Rivers rat

Also I may test and do a video on the Thames with Gary from XP for the elliptical coil.............we are planning at the moment . I am not familiar with the V4 yet as I have been busy at work and I want to do it right when I am gonna do it! RR

So far he has been testing on silver tiny coins and the performances are pretty good,i will keep u updated when I got more "solid" news . RR

Just finished to mount the 17" not really easy if you are in a hurry no wonder why some chaps got 2 CTX.............. RR

Got a Deus for many years...but the F75DST found me more gold:) RR

Thanks Fred and Steve I got the 17" but I was too sure of the beach...........also in UK the iron contamination is 2000 years old plus that may be difficult on some beaches but I am sure I will try it soon enough with a sand scoop as passed a certain depth I doubt the spade will do............regarding the depth reading I tjought they were accurate til now............................ RR

Good day to all wife love the Seaside and so do I but with a detector so we did spend the week end on the coast i did 4 session (had to spend time to eat some Fisha and Chips too) So 2 night sessions 1 morning and 1 late afternoon before we hit the road back to London which was a good move because ewe had :NO TRAFFIC at all ,CTX on my Harness a S&F LOWEPRO with home made bungee and Voila i did put the machine on max out managed some deep stuff and quiet happy with the result ,i am enclosing some pics the silver 6 pence comme from the cracking layers of clay and was stuck in one crevasse .Impossible for objects to sink in...........few copper/brass shrapnells a rifle complete amo and then 5 min later the 9ct 1.8gr with 6 small diamonds ring.not much for 13/14 hours but i had fun and perfecting my digging technique I was happy because i was swinging super wide as the beach was HUGE....will i go back yes with my PI with i need to use for the first time Enjoy RR

Got the F75dst with the small fisher elliptical 6X3 and i detect in highly iron trash well i think i found my perfect machine for now it deep enough considering the size of coil....and fluffy ground or layer of pebble it is excellent i am not using my deus at all.......... https://www.joanallen.co.uk/fisher-6x3-elliptical-coil-p/10105.htm RR

Steve i can't agree more imagine i always wondered what the first Sovereign owners must have found..........i know a guy who has killed 15 sovereign XS2 he has all of them in his garage rusting in piece he used to go out everyday ........8 hours i guess want we need now is a new tech to find what the other machines havent found .......... RR

Thanks guys Beach isn't really my hunting ground I am more into the Thames but the wife love spending week ends on the coast so I had to find a way...on th elong run I may find bit and pieces but the competition is fierce so it is gonna be tough......but hey Fail trying but don't fail to try Have a good week all RR

Aloha i decided to hit the beach again this week did 2 session 1 of 3 hours at night and 1 of 2 hours the day after i start to have fun with the CTX no gold yet but i found most of the fishing wet at 1 foot and more laying on a hard clay layer sand was mixide with large stone i think i would have struggled with a sand scoop big time ....i am gonna keep using spade till i find a sandy beach total 1 british pound and 2 pence i guess there was no fresh gold.... RR

Wooooaaaw thats interesting unavailble to the UK away...................... RR

we'll done!!!! RR

I have been looking for a harness for a while for my CTX(1 session so far) and my Deepstar (not tested yet )Chest mounted i found the LOWEPRO : https://www.parkcameras.com/p/9360560H/straps/lowepro/sf-technical-harness-black?utm_source=googlebase&utm_medium=pricecomp&utm_campaign=GoogleShopping&gclid=Cj0KEQjwhpnGBRDKpY-My9rdutABEiQAWNcslP1y1qrz_LSuLvYr5F_0WtD_mOLdxAD0HT8-P3D0-hUaAoXM8P8HAQ I Bought because i can see the CTX is pretty heavy to move i bought the top part brand new and the lower part 2nd hand but cheap and like new found a bungee on my way to work cut the bungee to the right size and use the adjustable straps from the harness to secure the machine.i tested it 3h30 without problem......jus my 2 cents but once i found more gold i will think about other system...... RR

Well done pretty good result!!!!!!!! RR

I hope he is still alive and kicking!!!!i lived in French Guyana in 95/96 and it was a dangerous place .. RR

Good grace!!!!!!!! RR

Thanks for sharing the pictures some of them are pretty cool make you think sometime did those miner fond the motherload did they lost everything............ RR

Will wait for the small one .......... RR

Thanks Steve i am sure i ll do better soon ,wish Fihser was making the f75 for the beach......... RR

Went to the coast this weekend did try my luck on once a popular spot, i was using my CTX for the first time and i max out everything machine was stable but i found jacks£$t!!! I could feel that the machine is going deep but the spade i brought with me had a shaft which i didn't trust that much so i left a lot of target found 1 rivet 1 screw tap and 1 rusty piece of something.....the machine indicated target at 12" but i could reach them without breaking my spade and i had no spare.......well next time i will bring either a sand scoop or a better designed spade.. RR

Sounds like a good adventure keep us updated!!! Good luck!!!!!!!! RR

Looks like good value for money with all those accessories.... RR

Superbe!!!! RR
