sillllvar Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 After work a quick 2 hour hunt with the Nox 800. I hunted in Field 2 . It ran really steady. The last time I was there I had 3 or 4 non ferrous items in 6 hours of hunting. I feel that if I had had a full day I would have had a heap more targets with the Nox. Guy's with the few hours I've had with the 800 I am already impressed. The very smallest button was a 9 on screen and I can safely say that I would not have found that with my explorer %100. The tone was low and soft and deep! The circular bronze item is a first for me here in the US. I've found these before in the UK. I believe it is part of a specific kind of woven button. Another Wow moment was the shell casing. It was a high number mixed in with a pile of iron sounds and numbers. There was so much Iron in that spot I knew again I would not have detected the target. Back out again on Friday after work ? I'm not going to lie, its a learning curve but I think I did ok for the first couple of hours.

sillllvar Posted May 17, 2018 Author Share Posted May 17, 2018 The site was a very pounded 1700's cellar hole. Detected by me and others multiple times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sillllvar Posted May 17, 2018 Author Share Posted May 17, 2018 So it's come back to me! The Metal ring is from a Dorset button most likely....1730's I'm thinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steveg Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 NICE job on your first hunt, sillllvar! Sounds like you will get along just fine with the Equinox! Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Gillespie Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 I'll admit, my Equinox teaches me something new each trip. I truly love this machine over all others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackpine Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 I'll be taking the 800 out to a similar type site today, albeit not as old as yours, where non-ferrous finds of any kind have all but dried up. When I first read about the Nox this was the first place I thought of taking it to see if it truly is a game changer. Good or bad, results to follow.
