New Untouched Colonial Homestead
relicmeister replied to NJ Art's topic in Metal Detecting For Coins & Relics
Beautiful- good for you finding untouched Colonial homesite. Always on my mind while scoping new areas. I have come across exactly two untouched colonial sites in my 12 years of detecting and long for the day I stumble across another. I’d fall into a tick infested pit to find my next. I’m assuming your site was in NJ? Mine were in far North Jersey. Your experience is what it’s all about. Are you still finding relics there? -
Thanks for replying. I don’t think I’ll regret getting the 10x5 either, but I’m holding off for now. I just got the WM 09 wireless module so I can use lightweight headphones as I just can’t wear full size headphones like the ML 85. I only got it after finding them for $135 which is $100 less than i thought.

Recently got a 900 and I like it a lot, although I’ve barely used it outside of my yard ( recently had surgery Is there anyone out there using a 900 with the 10x5 Coiltek? If so, what is your opinion of it? Do you recommend it as an all purpose coil (other than huge wide open spaces, where the 11” or larger is needed, or super target rich sites where the 6” would offer a clear advantage. I sold my 600 before the 10x5 coils were obtainable, but really wanted one. Thanks

The cuff does, and there was a stand that came with it, but I misplaced it. I used something I had laying around for the stand you see. What I like about the RCdigs RC mount is that 1. no worries about losing the remote 2. The ability to tilt 3. Offers good protection of RC 4. Remote comes out easily to use it wrist mounted. 5. Nicest piece of 3-D printing I’ve ever seen. I think it also makes for easier attaching of the antenna for water detecting.

As expected I ran into trouble trying to copy/ paste the link so here is a screen shot of the XP Deus “ Carbon Stick “ seller has poor feedback, but I didn’t have any issues. I’m only using it with the 9” coil, but it could handle the 11” ( I know you’re a fan of the 11”x13”) who knows how that would work out, it’s perfect for the niner. It came with a stand but I put my own on. In any case I like it a lot. If you want the best quality, you know where to get it ( Steves) Anyway, Here’s a couple pics.

I took a chance buying it that it would work out and it has worked out better than I even imagined.

Correct- I had to buy the puck adapter and replace what it came with. Seller was just a name and was from E. Europe.

I’ll see if I can copy/ paste a link - I’ve never done that and I do everything on my iPhone- I don’t have a computer. I’ll put in in manually if I have to.

I bought one of these for my remote to use on the stock D2 shaft and I think it’s great. I can use this setup for both 11” and 9” coils, but I also have a collapsible straight CF shaft that I use primarily with the 9” coil and using the WS6 puck controller. This little rig is Uber lightweight and like 22” long collapsed, which fits into a backpack as a single piece- coil shaft attached. I think this shaft was $90. eBay

Eqx 900 & Legend Separation
relicmeister replied to HardPack's topic in Metal Detector Advice & Comparisons
That’s some amazing history there! 900 arrived to the dismay of my wife. As stated earlier, I’m recovering from elective surgery and feeling momentarily decent put it together and threw it on charge. Build quality improvements are quite evident. that’s All I have to report so far. -

Eqx 900 & Legend Separation
relicmeister replied to HardPack's topic in Metal Detector Advice & Comparisons
I would assume the Nox 900 iron falsing to be less of a problem when using the 6” coil in dense iron - regardless of IB or recovery speed Bought a never used 900 return that saved me $250 ( been wanting a 900 for some time) which I’ll have in a couple days. I’m looking forward to hitting some iron laden sites using the 6” coil. Using the Deus 2 w/ 9” coil it’s like pulling teeth to find anything non ferrous. When I had my 800 and 6” coil I pulled my only ever half reales from the iron- wondering if the 900 will unmask my 2nd. Just had a surgery and with snow on the way it that will have to wait.
