As opposed to Steve H. running it in the unreal world......according to some folks that is, sorry Steve, I couldn't help myself.

If that were so, that post never would have made it "passed" her.

My wife passed gas out loud on the first date, I proposed a couple of weeks later. Still going strong after 8 years, not the gas, our marriage. LOL.

Hey Gerry, I went back and noted in the post, I came across this on FB. A KG is a type of large cent, King George, that I do know :)

This video was posted on Facebook, unfortunately, it's not mine just to clarify.

Thanks for the great post and the info Gerry.

Don't!!! Lol, actually you should just to get an idea of how great of a forum this is compared to several others.

Lol.....crying here? You must not have visited a couple of the other forums. This is probably one of the most civil and sane minded forums on the internet right now ?

My gut from the beginning was this is a winner. I was #1 on my dealers list, but, due to a family tragedy, he suspended his business. I'm 15th or 16th on another list and have paid in full. I can't wait to take it back to all my spots that had produced last year!!

I sat on the fence for 3-4 years after the CTX came out, I can't believe what I was missing out on. Not gonna happen this time, going in full bore and buying both coils as soon as I get a price.

Speaking of clocks, they might as well left the one on the CTX off. Could it have been any smaller lol

I have this on hand and use it for everything that charges by usb, never have thought twice about if it was the "right" thing or not. I have no worries that it'll do the job for the Equinox, headphones and WM8.

There is no Exchange2 for the Equinox.

Thank you Steve for the swift reply, I 'll pass the info, not the pic, along. That's what I thought I had seen a while back, not being a water hunter, never given it much thought. The waterproof aspect isn't a concern for me being I don't water hunt here in the middle of the desert. It would seem that beach hunting covers a rather large audience according to the number of posts on all the forums. All is well once more !!!

That screws into the headphone jack to make it waterproof without having to plug in waterproof headphones? It seems some guys on another forum are getting worked up about the Nox needing extra accessories to completely waterproof the machine if your not using wp headphones. Thanks!!

JMT Metal Detectors ( John M. Tracy) lost his beloved wife Jenny due to a terrible car Accident December 26th, 2017 John's wife, and mother-in-law, were both tragically killed in the accident. His father-in-law was injured. Earlier on Finds Treasure Forums we had the unpleasant task of posting JMT Detectors John M. Tracy lost his wife due to a terrible tragic car accident John has two special needs children that is now taking all his time to care and provide for. John has had to close his business at this time to achieve that goal. Finds Treasure Forums ask that if you will please make a donation to the Jennifer Tracy Memorial Fund Mail to.................................................. Jenny Tracy Memorial Fund c/o Brenda Wolfe 16344 N. 700th St. Robinson, IL 62454 Make checks payable to the Jenny Tracy Memorial Fund. It is being handled through John and Jennifer's church. This will give John a helping hand in the care of his children at this tragic time in his and their life. Thank you in advance for your donations. Our deepest sympathy goes out to John and his family. Finds Treasure Forums I would have posted this earlier, but, we have been waiting for the family to respond before posting anywhere. John nor his family asked that we post this, but several fellow members thought that John could use some help and maybe other members would like a chance to help out. Thanks.

For me is a combo of all the following... New technology, fast recovery, adjustable recovery speed, noise cancel, lightweight, waterproof, better ID at depth, multi frequency or single, adjustable tone break, adjustable tone pitch, notch capability. Weighs less than 3 lbs built-in rechargeable battery, charge on the fly, adjustable backlight. That should do it for now :) oh, it's Minelab!!

It's called a noise cancel button and yes, the Nox has one, as does the CTX, Etrac and the Explorers. The Noise Cancel function allows you to eliminate electromagnetic interference (EMI) or noise from the detector. The CTX 3030 may become noisy due to electrical interference from power lines, electrical equipment or other detectors operating close by. The detector interprets this interference as inconsistent, erratic detections. Noise Cancel can be performed automatically (default) or manually. Auto Noise Cancel instructs the detector to automatically scan and listen to every channel, and select the one with least interference.

They may use the same set of phones, but, it will have a different connector.

Steve, I was under the impression that this was an accessory part and did notcome with the machine, if that's the case, and it does, problem solved!!

You know, now that you mention it, I'm wondering if one plugs into the Nox directly(who would) (me) if it's wired the same as the CTX jack(mono) I'm running an 1/8" angled male patch cable with a 1/4" female end mounted on the back end on the Nox. I use a Periscope Probe and need to plug directly into the machine. I've tried plugging the Periscope to the WM 10 but, for some reason when the audio goes from the WM10 thru the Periscope then to my phones, the audio get distorted just enough to throw the sound off. I'm hoping that's not the case with WM08, if it is, I have my plan in the works!!!

I would assume, an 1/8" male stereo to 1/4" female for the 1/4" male jack on the headphones. I may have one in my stash.

Is that an 1/8" jack on the WM 08? I sure hope not, if it is, I need to buy an angled adapter.

Thanks for the info Steve, excellent write up!! I have 4 spots that I'm convinced are "worked out" I have been hitting these places hard for the last 3 years with the Etrac and CTX, with every size coil(Etrac) and from every direction until finally they've played out. I'm betting the Equinox is exactly what the doctor ordered as all of them are polluted with iron and trash. I'm banking on the speed and the flexibility of the use of tones to bring to light a few more quality finds. I'm getting both coils if they are available at the time of the shipment of the Nox. I'm thinking even with the big coil, the recovery speed might offset the size of the coil in relation to masking(hoping) I'm very much looking forward to putting the Nox to the test in these spots, if it does what I'm hoping, and I'll be surprised if it doesn't, it'll be the perfect clean up machine for the CTX.

Thanks for the clarification, I couldn't understand a word he was saying and the translater mode was doing a lousy job. Thank you. Sounds like it's the same type used on every other machine and I do like the idea of being able to adjust the pitch of the pinpoint tone.
