Its like in “Spinal Tap”. These go to 11!

I like that better too. Bottle of whiskey it is then! Game on!

There is no gold in SD, we do all our hunting in WY. Yeah Dan killed it last weekend. Deepest biggest gold yet I have seen yet with this machine! Diet GPZ (or as Steve calls it GPZ Lite for you Euros) for sure in my book. I really used to enjoy winning all the beer bets before Dan got a 6k. Now he is taking my beer and my gold! 🤣 I keep telling him now that I should have never told you to get a quality detector, why the hell did your wife let you get one!! 🤣🤣🤣 Nah, Dan is great friend, detecting buddy and fellow researcher. Good partner in crime for our gold fields. Deserves the gold he is finding after for so long collecting dust. And now an active DP community member to boot! Now the next bet should be first one to find a 1+ ouncer gets a case! Game on!

Anybody know if the Minelab GA10 Guide Arm fits on the 6k shaft? I love the 17” coil but it did a number on my shoulder last weekend (but nowhere near as bad as the Z did). Would like a guide arm for it and I used to like the old Z guide arm.

Never got an email but just look for “Gerry in Idaho” and PM him.

900 euros over here would be outrageous! On eBay they were going for $500. Gerry had some good deals going on older PI units, might want to reach out?

Research for a proper physical therapist and pay the money for proper fitted orthotics, you can then put those in any type of footwear, except sandals. They will last for years. By the time you pay for all the cheap fixes you will have payed for them.

Steve has great reviews on both. I have recently read them. Seems the Extreme had QA/QC issues so if I had to choose, I would go 3000 or 3500.

Thanks for fixing those drop downs!!!

This just started happening to me this morning, drop down ads. I completely understand having ads on the forum as a way of income and I am not trying to say to remove advertising, but would it be possible to remove this “style” of advertising. It makes navigating on the forum annoying and difficult because you alway have to navigate around it, at least on my iPad. Would really appreciate just the old style, and yeah I have clicked on some ads 😊.

That’s what I like to hear! 😊

I wonder if you could use this similar to the iron discrimination on the older GPXs for large solid nugget hunting in ferrous trashy areas? Maybe just stick to low tone - difficult targets (based solely on your description) and play the odds.

And some with discrimination 😊

Steveg’s rods are top notch for sure! The extra length (if not used) may stiffen up the shaft as well. Steveg have you noticed that it reduces flex? The flex that some notice with the 6k stock shafts hasn’t bothered me but this might be an easy fix for others. 🤷‍♂️

Geologically speaking we are over due for an ice age. If you look at past cycles. But the massive increase in the earth’s overall temperature (natural or man made) has probably put a pause or end to that cycle. It is interesting how much the Earth’s temp has exponentially increased since the start of the industrial revolution. Climate is changing, that is obvious over the past 45 years alone of my life. Might change back, might not 🤷‍♂️. Who cares, let the next gen fix it, that what the old gens taught me 🤣.

🤭🤢🤮

The chic at the end still makes me wanna go 🤣

I see, not built in the coil. So maybe sacrifice a coil for a chip to build an adapter plug.

🤔. A chip and an adapter, not just a chip?

Is that one of yours, unchipped?

“Can you digit? Gerry just did..”. 😂 That was a fun video to watch and we got a giggle. WTG Gerry! PS. We are still waiting for part 2!

Aesthetics, weight and balance. But i would also like a CTX style discrimination and programing in an Equinox.

Never had a problem, in or out of water.

Mmmmmmm 😛 Where do yo live again in AUS? I am coming to visit hahahaha

Hey Vic (and G), I have a couple questions. Vic, what was the target size? Vic and G, do you think that because the DD should smooth out the threshold/EMI/ground that you were able to hear subtle repeatable targets or was the threshold still a little chattery but the target signals was obvious? Thanks!
