staying true to the rules I can edit my verse. how bout; "on the first day detecting my detector gave to me [ A cartridge buried underneath a tree ] . Now sing it! gr

On the first day of nugget huntin my detector gave to me a Cartridge underneath a rotten tree . GR

i call one Ladies Leg. and the other golden cucumber .

My Z-link was just delivered and I am now charging it up . I will keep you all posted but of course where I live its going to rain for 5 days strait.

I am hoping that it will work well with my 5000 , gold screamer. and killer bee head phones. even if it doesnt work well on that detector it is bound to work with one of my other detectors. the price is reasonable

I seen they are available now on the Garrett website . I ordered one from Metaldetectors.com . Im looking forward to trying this one out and cuttin the cord.

Scott please fill in your dig hole under the tracks. that must have been a big nugget

Great post Chet , Ive been looking to go wireless but I'm a little on the frugal side ,so if you have some spare time and could compare the Garrett z-link to the Pro Sonic wm , I will gladly buy you breakfast at Katrina's. Greg

Hi Brian, I have used both the 12x15 commander and the 17x13 evo and a 9mm slug is the equivalent of a 7.5 gram nugget. Im surprised to hear there is that much difference in depth between the two coils . maybe a good test would be to swap the coils out using the same detector to eliminate any nuances between different detectors. I'm looking forward to getting a Gpz someday. but my 5000 has been very loyal to me and she wouldn't like me cheating with another detector. greg

paid in full . please send to Steve Herschbach . Merry Christmas Steve!

the gold screamer uses a sony style camcorder battery , NP-F950 or 970 . these batteries are a replacement that are working great for me. they slide into the same receptacle as the original batteries that come with the gold screamer https://www.amazon.com/Wasabi-Power-DCR-VX2100-HVR-HD1000U-HXR-MC2000U/dp/B00FQ0RB92?th=1

Ive been using mine for 5 years and logged about 4000 hours of use . it has worked flawlessly for me .i never disconnect it and keep all wires in the same location. some friends of mine have had a few broken wire issues but they were always disconnecting the cable from the control box . the newer screamer cover keeps the power cable in a better spot than the older one. on the side verses the bottom. also i switched to Wasabi batteries from Amazon and have been very satisfied with their performance. 2 batteries and a charger for $59 . that my two bits good luck!

hi Peg, I wish you 4 bits of luck , [ that would be half that piece of eight] . see you when you get back to placer county. greg

I agree thats a great idea I hadn't thought of . I also carry a second detector with me an offer to let the land owner try his hand at detecting and give them a little lesson . I believe if you give you will receive

Ive found hundreds of them and I was sure each one was a sweet sounding nugget .. and when I felt the weight hit my hand I was even more sure it was sweet gold .. and just when I look to find and pick up my treasure …….I see lead.. my shoulders drop … I say a few words ..and its off to find the next target .. … the way things are going they may be quite valuable in the future so don't throw them away. cheers. greg
