  1. Doc If possible could you post a picture of the box and if it don’t say what coil comes with it please do so . People this was the number one nugget detector before the 6000 came out and in the right hands plus training it may be it’s equal . Doc is offering this detector at a great price and you going to get that great Minelab warranty . This detector is a legend in its own time but I say get training and you know who offers that so I don’t need to name them. If a vet do check with Doc on that ! Chuck
  2. I really don’t know about who may be testing the relic detector here in the US but I’d say it’s someone on the east coast . Now when it comes to that gold detector I do believe we have that person right here among us. So look around to see if you see someone smiling like a Chester Cat 🐱. They’ll be busting at the gut wanting to say something but have a gag order so they can’t. We’ve known him in the past to be one and just maybe he’s one again . Chuck
  3. I find these test in a known factor like a test garden very interesting and it gives us the opportunity to learn more about what our detector is capable of. In the field we have the unknown factor and what we detect we get but what we don’t we leave for another day are for someone else. That’s why you never think you got it all because I can assure you that you didn’t . Great videos and I thank you for going to the trouble of making them. Chuck
  4. They show and say two different detectors and a PI detector is the best for beach hunting. If they make both waterproof that’s even better for the water hunter. When Whites came out with the TDI the first place I started hunting with it was on the beach in Ms . I never before dug so deep for a good target. So if it comes out waterproof and a PI like Nokta said it’s a match made in Heaven for you. Chuck
  5. I just entered this naming contest for both detectors and I feel lucky tonight. I feel sure that will pass as quick as it came. I do believe being this contest will end the last day of the month we may be seeing both detectors sooner than soon. I do believe the price of both detectors will fall under 2 thousand ( That’s dollars) . I’ll go so far that the Relic PI detector will be less than 1200 and the PI gold detector under 1500 . Something that Nokta is good at is having the capability of updates. I do believe we’ll see that here as well. I was right it did.haha Chuck
  6. If Nokta is seriously talking about a PI detector then it’s got to be some testers that could be right here on this forum that we may be rubbing elbows with. I think Nokta would be better off to name the two detectors themselves and get them out to the customer sooner than soon. Chuck
  7. This has gone past a storm. It’s going to be a category 5 Hurricane before it’s over. Chuck
  8. Garrett is saying hey guys where did we put that schematic for the TDI SL and asking at the same time do you think we can improve on it. It’s been done before and I’m sure it can made even better.We’ll call it the TDI 2 gold detector. Chuck
  9. If it’s going to take a year to name it and another year are more for it to hit the market then you just as well call it a day late and a dollar short . That’s what it’s going to be if it takes them as long as it did with the Legend. You got two other companies if they wanted could have something at a lower price than what they have to offer now. Sometimes profit comes in volume of sales of items. That’s when you remold and repaint then sell it under a different name. We shall see. Chuck
  10. If you love paying sales tax then go order from some we have talked about in the past that know nothing about what they selling to you. We have Minelab dealers on here that been selling Minelab detectors for years and make a point like Gerry to know what he’s selling. Heck you don’t have to believe me because the proof is in the pictures that’s Gerry’s posted again and again. What Gerry just posted on the sale price of both detectors is a great thing for us the customer. I thank you Minelab. Chuck PS Vets don’t forget your 15% discount. That’s 15% off that sale price. You ask for it like I told my kids the most I can say is no . Minelab isn’t going to .
  11. People where is it said you have got to do anything with them. It’s just a pleasure of having something that maybe no one else has. I’m hoping after this storm is over I do hope all is pleased with what we got out the door of Garrett and not be just gas on our stomachs . Chuck
  12. JCR is right In you take them as they are are leave them where you found them. I’ve hunted with some odd balls and they may be thinking the same thing about me. If someone is putting me on some good hunting ground I have the power to forgive a lot and forgive even more if it really a great spot. Chuck
  13. Strick When I started detecting I didn’t buy another detector until it paid for it’s self and the next one . Now we have to have one for coins jewelry relic and a special one for the beach . Then we have others we got to have that will detect just maybe 1/2” more than the others I got. Now we got pinpointers we never had before but we finding out one is a little better than another so we got to have it. I must say I’ve gone down the same road buying more than I’ll ever need and use. I went from a BFO to a TR and then a Eagle 2 . I knew each one so well I could almost tell you the date on that coin before I dug it up. That’s almost. I traded the BFO but the TR and the Eagle 🦅 is still going strong today. I started out with Whites and never had another until after I had the Eagle over 10 years. Chuck
  14. I’m crossed between a Mississippian plus a Texan and I didn’t have any trouble understanding him. I just didn’t know what the Sam Hill he was talking about. Try listening to what he’s saying again and while doing so pat yourself on the head at the same time your butt . While doing this don’t switch hands. I can assure you this won’t help you understand him anymore but it will tell you what end is up and you won’t get turned around again. Chuck PS I just downloaded it for my Extreme Hunter and I hope it’s not a problem for it .
  15. If you have a bunch of feeders coming into that river you can be knee deep in water before you can get your equipment out. It will always come up faster than it will go down. I had a friend that lost his wife and two grandkids because of a river coming up on them before they could get out. They were sleeping in a cabin and it rained hard above them. Chuck
  16. Yes you’re right it was the SPP that I couldn’t think of. Chuck
  17. John You may not got a promotion but due to the price of gold your hourly wage has gone up.and platinum is not bad at about 940.00 . You may not want to fool with that cheap stuff like platinum so I’ll email you my address and to show you what a great guy I am I’ll pay shipping..haha You be safe out there going it alone. Having you coming on here with your show and tell is like being there. I thank you for your time doing so . Chuck
  18. Roger When Whites came out with the TDI I had one of the first that came out their door . Later they made one you couldn’t adjust the pulse on it. It was fixed and at the same time the coil that was sold with it was not a dual field but looked the same. It had the coil wiring in the outside like what like you have. I don’t have that detector anymore because I loaned it to a friend and haven’t seen friend are detector again. Chuck
  19. Roger it’s just no more than a small coil working in harmony with the big outside coil, Just more sensitive to small targets than the outside coil That’s where they came up with the wording Dual Field coil. Chuck
  20. Jim Coils are like people in when they die out we look back saying it are they were great. I had some of the coils and I really liked with others I could do without. People are the important ones and only one of a kind. Chuck
  21. If you got a winding on both then you have a dual field and that’s one great coil just because you have a big coil plus a small at the same time. You not having to change from one coil to another. The only trouble as we get older that coil gets heavy.
  22. Tony Just remember if you sale too much at one time a big red flag 🚩 go up with your name on it for the IRS to see. If can if any of you are out there nugget hunting don’t go it alone. Bad guys are out there all the time but I think more so when gold makes a jump in price like now. Somebody love’s you so carry more than a stick and make sure you where you belong. One thing when you walk into your house your dog will always wag his tail showing he’s happy you made it home safely. Chuck
  23. Who said this is our golden years is full of Bull. I was leaning over today and pop over one rib over the next one. I found out stars come out in the daytime too . This is a injury from another time back that just won’t go away. I’m thinking any day I’ll get up and the screw that holds my butt on has rusted out . Why say more you know what happened next. I’ve been told it’s a great life if you don’t weaken . Chuck
