Alluminati Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 Welcome. No worries, you have plenty of time to detect before the snow gets too deep. I am hoping for up to two more months myself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of good information here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Herschbach Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 Welcome to the forum. Hard to beat the Equinox as a all around detector. The main issue I am seeing is people think it is entry level due to the price but it is pure high performance. That means people tend to overdrive the settings when they really need to learn how to walk before running. I have been using mine longer than anyone and I am still getting better with it. It is a very simple machine to start with (the presets are great) but then it has lots of depth for tweaking to individual situations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

graz1 Posted November 1, 2018 Author Share Posted November 1, 2018 The machine arrived yesterday and I assembled it last evening. Read through the instructions at least twice and used some Youtube ideas for startup. Only concern was the GL80 headphone and WM08 module pairing. Turned out it was a lot simpler than the instructions would have you believe...Engineers write these books, not users. I'm ready to get out tomorrow IF we don't get the rain/snow mix that is forecast. I put a Minelab 6" coil on this 800 and plan on going back to all the junk sites that we hunted in the '70's and '80's. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeachHunter Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 Best of luck with the new detector. The 6” coil is amazing. Let us know what you find. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
