  1. 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.

     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!

  3. 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.

    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 ?

  4. I've got the Go Find 60 on order from Az. Outback. I don't think it's a video left that I haven't seen on the Go Find. At one time if we got a new detector you really didn't know much about it before hand. Time has changed as man goes beyond of being blind on his purchase anymore.

    I thank you ahead of time on what you may post. Any info we can get helps us all.I'll do the same and this will make us all a Pro with the Go Find.

  5. Hi Nugget65

    Great looking gold you found. You and others are proving that Fors Gold is more than just the name in finding gold. Here we are with a detector from another country that's a hit when we get our hands on it. I wonder how many more is out there waiting to be discovered and like the Fors Gold at a great price.

    Thanks for the post.

    Hey Steve H.

    Have you had your hands on any of the Go Find detectors? I always like reading on what you have to say on a detector. I know what's said be it good are bad I know it's true. Thanks for your time you take on doing it.

  6. That story about this guy and his treasure was in a back issues of Lost Treasure.

    I guess that's one way to make money off the sale of his book. He could always go pick up the treasure.

    This fits a joke.

    This guy had loan a mule to a friend. One day he told the friend he wanted his mule back that he was going to raffle it off. The friend said I have bad news. That was the mule had died last night. The owner said I want my mule back anyway.The friend said you can't raffle off a dead mule. The owner said I sure can.

    The owner of the mule had raffle tickets made. The friend ask will how did your raffle go.Well I sold 500 tickets at 2 dollars each. The cost of printing the tickets was 198.oo. What did the winner say went he found out that the mule was dead? Well he wanted his money back and I gave it back to him. With the cost of the tickets and giving his money back I still made 800.00

    Maybe this treasure hunt could be the same HaHa

      You didn't say what detector you want this for. It's just some detectors have a long run time on a 9 volt battery than others. If you have a Harbor freight near you they have what you need cheap. Northern Tools has just good batteries with their name on them . I've found they have a long run time. I guess the best thing is look at the mah like I do on the AA batteries and they can go up too 3000 mah. The more it has the longer run time in your detector.

     Best of luck.

    What you have been told and read is not always true. I look yesterday on line and with the stock number I went to the store. On line it showed the batteries were 2650 mah but at the store they were 2400 mah. I have some others on charge now.

    I do believe the only way to get higher voltage is use regular batteries of a good quality. The down side is they don't have much of a run time. The last time out I'd had some batteries that read 1.6 volts but the run time was very short. I was spending more money on batteries than finding gold. I guess so what else is new. Two steps forward and one back but on we go.HaHa

    Don't feel bad I've found so many people say don't buy. Now if I can get some with a run time of six hours then that equals my run time.Haha I'm going to check with Harbor freight to see what their recharge AA batteries are. They are cheap and reviews not bad. Don't cost much to try them.

    Better luck to you today than yesterday.

      I have yet to find any 2900 mah batteries. I'm talking from any local store but I can get them on line. One local store had some that were 2850 mah but at three times the price. You may know that they do make a 3000 mah aa battery. 

     I'll get back with you after I get them in and charged up

    Take care.

  11. Okay Guy's

    I'm offering stock on this new form of gold mining. If you would like to be the CEO please apply for the job. The name of the company will be called Bull Shoot. I just can't believe how much money I've flush away over my 73 years.

    Oh the stock will come out Monday at one dollar a share. You will receive your stock written on one sheet of toilet paper. Looks as if the stock holders will get the shaft. What can I say that's way gold mining is.

  12. Hey John

      Well I got it done this morning thanks to your help. The only thing I done different was cut out the main pack so the single AA holder would fit in it. Then used supper glue to hold it in place. The cover slides on okay and it fits in the charger  without trouble. You just got to make sure the AA holder is flush on the back side of the battery pack.

     Thanks again.

  13. Hi John

      Thanks for taking your time to post and posting your pictures too. I myself have the SPP and had been looking at doing something for more run time. Then here you come to save the day.

      I've done taken a look on what I need to do. So simple fix when someone already done it. Nothing like show and tell.

      I don't remember who sold this but it was not White's. After all he went back to watching the Meter on his 66 TR. The only bad thing about him was being he couldn't hear he'd open the back of his Ford and throw that detector in. That is neat that you still have the light.

     Steve time is getting away from us.

       Back in the early seventies I had a dealership with White's. You could get a vibrator that plug into the speaker and like a watch it fit on your our wrist. You could get one that had a light on it that also plug into the speaker. I had looked  into this because I hunted with a guy that couldn't speak or hear. That was odd going all day not saying a word. He didn't want to write anything down. You had to get it over with your hands are not at all.

     White's didn't at first have a plus for headphones but I remember putting them in.
