Sourdough Scott

If you want my attention, do a elliptical, no patch lead.

Very nice my friend.

I went to a beaten patch yesterday. I pulled 7 nuggets out of it for approx a 1/4 oz. The reason they were missed by me earlier, it because it is usually very wet ground. But we are having a very dry fall, so I was able to hear the soil better.

And I thought you were taking about a different kind of Piles....

Great job Norm!

You should have hit me up when I'm the Graeagle area. I'd would have bought you lunch.

Wow, sorry to hear this. Not much worse than a Meth head.

It was Roosters fault that I lost it.

I've already posted Rooster before. But he had a wonderful day last weekend with Klunker & I.

I guess not to many Aussies are happy with the price increase.

I just sometimes sit back and think of I'm missing some deeper targets because of what settings I don't run. I 99% of the time run.... High Yield Difficult Sensitivity 16 or so Low smoothing Semi Auto GB I just like a quiet machine. Maybe I need to break out of my comfort zone ?

Not sure why the event was cancelled. But they are having a children's detector hunt this September.

Wes, thanks for the input. Hope all is well with you. Haven't seen you in a long time.

Jim, thank you for correcting me.

If I recall correctly, the coiltek Sadie coil for the gpx series was waterproof. You think for a waterproof SDC, they would have engineered a waterproof coil. SMH?

Has anyone here tried taking the unit to a Batteries Plus store. I have them replace all of my lithium batteries for my cordless power tools. They are better batteries than factory when I get them back. I will have to ask them next time I go into Reno. https://www.batteriesplus.com/

I just spoke with Todd. He said the 10x5 elliptical was the hot ticket for him. Very sensitive. He didn't really like the 14x9 elliptical, not sensitive enough on the small gold. He didn't get the 11 inch round. So no feedback there.

I just got a screaming deal on a SDC 2300. So just inquiring if anyone has any more experiences with the aftermarket coiltek coils? I'm seriously thinking about getting some to make the SDC a patch hunting machine.

Because Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious Scott was already taken.

This is about the finest detecting dog around. Rooster is his name. He is my eyes and ears when my head is down concentrating on signals. He never strays far at all. He works for jerky, ham sammichs, and water. And even the grumpiest prospector I know, the infamous Klunker, even let's him ride in the front seat. ??⛏️

I added a new twist this year. Next to the panning trough. Is a old miners cabin. It has a recording of the trials of the miner back in the day. I was telling the kids the cabin was haunted when they were listening to the recording. When they were all engrossed listening to the story, I would sneak to the opposite side of the cabin,of the doorway where the kids were, and scare them at the window. About 30% of the kids jumped. Ha.

Everything is true. Had a blast.

This is the most boring thread ever. I'm very ashamed that Klunker made me post it. ?

Hearing rumors about a new Minelab detector to soon be released. Just wondering if it is a dedicated gold detector or ?? September 2019 Update - the new Minelab Vanquish has been officially introduced. See the latest information here. Minelab Vanquish metal detector on the way?

Ok, let's see a few of the forums members recent finds. Be sure to include detector settings and GPS coordinates. ?
