Hi all,
I'm Chuck from Utah. I've been detecting since the early 80's Most of my finds has been with the Tesoro Inca. Among my best finds in a 1916d dime and a 1931s wheat. I call my Inca my bread and butter machine. I have never found a silver dollar though.
A few months back, I purchased the e trac. On my first outing, I found a merc and a silver ring. Since then, I haven't had very good luck. Just clad coins. I've re-read the manual many times over and I'm still confused about its operation. I think in time I'll get more use to it. It seems to be a very good detector. I have also read the manual by Andy a few times over. I tried creating a pattern with silver coins and a wheaty, Indian head penny and a buff. nickel. When I got to the park I loaded the pattern.
Ground cancelled and started detecting. I got some very high FE numbers like 35 and alot of false signals. I assume I did something wrong setting up the pattern. I set it up according to the instructions. Anyway I didn't find anything.
I just wanted to drop in and say Hi. It looks like people are finding alot of great finds back east. When I see people find nice finds it makes me wish I was back there too.
Cheers, Chuck
