  2. Minelab is basically just trying to create their own social media. That's what "detexperts" are, and that's why they are choosing their own no-name relic hunting channels to give exclusive looks into prospecting specific equipment in whatever controlled manner they find acceptable. These are people that will post whatever they want, in whatever manner they find acceptable. It's patronizing as hell IMO. Maybe if you are selling ACE 250's. But $6k to $10k detectors to serious enthusiasts and literal professionals doing this as full or part time business? Give me a break. It's the kind of stuff that would hurt a company who doesn't have a monopoly. Like Ferrari hiring Bob the station wagon owner to demo a new highly anticipated model by grinding the gears and stalling the engine, instead of letting Michael Schumaker show off what it can really do. The minute a prettier lady walks by, we don't matter. I think it's kinda a hilariously inept and tone deaf. Like this stupid meme which is about as poignant demonstration of things as their videos.

  3. Finally got warm enough (and I had enough time) to hit the beach for 3 hours. Before I went out I stopped by the local Police department, asked where I can detect, and gave them my name. First thing I found was the small military button or possibly cuff or tack attachment. Not sure if it's Civil War era because I don't have my references with me. Found two pretty unrecognizable pennies, and to my surprise a 2003 one Rand coin from South Africa. There isn't a lot of junk on the beach, second photo shows the take. One gold pull tab! ๐Ÿ˜€ It's a really quiet beach. I was in more of a scout mode today, trying different levels of the beach (there is a 10 foot tide here), I walked about a mile up and back. I was hoping I'd find something military, there was a lot of activity here. Forts and Batteries everywhere! Of course I stayed out of the forbidden zones, and of course someone called the cops on me anyway - they told me someone would. Officer came out on a beach buggy, took a photo of me, radioed in, and left. They probably said "yeah, that's him!" ๐Ÿ˜€ Not a word to me. Word to the wise... Found one "hot rock", and had my first experience with black sand under the good stuff. Impossible to pinpoint in it. ๐Ÿ˜ต The one bottle cap was a 9. Beach mode 2 on the 600, F2/0. Sensitivity 21. I know I'm sacrificing some depth for the 50 tones and whatever else B2 does. It's kinda annoying I can't change to single frequency in this mode.

  4. I think they can do both quite easily, it would be no skin off anyoneโ€™s noses to allow the usual guys who were involved in its development to talk about the 6000 to their demographic in parallel to whatever the concept behind the Detextspurts is. Getting into a wider market in this new age should obviously be done via the social media influencer strategy, but why kill off the rank and file members who also crave information, they are also customers who spend money and are looking for info, after all itโ€™s them who have largely funded the gravy trail to the latest and greatest isnโ€™t it? Social media has its place, here in Australia metal detecting for gold is all the rage thanks to programs like Aussie Gold Hunters, in fact there-in lies a prime example of what we are now dealing with. I can barely stand to watch any of those shows because I know BS when I see it. Iโ€™ve lost count of the amount of times Iโ€™ve been approached by AGH to come on the show and each and every time have said NO! There is no way I am ever going to have my image or my name attached to a scripted load of wank such as that!! But that is just my opinion because Iโ€™m informed enough to not enjoy what Iโ€™m seeing because I KNOW the subject, the vast majority of viewers world wide get a huge kick out of it and are not overly affected by what they are seeing, but I know better so for me its a deal killer!! Welcome to show biz folks. ๐Ÿ˜‚

  6. Kinda cold this morning, but it was slack low tide when I went to the beach. It's only about 1/2 mile from where I am. Spent about 2 hours going over where I went yesterday but at lower levels of the 10 foot tide. There are almost "hourly" cuts in the sand, but it is more from the cargo ships on the Savannah River. When they pass 3-5 foot waves hit the shore. Came back on the towel line, but the lower cuts were more fruitful. Thought I'd get near a mussel patch thinking it might trap coins, but even though there were good IDs I couldn't dig more than 2 inches with my composite trowel. It was also a waste to try anything close to the water without a scoop, the holes filled in immediately. Dug two of everything! I was surprised that a '95 quarter would look as good as a 2018. It's probably because it is still in circulation. Got one recognizable Zincoln, a '98, and one totally encrusted. At first I thought I had 3 pennies but it turned out one was a dime. It is totally green. The other may yet give up a date but it is a Roosevelt. Two bronze beads finish it up. I know this isn't a big deal, but those beads are really small and were a solid 22. Got a bunch of sinkers, one bottle cap (f2/0 seems to make 'em go below 11), and a blue pull tab. Got a 12" piece of stainless steel tubing out of there that would have cored a foot. I can only imagine how much I would find if I could spend all day like I do on the farm.

