Gerry in Idaho Posted February 5, 2023 Share Posted February 5, 2023 23 hours ago, RONS DETECTORS MINELAB said: The sensitivity was still fairly good and I was picking up the little bits pretty good. I know your capabilities Ron as we've hunted together a few times and will in the future. But when mentioning your finds, please share a pic or two. I'm still frozen in Idaho, so seeing some of your Au along with your read is tops. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geof_junk Posted February 5, 2023 Share Posted February 5, 2023 Back in the early 90s I used Nickel Shield Conductive Paint that came in a spray can. It worked good on coils that I made and repaired, as well as the crude PI that I made before commercial PI detectors hit the gold fields. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smelt like Juicy Fruit chewing gum if I recall..... Worked really well on coils like you said. Still not as highly reflective as Copper apparently? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arky Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 This little guy was about 6" down in an old drywash pile directly under a triple high power line. 14 DD after the audio fix. Very quiet using Bluetooth headphones. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phrunt Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 I know the feeling, these were certainly found in a place the 14" DD was beneficial. I just wish there was a smaller DD. No headphones for me, this was speaker! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
