darrelld taught me. These were found at sites that we had pounded into oblivion.

Get used to it, the E will find the good stuff on a consistent basis. If it's there, you'll find it. Congrats on the great finds.

Hit pinpoint and recheck both directions again and see if the courser bounces from the bottom right to the upper right area of the screen. With a little practice you'll notice the courser will be bouncing up and down like it's trying to stay out of the blackened area. I never tried this with a coin program, just iron mask with the bottom third of the screen blackened out (2