  7. Iโ€™d agree except Minelab actually ditched all the โ€œinfluencers" in favor of people nobody has heard of, and hired models. So they were doing influencer marketing, but now are just a mess. More like traditional print ads translated to the internet. If you look at all the people in all the 6000 videos so far, there are no people that match the definition given above. The old Minelab team, of which I was a member, were basically the people writing the Treasure Talk articles. Gordon Heritage, Johnathan Porter, myself, Nevada Lonic, Chris Ralph, Randy Horton, Gary Dayton, Mark Williams, Kevin Hoagland, and more. As far as I know, we were all retired as non-essential people. I hung on to the bitter end, writing most of the last articles, so Iโ€™m slower than the rest to have seen which way the wind was blowing. They never asked me to stop, but it was getting silly me being the only person left, so I threw in the towel. I was on tap to go to the shows and be a dealer trainer also, but they never thought it worthwhile to pursue any of that unfortunately. Itโ€™s too bad, as I would have traveled the country and met you all, and would have basically done it just for expenses. I love chatting up people about metal detectors. Oh well, the could have beens. ๐Ÿ˜Ž

  8. Actually, the most difficult part is putting the coil above gold, at least here in the US. Many gold producing areas are depleted, and it gets harder and harder to find nuggets, unless you have access to private claims. You can still be succesfull but you have to do a lot of research and planing, much more so than in earlier days. What kind of detector you are then using is somewhat less important. I would say it contributes to about 30%, which of course can still make a big difference. So, even though the 6000 might make everyone a better detectorist due to automation, you still need to know where to look.

  9. IMO you nailed a big concern among many experienced detectorists. We all acknowledge the competition between manufacturers but there is also a competition among detectorists themselves. I've seen this same concern in other areas -- the rich wanting to stay rich (figuratively). (That's not a slam.) A lot of sweat time went into becoming a good detectorist and they don't want that neutralized by a detector that turns a less experienced user into an expert, leveling the playing field. Is that a realistic concern? I think the answer is 'yes', to an extent. But if the more experienced take advantage of the new technology then they will stay ahead of the less-experienced competition. However, from what I've seen in other areas the edge decreases. And we still don't really know for whom the GPX 6000 is a (relative) advantage....

  10. The button you found is indeed a military button, it's a WWII button used on..... " WWII US Army HBT Model 3 Suit -The HBT model III worksuit was one of the most versatile cloth items of WWII. This coverall suit was widely used in a variety of roles throught the American armed forces. It was employed by mechanics, linemen, tank crewman and infantry personnel alike., The construction of the outfit consists of a single-piece herring bone twill material. The model three used black or green metal 13-star pattern buttons . The stars in the design represented the initial 13 colonies of the United States. The suit came in three different models. Our collection also includes an example of the Model I . The differences between the models consisted primarily of the number and placement of the pockets and the use of the belt." http://quanonline.com/military/military_reference/american/wwii_uniforms/hbt3.php http://quanonline.com/military/military_reference/american/wwii_uniforms/usbuttons.html https://www.ebay.com/itm/US-WW2-LOT-OF-6-13-STAR-BUTTONS-UNIFORM-HBT-NOS-US-ARMY-USMC/192209622558?hash=item2cc096161e:g:kgAAAOSw1DtXK5tz

  11. Not a matter of not having more controls but the right controls. A turnoff for me is having a machine everyone else has that is so automatic that just leaves the chance of finding something just a matter of walking where they didn't. Removing the skill factor takes a lot away from the hobby for me.

