50% More Power To The Manticore Coil?
midalake replied to Erik Oostra's topic in Metal Detector Advice & Comparisons
Hey Jeff I see the Horseshoe Mode..😊 I can only hope that the Manticore has the frequency weighting to pull off what the equinox does, by nonferrous Single ringing and Ferrous targets Double Ringing or breaking down on a 360 look! My Mex Friend already said he is going to buy one, so I expect a visit from him in January 👍 We will put that sucker through the ropes! -
😆 Remember quite vividly changing both my Sovereign meters to "180" scale!

I see a Horseshoe mode on the Manticore. I hunt with the horseshoe mode ON with the Equinox. This is the only way the ferrous mode is accepted. Minelab is going to have to come up with some special sauce on that iron range stuff, Because: I find iron targets on the Equinox bounce all over the place. Rarely do I EVER see a ferrous target lock. This will be interesting to watch!

Minelab Manticore Unofficial Specs And Features Thread
midalake replied to Chase Goldman's topic in Minelab Manticore Forum
This was just posted by Tom D. Gary...... We've been working on the Manticore for nearly 3 years. A TON has gone into this one. And with different 'mindset'. I will share more data.....as time permits...... AND = when it will NOT infringe upon sales of other stuff.,.,.,.,., and/or C.O.I Something I want to clarify.... that Mark Lawrie stated in the YouTube video: The ID system is on a scale of 99 points. So is the scale of iron ID range! -99 to 0. (Negative 99 to 0). (((Salt ID's as '0'))). This is to say: Nearly a 200-point ID span. There were 2 VERY primary 'focus-of-intent' into this project. There's a few more loose-ends to button up. VERY Interesting>>> 99 points of Ferrous range, and 99 points of Nonferrous range..... -
So, I guess we can put all the speculation of a software update to rest. 😂

Minelab Manticore Unofficial Specs And Features Thread

I have looked at several different Vids scrolling through modes. I see 4 different beach modes? Anyone else see this? Also, can you use wired headphones? -
How To Improve The Swing Speed Under Water
midalake replied to Kaolin washer's topic in Metal Detector Advice & Comparisons
It is marketed for ocean use. It is really hard to break Carbon Fiber.......... -
WOW>>>> I COUNTED 4 DIFFERENT BEACH MODES!

XP gives you the option to buy just the remote [D2], and any piece of the package you want.

I thought it was the Mantibore????😂🤣

Except for all that internal coil bracing in the picture. Which is gonna really suck in the sand. Fields too.

How To Improve The Swing Speed Under Water
midalake replied to Kaolin washer's topic in Metal Detector Advice & Comparisons
Well while some "knife" shaft might work great in a stagnant lake, it would not work in an ocean wave condition. Many times, I find myself coming up or downslope and wave wash is forceful. In the case of the type you are proposing the water forces may be enough to break stuff and would be exaggerated greatly' As one person stated the key is to decrease diameter. -
Outstanding!!!!
-
RUT ROH.........Well just a few comments. As a Water Hunter, I DO NOT like all the coil cross supports. I am guessing field hunters will not like it either. I am also rather surprised they are going with a hand grip pod after all the problems with beach hunters ripping out the mounting screws.🙄

Great find Dew, keep up the good work! Cliff hasn't posted in a while, what Cha do? Bonk him on the head with your scoop and leave him in the trough? 😄

How To Tell The Difference Between Gold Rings And Trash???
midalake replied to Bhogg's topic in Minelab Equinox Forum
As a beach hunter, I dig EVERYTHING nonferrous, without exception. I have learned over many years that salt, and black sand can make targets appear differently than other landscapes. If you're going for gold, there is no option to dig everything between 1 and 21. -
Checking Equipment Out For A Week Of Salt Water Beach Hunting
midalake replied to Dancer's topic in Tarsacci Metal Detectors
I can vouch for the ability of the Tarsacci in forceful moving wave wash. It is fantastic! Unwavering with very little signal/detection interference. -
Well? Timeline was good. But the rest of the transaction seemed a little cold.
-
Nice haul......LOVE THE CASH!!!!
-
Final report: >Remote shipped Aug 12th >Upon arrival, tracking conformation stated, "delivered to neighbor" Slightly worried, I sent two emails the next business day for delivery conformation, no response. I called the next business day, and a nice person named Jeff confirmed that they did receive my Remote. >August 18th return shipping label created. >Today, August 23 received a new replacement Remote. No follow-up notes or correspondence. Wallet $35 lighter for the shipping fees I had to pay.

Well, since you were in a mining area, and the grabbing part seems really flat. Maybe it was used for picking small gold out of a pan?

Looking For A Solderless H/p Plug
midalake replied to cjc's topic in Metal Detector Advice & Comparisons
I have Tony Eisenhower do all my jumpers for headphones, does really nice work better quality than aftermarket and reasonable. I can't solder either............ tony@idigbeaches.com Dave -
Make sure there is no soil/sand under your coil cover.................If there is, clean it and retest.
