Your Favorite Wired Headphones For Sound Quality
jim tn replied to Capphd's topic in Detector Prospector Forum
After trying numerous ones I ended up liking Grey Ghost's the best....good quality sound and the most comfortable. Black Widow's I felt actually had a bit better sound, but didn't fit me quite as well. HH jim tn -

Nox 900 Spreadsheet For Targets Out Yet?
jim tn replied to CoinShooter's topic in Minelab Equinox Forum
I took delivery of my 900 a week ago today and my first hunt with it was last Fri. and I have hunted with it daily since. One site in particular I was noting somewhat bouncy numbers, a park that once was a home site and has quite a bit of iron and gravel areas, and I recall recovering a Merc. dime that sounded rather ratty with numbers bouncing from around 80 to 86. It was 5-6" deep. A silver dime yesterday at 5" pretty much locked on 82 and most clad and cents I've recovered weren't all that bouncy as well. Recovered a 3 clad quarter stack this morning at 4" that was a lock 91-92. Thought I might have a silver quarter. Anyway, thus far for the most part I'm not experiencing the wide range of numbers that some others report. I will be up in Mn all next week and the area we'll be at has 4 bar (F75) ground. That will be a better test as my ground is (F75) 2 bar dirt on the average. Almost all my hunting has been in park 1 with sensitivity 24-26. HH Jim Tn -
Welcome, Jeff, haven't turf hunted in Fl for about 4-5 years, but the few times I did I went to city parks and schools. Knew/know state parks are off limits, but city parks and schools were ok. I know people hunt inland, so not everywhere is off limits. Might check around and see where the closest metal detecting club is located and attend a meeting. You may not learn anyones secret (good) spot, but you will get a general idea where some hunt other then the beaches. Good luck, this is a great hobby. HH Jim Tn

You are not alone, adc, you have idiot company. I just peeled the bubble right off. For my old eyes, however, that film protection is not easy to see. Anyway, all is good. HH Jim Tn

Just received a Nox 900 yesterday and noted a small bubble on the screen. Haven't messed with it yet and not too happy about dealing with sending it back, if I do deal with it. HH Jim Tn

Thinking Of Getting A New Detector
jim tn replied to Diggin' It's topic in Metal Detector Advice & Comparisons
I have the Equinox 600 and just received a 900 and the 600 has been a great detector. I mainly hunt for old coins and in some pretty nasty spots and the 600 had me shaking my head with some of the recoveries I made. 1 such was a 1790 half Reale with a rusty screw in the same hole. SMF is the way to go! HH Jim Tn -
Thinking Of Getting A New Detector
jim tn replied to Diggin' It's topic in Metal Detector Advice & Comparisons
I had a A T Pro for a good number of years. Good detector, but not a depth demon and does not have the recovery speed as does most of the smf detectors available today nor is it as good in harsher more mineralized ground. And, there are some smf detectors that sell for the same and less then the A T Pro. Good luck and have fun with whatever you swing. HH Jim Tn -

Welcome from Tn! Oh, I might be a little saner then a certain someone from Maine, too. But that's just a guess on my part. Good luck! HH Jim Tn

Welcome aboard from a born and raised, wife too, fellow from the golden gopher state. Still get back up there every summer for some walleye fishing. Great hobby we belong too. HH Jim Tn

Good going! A 2 silver hole is always kind of special, but one with a Walker half is even more so. HH Jim Tn
