Nokta You posted back in Oct. 07th that the Gold Plus should be here soon. Just to let you know I put my money down for one with Chris on AZoutback. I found one guy on ebay that has them for sale but talking about later ship date that he just changed a little later. I believe good things is worth the wait and I don't plan a trip anytime soon to any gold fields. The thing is after 41 days from your first post I'm wondering where is it ? I'm looking forward to all the new detectors you have coming. I just hope I don't run out of money when I see I want another one like the Impact. The word it's self sounds if it has to be a great detector Nokta I thank you for posting here and I wish more detector companies did. Chuck Anders

Hi Jasong Did you buy your Nokta from Kellyco ? I know the Gold Bug Pro is a great detector but I just sold it to a friend. Done it to buy another and I don't know what that is at this time. That's not much of a repair depot if they give you the run around and just sit on it. I had the same trouble with a TDI and it came back three times from White's. The way it got fix was Jimmie S. said give me a new one and they did. Chuck

Last Dance With Fors Gold
Ridge Runner replied to californiagold's topic in Nokta / Makro Metal Detectors
Hey Dean Some years back I'd went to Miss. to help my family do repairs because if a storm they had Well we were putting a roof on one rent house. The guy next door came out and said that roof was going to leak and we ask why. His answer was it had three left handed people on it. I can move a hammer from one hand to the other and not slow down. To hit a ball, to shoot has to be off the right but to eat are write has to be the left. One odd duck. Take care Dean we'll be okay Chuck -
Last Dance With Fors Gold
Ridge Runner replied to californiagold's topic in Nokta / Makro Metal Detectors
Well californiagold You could say that I'm a odd duck. I'm left handed and some things I can use both hands but swinging a detector has to be the right hand. Nokta That is great a company is willing to help the left handed people out. I'm looking forward on seeing the videos done on the Fors Gold Plus. Like what cagold said on setting up your detector any change to the detector would be small. So like my 4500 a quick look and a flip flop of the controls being it neither has a heads up display. I'm spending more time in the field swinging my detector and that's what finds you the gold. The Best on your New Line of Detectors. Chuck Anders -
Last Dance With Fors Gold
Ridge Runner replied to californiagold's topic in Nokta / Makro Metal Detectors
Californiagold On the Fors Gold did you find having to look on the side of the control box a problem to check settings? Even the 5000 you have to do the same thing. Just maybe it's why you said you may wait on the Racer Gold to come out. I know myself I too would like to see what it has to offer before buying anything. Oh well I guess time will tell us all what we want to know. Chuck -
Last Dance With Fors Gold
Ridge Runner replied to californiagold's topic in Nokta / Makro Metal Detectors
Yes I too would like to know what new detector it will be. Now if you try to take away the 5000 from your wife it will be your last dance. Waiting !!???? Haha Chuck -
New Nokta Impact Metal Detector
Ridge Runner replied to Steve Herschbach's topic in Nokta / Makro Metal Detectors
Hi Nokta It's good to see a detector company doing whatever they can to get our money in making what the buyer wants. I know I need another detector to hold up one wall. That's what I tell my wife why I need more detectors. I'm thinking only of her so the walls don't fall in on her. The Best! Chuck Anders -
New Nokta Impact Metal Detector
Ridge Runner replied to Steve Herschbach's topic in Nokta / Makro Metal Detectors
Nokta thanks for the heads up on things to come. I myself like the detector display all up front so I know all my settings without having to look at the side of the detector box. I guess I'll just sit back and wait. Chuck Anders PS For a new kid on the block in the US you've got some great detectors. -
How Do You Deal With Claim Jumpers?
Ridge Runner replied to Rick Watkins's topic in Detector Prospector Forum
I don't give a warranty with this but worth a try. Collect snake skins from where ever you can get them. I do mean as many you can get your hands on. Then put them all over your claim and be sure to put one in the hole you've been working each time when you leave. Worth a try Chuck Anders. -
Fors Gold + Expected Ship Date
Ridge Runner replied to Nokta Detectors's topic in Nokta / Makro Metal Detectors
It's good to hear gold + will be out soon. When Chris of Azoutback gets them I think he will make a video of it in the gold field. I'm like a kid in a candy store when it comes to a new detector. I couldn't find the price on any of your optional items. The thing with me is I want to cover on my detector are a stand to keep it protected from whatever comes my way. I got your email and I thank you. Feel free to send me any info of something new you got coming out. Chuck Anders PS The best is the written report that Steve gives on all detectors he comes in contact with. -
Fors Gold+ Coming Soon
Ridge Runner replied to Nokta Detectors's topic in Nokta / Makro Metal Detectors
Californiagold Being you have had a longer run time with the fors gold than most people it would be good to hear your thinking on the plus. I'm already checking with Chris and when he knows more he'll get back with me. The Best Chuck -
Fors Gold+ Coming Soon
Ridge Runner replied to Nokta Detectors's topic in Nokta / Makro Metal Detectors
If I don't get a cover and case with a new detector I just don't use it. Well not until I can make a cover and go buy the case. Like said we put out lots of money for detectors and we want it to last for years. On the charger it good to have one but I have other detectors that use AA batteries and came with a charger for AC plus car. Time will tell all on this matter. Chuck Anders -
Fors Gold+ Coming Soon
Ridge Runner replied to Nokta Detectors's topic in Nokta / Makro Metal Detectors
It's always good to hear great news. Where oh where is is the racer gold I've been sitting on the fence waiting for? I just wanted to see what the racer gold had to offer maybe over the fors gold. More than one time I was going to go ahead and buy fors gold but now here is the plus. The trouble is it's plus more money plus less in the package. i just love a cover and case for my detector and that would be a plus for me. I must say I've never heard a bad word on your detectors and too the service is great it's been said. Well I need to go so I can bug Chris on Azoutback being he's a dealer for you. Thanks for the better than good news. Chuck Anders PS Don't you love it ? More new toys to play with and coils running out my ears. You can't buy on looks and the way I look I can't get the time of day free. -
More New Generation Coil Questions Than Answers
Ridge Runner replied to jasong's topic in Minelab Metal Detectors
Jasong If I sold you the same year car every year would you keep buying it? Now I change the car up to look different than the pass year. This car is better than ever before. This new coil is one you can't do without being it can detect small gold better than any in the past. There is one now that is 12 inch and hitting the scales at 40 ounces and it's camo in color. It may be better than another 12 inch coil but I don't know. The only way I'll find out is to buy it. Now I've done what the company wanted and that is put my money out for a new coil. It could be the detector after detector are coils and we all keep spending to find the gold at the end of the rainbow. Chuck Anders -
John if it could ID the gold that would be okay. Now if I was to dig trash at that depth three times in a row it may be too good. It would be anything but good digging in hard ground that's for sure. Maybe where you are now it could pay off if one is hunting in a low trash area. If I was with you I'll swing the detector and I'll let you dig.HaHa Keep your money in your pocket until the Racer gold comes out to find out what it can do. The Best John Chuck Anders

