Found A Gun Buried In My Backyard!
Cascade Steven replied to Golden_Republic's topic in Metal Detecting For Coins & Relics
Very nice find! Congratulations. I am curious as to what method you used to clean it to remove dirt without damaging the surface? -
V3i - Screen Replacement Substitute
Cascade Steven replied to chiil's topic in White's Metal Detectors
I checked out the ebay add and noted that they do not accept returns. However, for that price, at least to me, a no-returns policy is not a big deal, and actually a moot point. If I had a V3i, and these will work, I personally would be ecstatic to have the option of an inexpensive replacement available. And I would seriously consider purchasing at least one to have on the shelf for a spare, while these are available. -
V3i - Screen Replacement Substitute
Cascade Steven replied to chiil's topic in White's Metal Detectors
Thanks for sharing! I hope it works out for you. It would be great for people to have a "work-around" replacement when the NOS White's screens are no longer available. Looking forward to your update report. -

Steve: Thanks for the info on the coils. -
6" Concentric For 24K Finally Available
Cascade Steven replied to phrunt's topic in Garrett Metal Detectors
Steve: you mentioned that Garrett did a total remake on the 6" coil. I am curious what the "remake" entails, if that information is available and can be shared publicly? I am also curious if anyone has had the opportunity or plans to compare the in-field real-world performance between the White's 6" coil and the Garrett 6" coil. Just intellectual curiosity. -
Memory Lane Of Yesterday’s Past
Cascade Steven replied to Ridge Runner's topic in White's Metal Detectors
Thanks for sharing the wonderful memories. I too was sad to see them go. -
My 2-cents worth. For the amount of detecting I have time to do, and for the ground conditions I experience, my Whites Goldmaster 24K and also my TDI SL will be more than adequate. I hunt mostly for gold and occasionally for coins and relics. For me they are great. In addition, I have always been a fan of Whites, so I will never give them up. I have found that for the mild soils where I detect, they both serve their intended purposes very well and I am very satisfied with them.

Whites Electronics History Question

Geotech: Thanks for your thoughts and also the link. -
Whites Electronics History Question
Cascade Steven replied to Cascade Steven's topic in White's Metal Detectors
Digalicious: Thanks for the links. Much appreciated. -
I am interested in the history of White's Electronics. So, just for fun I have decided to start researching their history. This is just a personal interest project for me. I have found just a few newspaper articles, some patent numbers and have or have reference to a few of their brochure packets. I am interested in all of their history, from the inception, through the geiger counter phase, why they started making metal detectors, when various models were introduced, etc. to the end of the business. Does any one know of any written history on the company or does anyone have any references or links to references that they are willing to share? PM's are welcome. Thanks in advance for any help.

Kac: thanks for the additional info. Maybe I missed it, but I have a question on the diodes: do you have a part number such as 1N??? Thanks. -

TDI SL Training Video's Question
Cascade Steven replied to Cascade Steven's topic in White's Metal Detectors
GB-Thanks for the help. -
I bought my TDI SL just as White's was closing. Due to other time commitments I have had only limited time to learn the machine. Reading various posts here and on other forums I realize that there are a lot of techniques that I need to learn, whether for gold, relics or coins. My primary interest is gold, but I occasionally search for relics and coins. I have tried searching this forum for information on techniques and videos but no luck. When I use the search term "TDI SL" I do not find any results. I have found just a few videos on YouTube. Any guidance on search terms, links to training videos here or elsewhere, or links to text on techniques would be greatly appreciated. I realize that I may have missed the obvious, and if that is the case, I apologize in advance. Thanks for the help.

This may be a silly question, but here goes: Do you still have the broken piece(s) from the edge of the meter cover? If so, with very careful work, it may be possible, using plastic model cement, to glue the pieces together and then attach them to the original meter case. Just a little food for thought. Best wishes with your repair/replacement.

Tdi Pro Coil Comparison On The Goldfields
Cascade Steven replied to karelian's topic in White's Metal Detectors
I am not an Axiom owner but am curious if Garrett's Axiom suffers from the same "blind spot" issue and if so this poses a similar question as to how to fix it other than cover the same area with different settings? Thanks
