  1. Filled up a museum with my old 4900.Having tested hundreds of detectors from around the world in the last 53+ years that's too tough to call.
  2. Disc. pattern on six, 2 tone, set tone one to the lowest setting and tone 2 the highest. Beach program, dry beach. Now I hunt colonial relics and coins in mineralized soil. If I was a park hunter this set up really breaks up on rusty bottle caps. Signals pop. Fun and simple to try. Just a heads up on the ferro check feature. I have dug both ferrous and nonferrous in the same hole when the meter shows both.
  3. I say no. "YOU THE OPERATOR" did not find the target while using a Legend. Too many factors involved in making that statement. Genius.
  4. With social media being the way companies must advertise now they will have to pick carefully whose hands they put a detector into. Besides us old guys don't know what we are talking about. I think a half century +3 equals 53 you tube hits. Hope your well Steve.
  5. Relic Hunting in the iron has presented no issues. Maybe Nokta can make a "Hypersonic Legend" for the jittery guy. Oh my!
  6. Lynchburg, Mechanicsville or Manassas? All folks I have known for up to 40+ years.
  7. Sentimental but still one of my favorites. BBS Technology. Killer for gold rings on the beach and Civil War buckles and plates. Says no to large iron. I never left home without it in the early 90's. Just got it off flea bay. Nice!
  8. Just find the best settings for your sites and conditions. I would stay away from youtube users of this product. You have got a manual so read it. Everyone wants to fast track. Get's you knowhere even faster. . That's about all I will say.
  9. Why bring Jesus into this mess. That man has enough problems to consider.
  10. I'm tired. Time to go away until I learn more. Take care.
  11. Central Va. is all about the Geology. My crushed basalt driveway goes right to 60 when you place the stock coil on it. Another slab, (Not basalt) reads in the low 20s but when you GB it GB at 81. When I GB the crushed driveway it reads 3. Nice. Enter the wet beach program. Seems to handle the bedrocks allot better after the initial ground balance which was zero. Oh my. My next trip I will use the stock coil and use Wet Beach. Did those tube people every here of turning down the sensitivity?
  12. The basalt base never has liked a multi frequency. Neither does the Legend. Reads 60 when it gets close to the surface, However I only use detectors in the Goldfield mode at these sites and that did the trick using 20khz and Fi disc. pattern. I dug one impressive target that was at pinpointer length with the 5 inch coil. A parasol ring came up. Did not dig any target with a number under 30 as these are mostly foil and small lead. Thats about it for now. Whoever thinks the detector is to slow to react in wall to wall iron certainly needs some more time using the detector. Hope you did well. Let us know. Thanks
  13. I live south of Culpeper so not as hot. I only use a PI in Culpeper or my Blisstool.
  14. Not unhappy with my purchase. Taking it to the "Red Dirt" with the small coil mounted. Colonial permissions loaded with iron. Fun!
  15. Never did Mike. I'm spending my latter years enjoying the grand kids, fishing and an occasional trip to my permissions. Let the UTUBE EXPURTS take over. Oh brother.
  16. You must of been the guy I saw hunting the farm field next to me. Just kidding of course. Those are my favorite kind of finds. Congrats on yours.
  17. I will have to wait on the Legend due to my brick and mortar store only getting 2. No rush.
  18. Mr. High Energy. That's cool. I see a "Folgers" commercial in the future.
  19. Thought the Dude was going to destroy it during unboxing.😁