Fake Garrett Pin Pointers
Ridge Runner replied to auminesweeper's topic in Detector Prospector Forum
Looking at some mag's with the word Garrett and the T's I'd say the bottom one. Chuck Anders -
Hey indainbullet The way it sounds to me your doing everything right. Read all you can about it but get out there swinging it is the best OJT ( on the job training ). Sometimes it best to dig the different sounds that coming out of your detector on items you detect.. Over time you will know what it is before you even look at the ID number on your detector. When you get to that point you and your detector become as one. Great first time out find. Chuck Anders

Maybe what you need is one plastic kids pool from Wal-Mart They are cheap and easy to blow up with your mouth. You can get them with one are two rings. When finish let the air out and don't take up a lot of space. Chuck Anders PS A solid plastic one may do you better. Light weight and don't have to worry so mush about punching a hole in it.

Minelab Go Find Metal Detector
Ridge Runner replied to Sourdough Scott's topic in Minelab Metal Detectors
For fun I got the GF 60 from Chris on AZ Outback. I put my money down just because I like the looks and didn't expect a lot out of it. The first thing I had to do was cut the sensitivity down to stop the false signaling. The trouble with this you lose depth. Even with the detector set on the high end and everything else cut out I was still digging trash. You do get some things free with your GF on your smart phone But to get it all that will cost another 30 dollars. Chuck -
Auminesweeper If you and others will write a story and find someone to be the judge. I'm willimg to supply the prize of one 7 grain Ghost nugget. The nugget is thin like a leaf with one detector can see it and another not to be. I will also ship free to anyone in the world. The only thing I'd like for all people on other forums enter if they like. The Best! Chuck Anders

Hi Steve The Racer is running at 14 KHz and the Racer Gold KHZ is unknown at this time.You said something about using 28 KHz. I'm just wondering if your saying use both 14 and 28 KHz at the same time? If we can do it with a coin machine with a ID then why not a gold detector. On detecting a target you pull the trigger and it would go to one of the KHz. I just hope that you be the one to get their hands on the first that hits the USA. Chuck Anders PS Thanks for the Forum where we can talk about any and all detectors. Is it possible one could cycle between 14 and 28 KHz ?