  12. Over on the 6000 threads they are showing a few pictures of attractive detectorists. (You don't need to know how to use a detector in order to be a detectorist.) One picture I saw had been significantly photo-shopped. There is a bit of grumbling about the use of models rather than REAL detectorists. Here is a REAL detectorist. I showed her how to hold the detector and the scoop! What a FIND! I had just a junk chain at this point but I hunted my way back to finish my 2 hour hunt and I got a small little hit. Sometimes you just have to go slow. It turned out to be a 10K .78g (.5 pw) earring at about 6 inches. This is my first gold in a couple of years with the Avantree headphones. They are quite a bit different sounding for me. It affects all the targets I hear and it also affects the pinpointing. I don't know if they are 'better or worse' than the Minelab headphones but they are different. As I was leaving the beach I got an odd signal which became more familiar but you just have to dig them once in a while. It got deeper and deeper so I suspected what it was and I confirmed it. A can at 20 inches or so. This was my haul for the 2 hours. There were a couple of steel earrings about 10 feet apart and a rusty chain which I scooped in half with the big scoop. That is a problem with the tank scoop. It will go through most everything. Be careful out there and never photo shop. Mitchel

  13. This is where this situation becomes untenable, by all means widen your customer base, but guess where they all end up when they start trying to justify their AU$8K purchase? On places like this forum or in my shop!!! Or worse on FB where everyoneโ€™s and expert!! In the end they end up drifting to more knoweldagle people who are actually well versed in the art, they have to or they drown, which is explains all the โ€˜for saleโ€™ detectors on Gumtree or whatever!! When people throw that kind of coin down on a high end metal detector they have an expectation based on the marketing hype, trying to follow a Detextspurt on Fakebook is not going to answer the fundamental questions that are inevitably going to crop up. Yeah Iโ€™ve bought a โ€˜Switch on and Goโ€™ detector that makes me an instant EXSPURT out of the box, but where do I actually go and how do I swing it?

  14. Yep. This area is very popular for detectorists. I hoped they'd suggest a place I didn't know of. ๐Ÿ˜ The dispatcher didn't, but told me any place that isn't private property (posted/obvious) on the whole island is fine as long as I fill in the holes, stay off the dunes, and not mess with the sea oats or marine life. She said someone would probably call them, and asked for my name so they'd know it was me. I thought it would be best to respect them up front, and it paid off.

  15. Wow. Not good to hear how Minelab may be turning their back on experienced users in this field. Definitely right that this unit (GPX6000) as well as the other top end units are only as good as the person using it. There is the fact that "you can swing this thing all day, but if you do not know where to find the gold - all you will end up with is a sore arm". Minelab makes serious quality detectors but I think they are going after the wrong market this time and they may still end up with a black eye as a result. Combined with that, there may be a hell of a lot of used GPX 6000's for sale in the next 6 to 12 months.

  16. I was going out my door yesterday and here comes the mail man with my Tarsacci. I didnโ€™t have the time to open the box and take a look. I was headed to a wild birthday party of a 7 year old granddaughter that I couldnโ€™t miss . She may never know what I gave up for her. Then getting home late and other family at my house I again had to put it off opening that box. Here I sit in my little corner of my church waiting for service to start telling you all this a day later. I did get the box open and got my Tarsacci fired up and thatโ€™s all . All together now.

  18. Funny, my exact feeling about all the Gold Rush shows. I know too much to be able to enjoy them, as the fakery is too obvious. Oh well, I just sound like an old-timer grumping about the new ways of reality tv and social media, so I'll leave it be going forward, and finish on a positive note. It appears all there is to know about the GPX 6000 has pretty much dropped now, so for me it's just waiting for a box in the mail someday, then time to go detecting. Best of luck to the rest of you with whatever decisions you make, and detectors you decide to go with. Looking forward to a great gold getting 2021 for everyone!!!!

