Good way to put it all in perspective Steve---kinda opens our eyes to the "here and now" of it---- And although my personal hope is in another----- I understand exactly what you are saying as far as the new excitement and hope that the new tech gives us as prospectors.... I am blessed with a meaningful job and it gives me ability to go out and hunt at least 3-4 times a week So I cant complain about time---which is what most people lack But, I am also experiencing something i would rather not-- and that is 'older age,'---and a body that complains a little more than it used to... Merely climbing up those steep canyons is not as easy as it once was, so i have a limitation there..... So because of that, is becoming increasingly MORE and MORE important to me to have the latest greatest equipment that is available, and to use all the resources available to help me be on the proper gold bearing ground at the very get go--- Exploring, researching, having the best equipment available, and being on good ground to start with,,, is turning out to be tantamount in order for me to exploit the attributes I stil have left ---- body, mind, and locaton. As I have said in the past, this particular forum is "THE" forum for education in all "matters golden"----and I appreciate it... Thanks, paul

Update on the Kleer headphones system.. TDK The headphones worked great with the 2300---no lag at all that i could tell. Sound quality is good and best of all i can increase volume with the headset. The procedure is like this: 1- Get a 1/4 inch adapter 2- Plug it in and then plug in the provided Kleer transmitter with the provided adapters 3-Turn on detector 4- Power up the transmitter by pushing a button on it 5- Power up the headphones by pushing a button on the right side headphone cover 6- Tuck the transmitter neatly into the camo cover -(it is a big as a matchbox) 7- Put on headphones and adjust volume on the right side of headphones. That's it! One thing i like is that they are light, but they keep the noise out well---- i like to run with my left one cocked off my ear a little so i can hear what is going on around me. They are light enough that when you aren't using them you can just hang them around your neck--- This also is handy when you are digging so they won't fall off you head---or so you don't have to always pick them back up and put them on to check your hole. That is the end of my review of the TDK Kleer tech headphones. Well worth it for me, but hard to find.... It may be worth checking out Tvanwho's post above for some Senhauser's that are still in production. ****UPDATE** I just looked at the Sennheiser's and i did not see a mini transmitter---it appeared to only have a headphone dock/transmitter station. The headphones are docked there to recharge i think...so it is probably unacceptable for real wireless on the go usage...nice looking headphones though.... Maybe i could use a set of them with the transmitter i already have??????

The 8 inch on the sdc left me feeling a little overwhelmed today when I went to an area of about 1000 acres... So I did it like they say you eat an elephant....one bite at a time...going back tomorrow for another helping!!!

Ditto the above...keep up the great work... We appreciate your company

I'll go half with you...if you dig! I know you can dig good...

Nice write up.

Bpto.... Or bass per troy ounce Has many variables...the ionization of the water, the turbidity, mercury content, If you figured the cost of the boat, plus fuel, permits, licences, bait, and beer for some... I imagine the price of bass to be way more than gold!!!!!

http://www.onegeebungee.com/products/whamma-jams-adjustable-hooks.html After putting my bungee on the clamp\hook it appears that the hook is turned the wrong way for me...I have to pull the bungee away from me to make it snug up...oh well...

I found some neat bungee ends that are quick stop...I will take pics..got them at Ace Hdwe. A guy in reno makes them - Onegee or something like that

Tvanwho found the best deal so far. .. Read above

Thx Trev... I was there in 2012...on the north...would love to come and see the south

Heck, I'll go anywhere. . but as I am looking at Canadian duty fees..I am not so excited...but still trying to get a grip on things..

Whether or not their intention was to help the home team ... i won't pay 10000 USD when I could make a trip and get one there in OZ... [or wherever] I am used to traveling!!!

You may want to ship a few Rick!!! Seriously...

That's what i just did renochris.. 10700.00 AUD equals 8368.00 USD -1255.00 military discount 7113.00 USD [but may not get military discount if I bought in AU--will have to check on that] And will have to check on Mexico and Canada's prices] This is fun fun fun. ....hahaha

Nice touch

So if my logic is correct... I could save money and even have a good trip to boot. If customs or something like that didn't spoil it for me.

Used my Kleer TDK headphones today on 3500... they appeared to work fine with no back talk at all....pretty sweet

"After looking at my setup...I am going to take this rig off and see if it is the cause of the incessant warble I get. Maybe that speaker and aluminum are being picked up by the coil...." Well... Cut off aluminum and detector quieted down immediately. ...thanks Gary Never would have thought it being that far away... Plus I used my Kleer TDK headphones today on the 3500 and they were fun....very light rig

So it would be cheaper for me to fly to AU and buy one there.... Someone said they are 10900AUD Thats 9265 AUD....after 15% off for military Then 9265.00 AUD equals 7222.00 USD 7222.00 should be US price after military discount..... What's up?

I liked that too...idjits Waaaaagh...I want my Turdy-five hundred back!!!!!!

No way. ....psssssst....that is the air leaving my sails Oh well... Gotta pay to play Wow...I am amazed, in sticker shock.. someone said, beware..

Oh. ....ouch...that's gonna leave a mark Say it ain't so. ...

I got some left over from my tv.
