  1. thanks, now I know what mosquito farts sound like! you did a good job on the video though, I could follow along easier than when I'm using my detector. am I right that the display on the left shows where under the coil the target is? if so , major cool. I do like the pinpointer sound too.
  2. Eklawok, I also am trying to teach myself how to pop coins with a screw driver. I usually give up and dig.
  3. Chuck, I just wanted to report my ground number is 64. I don't really know how that might affect the mxs, but I thought you might be interested .
  4. yah but its broken twice, and even gorilla glue wont fix it now. I think I might get one like yours. thanks for the replys gentlemen.
  5. thanks for the cool pics, I'm going to show my little one.
  6. I broke my digging tool, so I'm looking for ideas on what to replace it with. I know for prospecting you all use a pick. as do I, but that won't do for turf! this is what I've been using. works great turf.
  7. if you really want to challenge that frenchie machine, come over to my back yard!
  8. whew, that makes it not the one I worked at. I worked there late 70's .because we used to throw spark plugs and stuff into the field behind our station(I'm sorry)
  9. well my back yard has a power pole and I'm detecting under wires, so I expect it affects performance. on the upside,I was out in the garage and just for the heck of it I put a tape measure on my digging tools scale and its short a quarter inch or more. (plus I broke the handle). so my depth report is a little short. send yours back again.
  10. you know after reading your story again, I think I worked at that gas station. any idea when it closed, or the brand of the station.
  11. Hi chuck, I was in coin and jewelry mode. it does seem ok to me, I also tried high trash, and it works well, cuts down on all the junk sounding off. I'm going back out there this weekend and try some more stuff. I'll post when I do. good luck.
  12. well after 2 hours with it, I don't think I have tone smearing. it does have depth, found a copper cent at 7 inches, and there was a big nail right under it. so it seems that it there is trash in the hole or really close, I get a sort of short crackle sound next to the good sound. seems to work well, as an aside I'm having problems with my garret pinpointer, which is new too. and in my back yard I can't set either down to dig unless I turn them off because of the high trash scenario.
  13. I was up there recently and the water was coming off the hills from the snow melt. but was still able to get back to a claim. river was running fast too.
  14. my garret carrot interferes with the mx sport. however the carrot just died so I might be sending it back. only when on that is.
