JimT Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 I thought about this I am sure we can all learn something about each other and maybe remember who to reach out to if we find ourselves in a situation that we can draw from everyone’s experience what do you mainly detect? Dirt, Beach, Water, Parks or something I missed me dirt relics occasionally I will coin hunt but not very often items searched for ? Jewelry, Coins in general, old coins at cellar holes, relics pastures and house sites swing speed? Fast or slow me faster than I probably should swing height? Scrub the ground, coil raised i scrub the ground favorite Frequency to hunt in ? from the ML line 7.5 kHz for deep stuff 18.75 kHz for small stuff I don’t know about the Tarsacci yet but I will hopefully have it in hand next week. Throw stuff out here on this thread. Y’all have been super helpful on my first post and would like to know each a little better and what you like to look for. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ridge Runner Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 Hot dog Jim if we tell you everything we know then you’ll know more than we do.haha I’ve always hunt with the coil lowest to the ground as I can get .My swing is slow and listening for those signals that’s hard to hear . I hunt anywhere I can and for anything I dig up. My first love is hunting around old home places. Being I worked for the phone company that helped to get access to a lot. I know one place that at one time had maybe a fairgrounds that closed up about 1945 and that was a great place to hunt. The detector I started out hunting with was a BFO and then TR both from whites. I did make one before theses but not sure what it was. I’ll add more later. Chuck 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ridge Runner Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 Midalake That’s the way it is as one gets older in we forget. Hey Jim If and when you get a Tarsacci you will find it loves gold . It’s well made. When you push the on button you don’t have to hold it down until it comes alive. You push it’s on and the same powering it down. You don’t have to remember what a I-con stands for because you don’t have any. You have a abbreviated word for each mode are setting that’s easy to understand. You will find the voltage drain is low and slow. If the battery goes out you have a backup that’s furnished. You don’t have to run looking for a UBS port . Sorry I got sidetracked.

JimT Posted May 7, 2021 Author Share Posted May 7, 2021 Mine will be shipped to me tomorrow. Wouldn’t have a chance to use it this weekend anyway they are calling for rain starting tomorrow. Time to go back and watch more videos, take notes and make some flash cards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ridge Runner Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 Jim Be sure to join the Tarsacci forum if you haven’t already. All those videos that Aaron has gone to the trouble of making is a great help. If you can’t get out when you get your Tarsacci it’s not like lots of other detectors I’ve yet to find anything inside that bothers it. The Best To You Jim !
