Well what I said about great machines is true. Chuck

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

I was reading over again about the MX Sport in Lost Treasure written by Andy. On the MX Sport Andy didn't have a 100 % to say on it. On any detector we will have some positive and negative thing to say about it . What is trouble for one is not for another. I think this wholes true for us all. It's a old saying if you live in a glass house you shouldn't throw rocks. Maybe it would be best if we take a look at ones self before we pickup a negative word. I think all of us want the detector companies to listen to us. Like when I posted on here my new out of the box Nokta Gold Plus was not working. I just posted I needed help bad and Nokta was here. It did help I knew they posted on here all the time. The main thing they were there more than willing to make it right. I'm no saint being Steve just had to removed something said between me and another guy. Like me I forget what I'm saying is here for all to read. I just need to remember what I say is here for all ears to read. Nothing private be positive are negative. Chuck

Hi Klunkler Have you had a talk with the powers that be ? I'd be ringing Minelab's door bell until they wanted to listen..They have a great detector but small things come up like the coil cover. If I buy a car it has a bumper to bumper warranty for a set time. If you have a two are more years warranty I'd say it should whole true for my detector too. Now if replace one thing on your detector and here you back again next month. Just maybe you have reach my limit of what I'll do for you. Call them. Chuck

Hi Ray Thanks for the pictures. Is that dog are the metal detector finding more gold for you? Good looking gold and I like that coin too. Chuck PS I see the old girl was sitting but how old is she ? ( coin )

At one time every year in Texas you could find a Treasure Show that was for the coin hunters. I don't know what stop first the dealers are the people coming. Now I look but haven't seen any in a very long time. The State of Texas hasn't help none. You can't hunt on State Park land are on that national sea shore. Anything that's got Texas written on it you better walk away are go to jail. Chuck

Steve You were there last year on the first day. Will you make it again ? Thanks Rick the look see did help. Chuck

Wondering if it would be a dealer of the racer 2 be at the GPAA gold show next month but no reply. I'd like to see if the other detector it's been so much talk about be there too. I myself will show up there just to see both. Maybe I need to ask Markro if the Racer 2 will be out soon Soon as in next month. Well you didn't see any question marks. I'm not asking but I do want to know .haha Chuck

It's been so much talk of what we don't like about the location of the headphone jack. Well the powers that be put it there and whatever reason they didn't call us first before they done it. This may be the reason White's is giving us the adapter for the worry warts to reduce the stress. Like I said before that adapter cord looks long enough to run under your arm and turn it back to the front to plug that headphones you like. We had good bad and indifferent talk going on the eleven page about the MX Sport and it's not over with yet. I've had one White's dealer contact me informing me he should have some soon in stock. He didn't know just how bad I wanted one and to say no just about put me in the hospital. I'm more inline with Steve on a better ID than depth. I know I'm repeating myself but some of the oldest coins I found had no more than dust over them. Being I'll be 75 in May maybe you can overlook my repeats.Haha I believe this talk on one detector will set a record. All I can say for White's is you must have a winner. Chuck PS If you don't cover your hole and pick up your trash you won't be hunting with me.

Over the years I never went into depth as you and guys like Andy on a detector. I just look at it wanting only to know it would do what I wanted. I've look more on what makes a detector tick by reading reports you posted and guys like Andy's reviews. So if I'm going to pat someone on the back are pin a gold star on them I'd say step forward Steve H.. What someone else is getting paid for their views you give it out free. Any time a person has a question I never heard you say go find it yourself. Thank you Chuck

Steve I've read so many reviews of Andy's on detectors. If for any reason someone thinks I was putting him down is wrong. Like said this forum has been running over with so much info. The main reason I can't ask the Mag. a question. On here you get a flood of info if you take time to read and you can still ask that question you got. Hope I've made myself clear. Chuck

Steve Thanks for the show and tell. Interesting. Chuck

I just wanted to bring this back to the top of the pager for all to see. We've got the GPAA gold show in March and the Summit in April. I'd like to say I could make both but I know that's just a big wish I know can't come true. Chuck

Okay I've said all I'm going to say about MX Sport from White's. Now what I do want to know will it be out by the time the GPAA gold show in AZ ? I ask the same about the Racer 2. If you the powers that be in the know will you please let me know. I got money just burning a hole in my pocket for one of these detectors I'd like to show up at the ICJM big show and hunt my way back home. Chuck

I remember paying that 100 extra for the adapter for my SDC 2300 plus 85 for the cover.That's another detector I don't have anymore. I've had so many different detectors in the last 10 years than in the past 35 before that. I'd say the reason is it's more companies making detectors now. Here I am a big kid in this candy store of detectors and I want them all. Another thing when I was a young big kid I was more concern just to make a living for my family. The kids were like little birds with their mouth open wanting food put in it.. I've told my kids when you get married you have a whole pie to eat together. Now each time you have a kid the part of the pie for you gets smaller. you keep having more kids you won't have any pie at all. I don't what this has to do with detectors. Oh well it didn't cost you anything.haha Chuck

khouse If we never agree again I do on your above post. It's been times in past years I wish my detector was waterproof. Say the time I drop one in the water and it couldn't swim. Lucky for me it was fresh water and it worked after some heat to dry it out. Chuck

khouse That's my trouble now in I got more detectors than I need now. If was to buy the MXS I really don't need it waterproof. I like the big display and other things it has to offer. Years back White's was the only detector I'd buy. But over time I've found out there is other great detectors available. The waterproof adds more weight on what your swinging and that's the only drawback so far I see. Well other what we've been talking about. Chuck

khouse I too am not real happy with the location of the headphones plug. Now with the adapter cord if it's long enough I could run it back under my arm. That's a maybe. I do believe I'll watch the videos on the MXS and Racer 2 before I buy anything. I too want to hear Steve's review on both detectors.. In the pass I had to have the first one out the door. But I'm looking at this detector for my coin detector that I want to have years from now. I want to fall in love with it and with a true love you can't let it go. Chuck
