  1. Good going Rick, at least were still in busness. Now hopefully Aaron is ok.
  2. Oh Oh. I was just on Dimitar's MDT web site. Scrolled down to the "Contact Us" button. Doesn't work. Maybe it's me, someone else could try.
  3. Could be a lot of things. Just hope he's OK. Only Dimitar knows.
  4. You got your hunting area pinned down and looks like you worked it over good too.
  5. Due to deeply sanded in beaches started hunting off beach. These places are very trashy so the smaller coil. These targets were shallow and bedded down with plenty of rusty crown caps. Some change and a Silver ring minus the stone. Hunted in Disc whole time. Believe me it was this kind of hunt or the couch. Fun little over a hour hunt.
  6. These were picked off a wet slope at a wash on the Gulf Coast. They were mixed in and over many tent pegs. Junkers except the Silver 925 with fake stone. This ring is very stained and seems to be of a old style. The MDT is running neck to neck with the Nox gang, with the ability to run run a lot quieter. Gold is far between for everyone combined.
  7. On top of everything else, that's a right handsome ring.
  8. Up where I'm at Dew in most areas targets are few. It can get real quiet in Disc. In these areas AM can give me a good alert. Than check the numbers or switch to disc. Warm weather has brought much larger crowds for the NewYears. Hopefully that and some heaver waves can improve conditions some. Maybe it's just my ear but I think I find deeper targets in AM. Even in Mixed.
  9. So today I'm walking back from a lousy hunt. I hear someone behind me calling " Sir, Sir could you please help me find my Anchor. (he was fiddling with his neck) A very polite Man from India or Pakistan. Had a accent. So we walk down where he lost it yesterday. Gave him my scoop, asked him to draw a circle around where he thinks he lost it. Ok second pass I get a junk metal number -17. He was watching me like a Hawk. I told him it was some kind of junk but I'll dig it anyway. So up pops a Tent Peg (shiny) Man, he scooped it up like a Magnet. "Thank you, thank you Sir for finding my tent Anchor! My wife was very, very mad, now she will be very happy." And away he Goes. So I'm standing there wondering what just happened. Must have lost something in the translation . True story.
  10. Sanded in is really a challenge. Everyone and all machines coming in with low finds. On the other hand someone gets a little luck once in a while. It was my turn the other day. Tarsacci got its first Gold the other day. Just 3.3 grams 14k id tag off a bracelet. Humble as it is it sure felt good. Numbered +03 - +04. No minus numbers. I've been hunting in All metal for the most part. On this beach 9 Frec and lower quiets the machine way down.
  11. Thanks Kaolin, I'll be giving your settings a try on a couple of my burned out sites.
  12. Glad your back in the water Dew. Didn't know your injuries were that bad. Quite a come back. And opening up with the Gold too! Good fer you. I'll be up the Coast and over a bit at PCB come Dec first.
  13. Ridge, that you have a great amount of knowledge on the Tarsacci cannot be challenged. And the questions you ask, well many of us have learned from the answers. I think you live around some hot ground maybe you can relate a thing or two on how the Tar handles in your area. Your settings, what finds you come across, etc. You have a way of writing so that it's understandable. Unlike myself.
  14. There are countless targets in reach of the Tarsacci coils that are available right now, With the limited time thats left to any of us why waste time lamenting about whats to come and get in there and start digging with what we got. All this fussing about not using a machine unless it's with a certain coil is beyond me. If I come across a place that really needs a certain coil I'll take a machine I have thats has one. And Im not alone on this. Everyone doe's. I have 4 machines, but when it comes to wet salt or wading, It comes down to the Tar and My trusty Pulse induction. No matter what coil you got, you gotta put that coil over the target. Lets compare the 12" with the standard coil, not against something that dosen"t exsist. ,
  15. Steve sold me a smaller diameter upper and two lower shafts . So both of my coils have shafts of their own.
  16. Final beach Delaware hunt this morning. The Tarsacci remained quiet hunting on wet salt sand and the surf. Big stainless ring, A Silver ring and necklace, some change. All the junk hoop rings came in the minus 27 area. Much like foil. So for the week 3 Silver rings a necklace and ear ring. Some change. Didn't see anyone hunting a pulse induction every one else with VLF machines stayed on the dry.
  17. Well my first hunt I stayed up on the dry. Terrible, recently replenished. Check trouble finding coil. Next day ,went to wet sand to breaking surf. My previous settings for mild soil wasn't working like I'm used to. Got things quieted down some but getting noise when slapped by waves. Made a few adjustments and that baby became quiet as can be. The only area that started producing was on the surf line. Now I'm finding deep quarter's, and nickels, dimes. Strangely the pennies wernt much deep and seemed to be recent drops. So, production started picking up and today a two Silver Ring day. Pictured are the settings that I found to be the best for now. Second picture today's finds. The deepest targets started by the faintest of tone (signal) even this deep the Tar was giving me the plus numbers as best expected tho of cause not locking down until a couple scoops. By biggest problem is my scoop isn't big enough. I am completely confident in this machine and having a lot of fun. Got two more hunts down here.
  18. Truthfully I haven't found a magic Frec while mud hunting my mild dirt areas. I do lean toward the lower frecs but couldn't tell you why. Depth varies as to the fields I'm hunting. (sports fields) Am heading to a Delaware beach for 7 days next week. Using the 12" coil. This beach is packed with people daily. This is my 12th year staying there for a week. It's a crap shoot cause of plenty of competition but always a lot of fun
  19. Good call on the Double Quarter's. My lake it's the shot gun brass that's all over. One thing for sure, fingers come out a lot cleaner water hunting vs mud fishing.
  20. Grass wasn't much of a problem. What was good was the ground is still moist for this time of year. This a older field but not old enough for Silver coins. Although, have dug a Silver Kennedy half that some kid lost one time. About a half dozen pieces of Silver jewelry threw the years ,but a 158 coins this year and zero bling. Oh, yeah Wheaties arn't uncommon. It's just a nice field to hunt, stays mowed and hardly ever used.
  21. Today, I used Black Sand (first time) Threshold minus one, disc at zero. Sens I usually run at nine, but today I ran at seven. Hunted Mix mode whole hunt. In this field 8 maybe 8.5 inchs is about all the cover there is. Today's deepest coin was a dime at a honest 7.5 inchs. In Mix could l could definitely pick out the chimes. In disc the chimes weren't so definite. Had a small tab in that zone too. Had one target, numbers bouncing all around the teens with plus signs. Around six in" deep, bottom of the plug, a nickel. Checked the plug, just above where the nickel was, layed a small piece of alum. can.