  19. Hi Steve, I look at it differently than you. I do not think the five possible changes I am aware of is a vast improvement warranting an additional $500. The single most improvement is the battery life. We all know there is an aftermarket battery for under $200 with nearly twice the run time of the new battery set up. The other changes are window dressings and can be done at home. If and I say if the new version comes with a transferable warranty then that might tip the scales. So for me, an aftermarket battery and a cam lock swap for $1700 is the way to go and I did say for me. Wish everyone lots of luck, good weather and virus free spins.

  20. Yeah Blisstool has a ton of external controls. Many could have been just factory fixed settings on the circuit board and they could have then built 5 different models. Such as Compadre to Tejon.........................Guess Bliss didn't want to that and gave to the detector owner operator full control so you can operate it like a Compadre or Tejon so to speak. Mild to wild. What's nice, I have a choice how to set it up with no limitations. But, its a beep and dig, you have to mentally visualize and understand the controls. Kind of like learning a foreign language. Takes time. Modern machine have push buttons and pictures (icons) graphs bars to show what is happening, and a software processor doing the work, makes it very easy to learn how to use a detector. The Bliss Beast and the Nokta Simplex covers my bases for most of my needs.

  23. Thanks. I'm enjoying the walk, I covered about a mile zigzagging up and down the beach. Went out early this morning to avoid the inevitable "finding anything?" There is a certain depression in the beach where I find the most stuff, kinda a "trap". It has a certain look to it. Caught on to that right away, the older stuff is there. Tomorrow I'm thinking of bringing my scoop or my Predator, I've had to let some stuff go because of the waves. Even 10-20 feet from the surf line the holes fill in fast. I don't know how much tide y'all deal with but it's 10 feet here, the water recedes about 100' or more from the dunes. Beach gets big, then really small. The tide even covers some of the towel line!

  25. Iโ€™m one that likes to swing a detector no more than 6โ€off my feet. To get it the way I like it I drilled another hole on the top shaft so I could slide the coil shaft in one more notch . When you extend the coil way out there in front of you you put a unnecessary load on your arm and shoulder. If you slow up and cover half your swing as the last one you wonโ€™t be stepping on your coil. If like me and you need to drill another hole always use a small drill bit to drill a pilot hole first . Remember you have to get it right the first time. Iโ€™m not short at 5 ft 11โ€ but my knuckles drag the ground and thatโ€™s why I had to shorten it. More to come! Chuck

  28. I think you know my answer Steve ๐Ÿ˜. I think this is a real extreme and embarrassing example and would not attract anyone. But in principle, I think they want to steer away from the crowd who buys the new 6000 doesn't matter what.

  29. You could look at this also from a different perspective. ML designed this detector to reach a greater customer base, including people who are new to this field and who would likely get scared away by complicated settings. Like the Ferrari, but the average Joe being able to fully enjoy it, not just Michael Schumacher. This is exactly what I think their intention is. If they would show JP with the 6000 people would think it's just another high-end detector for the world's experts only. I actually think this is a smart strategy, although personally I would of course prefer JP on every advertisement for it, as one the real world's experts and who helped developing it. ๐Ÿ˜

  35. You shouldn't normally hear an iron grunt in any mode unless you have no discrimination set using the horseshoe button (or if you changed the discrimination point to something less than zero. The default for park 2 has the ferrous disc breakpoint set at 0. Also, did you intentionally shift to 5 tones for Park 2? The default is 50. In the process of doing that, did you inadvertently adjust the iron discrimination breakpoint lower than zero for Park 2 (which means the tone for bin 2 would sound off for some normally ferrous targets) or inadvertently lower the tone volume for bin 1 (ferrous)?

  38. Thanks so much for the ID and the useful links! The only difference I see is the button appears to have a solid stud on the back, perhaps because it was used. I understand now why it isn't as corroded as I would expect, it's not 150+ years old. ๐Ÿ˜€ Not discouraging, the beaches here have been "replenished" many times. Last year they put 8" of new beach on top in some places, and the place was swarming with detectors. I'm grateful to have found anything! Haven't gone in the water yet, just using a composite shovel on the beach.

