DigInTheSand Posted January 27 Author Share Posted January 27 How nice to be welcomed like that, thank you! I am a little nervous actually as I don't want to sound like an idiot - I have been detecting for over 15 years and still don't really know what I'm doing. I keep buying more and more expensive detectors in the hope that they will do the magic for me. Recently I've been thinking of getting a P.I. detector. Duh. This forum is excellent: I have already gleaned a load of very useful info from replies in the Minelab section. Plain English, and it is very encouraging to know that I can finally trust the advise of people that are so familiar and used to the issues that I have. Love the beaches and relic hunting in the woods near me in New York which still have ghosts from the past in 1776. I will read sections of the forum further before asking some questions! Thank you.

rvpopeye Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 Definitely keep reading , but don't hesitate asking yer questions it's the best way to get an answer ! And get up to speed with your detector , learning what they are trying to tell ya is the key to good finds , if you just keep upgrading you keep starting from square one and the only treasarrrr will be for the manufacturer's. ( General rule is 100 hours (if yer payin' attention) just to learn the easy words it's speakin' to ya ! ( some arrrrr easier than others ) .. Not saying you won't "get lucky " ( it has a different definition here than it did in the clubs I spent most of my life workin' in....) LOL😜 ! You already got some pay dirt level luck , you found the best place to learn ! I've been here over 3 years and I still haven't read half of what's already posted , just keeping up with the daily posts takes up some considerable time . Hope you finally become at one with that machine yer swingin' and start hearin' those 1776 ghosts..... Good Luck on yer next hunt ! 🏴☠️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
