  1. Did I not see on the MXS under the ID number a abbreviated spelling of the value of the target that the detector says it is ? I can see that the Racer 2 is doing a great on what I can see and hear. But again you don't see what the ID numbers are. It don't have to tell me hey Chuck it a nail are a coin. Just show me one time what that big screen and numbers show. Be it a air test are in ground test this is never shown. Could it be that the detector is showing something else other than what's in the ground. All I want to know is the ID number correct on what's in the ground. Is this asking too much ? Chuck
  2. What I see about the Makro Racer 2 is it will detect very deep. That part I do like. The thing I'm not seeing is what the ID says. Just maybe I don't want to dig that what ever it is. Show me the ID each time and use American coins and some beer bottle caps made in the US. This will tell me just how accurate the ID is. The show and tell is always with coins other than one nail and all in their own hole. It's a ID detector so please show it. Chuck
  3. Khouse I thank you for all you posted on the MX Sport. I don't think it's necessary it detect a dime at 12 inches. It may be coins that deep but I just want a true ID at 9 inches. I know all detectors are never right all the time on their ID. Another person I'd like to hear from is Digger Bob. I know he's a dealer for White's but I do believe he will tell it as it is. Please khouse come often and let us hear more on your MXS. Chuck
  4. I was just joking around. I don't know of the two I want that all the talk has been about. I can live without either. Chuck
  5. Hey Saving the Past I too welcome you. We will roll out the red carpet to hear from you on the Racer 2. The best to you on your new detector. Chuck
  6. I went back to my Lost Treasure mag. to read what Andy Sabisch said about the MX Sport again. I've always said swing your coil low and slow and that's what I done rereading his report. The main thing I read is the stock coil may have it's place but not necessary the best one to have a more true ID. The 6 x 10 DD elliptical and the 9.5 concentric coil would be more inline for us coin hunters. White's I know likes to send out their detectors with the large coils. Most people that coin hunt know they will need a smaller coil and they do what White's wants. They buy one. Here you put out a large sum of money to buy the detector and yet it's not complete. You can't tell me a company like White's don't know this. I've said this before that I don't want it free but offer it at the time I buy the detector. I don't want to be detecting later and find out the coil is not doing the job for me. Then have to sit and wait to get the one I needed in the first place. Why does it take a company out of the US to do it right the first time! Chuck .
  7. My interest is more on the side of coin hunting with this MX Sport. When you coin hunt in a high trash area the last thing you need is a big hoop.( coil ) The ID you got on that detector is working overtime wanting to be right on what it says. You can have as many as three targets under that large coil at one time if not more. To me I want that small coil at the same time when I receive the detector. But as sure as the Sun will come up most detectors come with that big coil. I'm willing to pay the extra money if they will just add it right away if one wants. Two things I'd like with my detector is a stand plus a small coil.. Oh please if anyone is out there hunting coins will you come on here and let us hear from you. I will forever thank you. Chuck
  8. I go back to watch them and they are gone. Chuck PS Well I went back and found it. The one I was interested in is by Keith Southern . It's a air test on the Racer 2. It may have been on here but I haven't seen it..
  9. There is two are more videos on the MD-hunter blog on the Racer 2 that I know I haven't seen. I wish someone would move them over to here. I'm just short on how to do it. Chuck
  10. I ask Rob if he would have the Racer 2 at the gold show next weekend and he said no. He had been asking about it but nothing so far. He will have the Racer and the Gold Racer if one wants. Chuck
  11. Chris on Azoutback forum is a dealer for Nokta and talking about the AU gold. He said he has been testing it this past winter. Chuck
  12. Now I know why so many people run red lights. Then the next time they'll sit through the green one. Chuck
  13. Hexx Thanks for posting the video. I'm looking forward of seeing more. Chuck
  14. A young new detector company that comes to the US to get American dollars don't need anything negative. The trouble with negative it will hang in the air longer than whatever positive can be said about their product. Yes I did have trouble with my Nokta fors gold plus out of the box and the problem was in the control box. The service from Nokta was outstanding and they didn't stop until it was corrected. The Best to Makro and Nokta Chuck
  15. AuWanderer What i'm about to tell you is the norm too many times. I hunted hard for two weeks around Rich Hill and not one nugget did i have to show . I couldn't whole all the trash I dug up in both hands in the form of a cup. This is not counting the big trash that I'd put in my bag. For me it's always been more trash found when nugget hunting. I've dug lots of trash coin hunting but not as near as bad as the other. In coin hunting people had a trash dump in one place most of the time. The old prospector has his trash dump but the location was depending on what door are window was open at the time. For the cabins that didn't have a window also didn't have but one door and the front yard is where it went. If you don't find lots of trash where nugget hunting then someone has been there before you. The less of it are none at all the guy before was good at what he was doing. I'm not saying move on but thank them if you do find something. It's been times I had to clear out the trash to detect the coins. The times I'm talk about is long before you had any kind of ID coin detector. Chuck
  16. Well what I said about great machines is true. Chuck
  17. On MD-Blog it shows a shadow of a detector that looks like the Nokta fors gold. It's being called Nokta fors relic for 2016. The Nokta and Makro detectors are coming out of nowhere. You just say what you need and they will make it for you. That detector don't come out as a after thought but as a top notch machine. Nokta as I get older I need one with a digging arm.Haha The Best Nokta Chuck
  18. Hey Digger That's great that sales for the MXS is outstanding. With it going that way we should be hearing soon of reports coming from the field. The best test is the ones coming from the buyers with their show and tell. The Best Digger. Chuck.
  19. I do like the handles on the classifier and most do come with half inch hole in it. On the pan I've got more than I need but one can put one on your head if in the rain. I too started out with a metal pan because that's all we had at the time. I myself don't care to use the big bottom pan but this is a each his own on what one likes. If the price is 39.95 I may have to buy the kit. Pans is like detectors with me and that is I don't have one. I've got them in green,blue. black and I've seen them in pink but I'll leave the seen at that.Haha Chuck
  20. The video on the two detectors shows that the Gold Racer is great on gold. Would the Racer 2 be any better on a small gold ring ? I'm wanting a coin and jewelry detector but I don't see this video help me make that decision. Keith I've always enjoyed every video you made. I look forward to any others you make in the future. Thank you for your time doing them. Chuck
  21. Yes I miss that about the Racer 2. That's what I get for not reading everything.. It won't be long my cup will be running over with both detectors and this long post will be history. Thanks! Chuck
  22. Well Steve did you get your hands on the MX Sport detector at the GPAA gold show ? Maybe the Racer 2 too ? I can't find anything on the Racer 2. I don't believe dealers have them yet. Chuck
  23. Hey Digger Bob Thanks Bob for the heads up on the MX Sport. Well if you got the MX Sport then I'd say they must be out.. I may be wrong but I think it will be a big seller for White's. Thanks Again Chuck
  24. Hey Bowwinkles I see it's your first post. I welcome you and come back often. I'm one that want to see more of it. I'm just wondering if White's will offer a package with it. But only the powers that be know. Thanks for the heads up. Chuck