  39. It is rare for any meteorite to not be attracted by a magnet. Non-terrestrial Chromite is usually (but not always) associated with iron-nickel meteorites. So the fact that it is not attracted by a magnet makes it unlikely to be a meteorite and certainly unlikely to be a chromite meteorite. See below for more information on helping to ID a possible meteorite. https://www.usgs.gov/faqs/i-think-i-found-a-meteorite-how-can-i-tell-sure?qt-news_science_products=0#qt-news_science_products

Getting a little more confidence in its ability to sort and still get respectable depth.

  42. I probably didn't word it correctly. I'm not asking for more controls for the sake of controls. What I was poorly trying to say is that removing too much from us leaves us vulnerable to no options if the machine, for some reason does not work in my area. Even though it says all gold, all soils, all the time, I'm a bit hesitant to give all the control to automated features. Even though the 5000 has a lot of combinations in it, I can say for sure that the 4800 would not do for me what the 5000 does because of the 5000's extra timings. The Blisstool ๐Ÿ˜† that is an example of what I don't want. Even when it came out it was a no go for me. After watching one video that was supposed to make it look good, I saw things that I did not like. Anyways, my point was that if it works, I will eat my words, but if it doesn't work as advertised, you spent a lot of money, and can't do anything about it. If the Equinox did not have single frequencies, I would not have been able to continue some of the archaeology projects I was on, due to EMI. It was an option that made the difference in success or failure. I hope it does work for all the gold guys that can find great things without any need for different settings.

  43. Gold is heavy, so put any obstruction in its way, and some will get caught. Then the designer points at the gold that was caught, and declares the design 100% efficient. Except that all sluice boxes lose gold, so the real question is what is the gold loss.... and that figure is of course never available. As a placer recovery guy, just color me as very skeptical of 100% plastic designs with cute gimmicky catch systems. The odds of riffle blowout are incredibly high with these designs. What these really are is gold pan alternatives, more for light prospecting and quick checks, not actual production work. Personally, Iโ€™d stick with the gold pan until I need a real sluice, and that one is aluminum, steel, and carpet.

  44. Agreed. I too have moved up from the old machines, (hence trying the AQ) not just because they were new, but because they worked better. My fear is that the future will limit who decides what works better. I've noticed that when a manufacturer breaks into the market, they are very willing and eager to make the best machine possible. But after a while it seems they are more worried about market share and not as much about quality or what we are looking for. So let me pose a question to anyone who has the 7000: Do you feel you could have gotten more out of the 7000 if it allowed you more control and more choices than it offered you. In other words, if it had some or most of the GPX controls and options, do you think it would have allowed you to gain more gold? How about if you were allowed after market coils?? I'm sure the 6000 is going to find many good homes and probably some that will not like it, but at the prices they are now going for, trying one out to see if it's good, is out of the question for most people. Technology always moves on and that is a good thing, but limiting choices counteracts that technology in a way. I hope it is a great machine, but we can only wait and see as always. The proof comes out when some of the most experienced gold people get their hands on it. If they like the lack of adjustments, and it produces gold in worked out areas or trouble areas, then we know it's real and not just fancy advertising.

The part I had the most trouble with was pinpointing a shallow target once I got the target out of the hole, being chest deep and digging in running sand I dont have the time to check each scoop, I dig and dump piles next to each other so when I go back to check witch pile the target is in I can now judge by the strength of the signal witch scoop pile it should be in. Missing in the pic is a silver wave ring that has already been claimed. Joe you have helped many others including myself keep it up, Thank You

  47. Fisher and I reached an agreement - they decided to proceed with production of AQ Limited units but felt that it would be best if they dealt directly with the buyers. Since this was a change from what had previously been agreed between us, it was necessary to reach a new agreement. This was done and my list of waiting buyers is now with them and I have received an acceptable compensation for my work in marketing the Limited. I will continue to be a FTP dealer and am very hopeful that my experience with this project over the last nearly 4 years will induce potential buyers to chose me as their dealer.

  49. The biscuit tin model ...nice! Does the rotor spin when it detects gold or diamonds? In the US we use a spam can. No biscuits here only cookies. ๐Ÿ˜ข Sadly with the smaller and smellier tin we use in the US our detecting is very limited to only 44 meters in depth.
