  1. I know basic stuff for us but good advise for those new old farts ! So yer piggy bank is on it's own :cool: (I couldn't find the emoji with both eyes shut  !)

    I've enjoyed their video's the country is nice looking camping , that helicopter ride to the prospect site must be awesome and the gold looks pretty good too.  I'm pretty sure I haven't seen any painted rocks either and speaking of either , either she doesn't show all that she finds or she's not making a lot.  This new vid makes me think she might be hoping for some extra clicks and new subscribers . Thought we might be able to help with that.   And her nice hat blew off and fell down a mine shaft so that's just a substitute and she needs a proper new best hat too !

    Go Krissy!, and Mark , wherever you are?

     

  2.  

    Dear Jed:

    Get the biggest rifle you can find and set it and the best shot in the camp up on the highest point that the gun still has enough wallop to blow a hole in the first attacker you could throw a cat through ,, and the rest of your crew start digging and GIT 'ER DONE !

    One look at something like that would produce a scattering effect seldom ever and probably never seen in those gold fields.  

     

     

     

    No , I didn't learn that on the touring circuit , though it might have come in handy a time or two . 

    I know a very poilte "retired" Canuck special forces guy , he always said "terribly sorry" .

    Great campfire stories , I have heard,,, if you think THIS one has you on the edge of your seat !   Personally , I would have of course preferred the already mentioned pirate method . Yo oh ! 

    811 ozt ! Pfeeeeeeeeeeeewww  (kinda makes it hard to breath !) Good thing the hooligans  don't know that , it would certainly narrow that scatter effect. 

  3. How many toes DOES he have anyway ? Is it 2 or 10, ?

    Maybe it;s 2 EXTRA toes huh ? and it's 12 !

    Could it be an "Ancient Alien"👽 encounter explains this mystery? 

    Will the answer be found on this episode ?

     Will they find the Arc ? (Noah's , not the Covenant , that's another show)

      Will that "top pocket find" be disclosed also ?

     

    Where's the Radio Shack ? I have questions !

     

  4. Those will Attenuate (cut back) frequencies below the 200Hz cut off point. Depending on the cut off slope (probably 3dB per octave?) so even if it was at the same level ,,,not too much closer to the 200 and the lower Hz more.  Leave 'em in the cart and try less bass heavy phones like suggested ^ which may or may not be different in your favor... The Quincy Jones signature AKGs I think 701's ?  are studio flat I have a set somewhere. I'll do a test with my Nox  to see if it would help ? ya . Not sure what sound profile your ears prefer so might be a personal test required... Think foamy ear cushions vs the tightly sealing ones .

     A little battery powered eq (like a GTR stomper) probably wouldn't get you much closer either unless you can strap some parametrics and a generator in there somewhere !  Sorry it wasn't so simple man , I feel yer pain.

    OSM sez (Old Sound Man) When in doubt hook 'er up !  it might blow , but then y'll know....skuh kuh kuh kuh Just kidding.

    On a better note , some detectors can adjust the volume level of the tone segments  (nox +? )

  5. Yeah , he even showed you where he parked !  😇    Seems to do alright ,,,he got that car with rings !

    I worked Hampton and Salisbury and most of the Boston circuit clubs back in the biz too. Things have changed a lot since then I guess probably would not recognize anything except for the beaches themselves . If the area around OOB is any indicator .  Could find 'em all by water though but me Cap traded the Whaler for a retro canned ham camper ! Can't fish in THAT ! And then he moved to Virginia ,James river on the bay.....

    Now jonesing for another Montauk ! with a ski tower , for TUNA !

    That's me Cap !  From Southport Isl .  There be pirates there !       Anyway.....

    Never explored much below the border by sea  , you must know a lot of little hard to find beaches  having a boat down there ! (you seem to know some up here too)

    Think my cuz might still have a little aluminum outboard ( sears?) , not sure how many lifejackets ????😉 Maybe I should pick up a survival suit before asking ...little boats are nice but they belong on lakes don't they ? Definitely NOT outside  ! 

    Dick's in S Portland has some MineLab 800s+540s but that's it , no pointers , scoops or anything. Cabella's is supposed to have some prospecting accessories too . The rest of the places I've found just have the ~$100 units on the shelf.. 

     My main reason to go to Hampton is Seacoast Coin   ,I'd rather buy someplace local than Amz,  Just found the website thx for the name.

    Not much to pick from detectorwise uptah camp in the Pine Tree. arrrrrrrr

       

  6. Popham is a nice beach but the rangers are hard to find for a pass..

    Like the "burg"  ,, good history at Popham Colony and fishin' fer Stripers by the fort !  The ranger at Reid much easier to find ! 

    I worked  many nights at The Meadowbrook on the circle in  Pmouth  in 80s +90s ! Probably long gone by now ? Crossfire , Crybaby , Magic  some of the bands ..

    My cousin lives on the Eliot side of the TPK now .  Worked at the doesn't always float boat yard . Retired. Trying to get him hooked on detecting ..  And I want to check out the detector store in Hampton  ( possibly the reason for less finds there now ,,,or maybe this guy> ?) +try to spot the NH Beach YT guy , he moved to a block from the beach now so out there a lot ! I'd like to search that beach to see if he ever misses a ring ? LOL  (when it gets a little warmer like wednesday did).  BUT , Long day trips are few with a 98 YO mom to keep happy. OOB typically my southern limit but the grass is always greener on the other side ! 

    Putting it off as long as possible but gotta go out and shovel the latest mess ~6" here,  (7* atm. arrrrrrgh)......😋

     

  7.  

    I've sometimes wondered if those terms were created by the chamber of commerce LOL

    "There are no rules , it's more like guidelines" 

    The Lobbie boats are the real deciders out there  !

     Kennebec and Penobscott rivers are the natural dividers , "close enough for gov work" arrrrr That beach is just north of the Kennebec ,,but I live south of it closer to Beans. 

     

     

     

  8.  Resting in peace undah that tree or rock down yondah chummy  !         Sly ol' Jed didn't put that location down in the book I bet !    And no geologist report has the stash location charted. hmmmmmmmm, and were there 4 stash piles as per the original agreement ?????

    And you asked a question about detectors finding large gold very deep..LOL 

    I am somewhat telepathic , I can tell you what you're thinking .

    If you tell me enough times...

    Sure , I'll come help ya look , but can ya wait till my mom passes ? She's the only reason I'm up here hanging in this icicle land beyond september  ( I'm slowly being covered in white again as I type this)  she's 98 but still speaking what's left of her mind and firing the staff at the home on a daily basis usually for stealing her stuff ,,,,that she hides so they don't steal it and then can't find it herself..... so might outlive ME.             I guess !😜 

    What is winter like up there ? can ya still push a shovel in the ground ?     Like that matters when you have an excavator ! 

    I have a few ideas about site security though ,,,ya knowww a mine site is a dangerous place if ya don't know where to step....and have I got campfire tales about how to keep people away from the wiring. Did you know lots of times they have electricity in them ?

    May I have my next installment now ?
