You know what, after some thought, you're right...i apparently don't fit in here.
Its in my nature to help people here by sharing any detecting experience i have, my electrical engineering...
All meant as a CTX/eTRAC friendly rivalry jabbing is all. ;)
Guess i'll have to be more careful from now on as i sense some are taking it seriously. :(
Sounds about right for a 1st time eTRAC user. :nod:
Since digging a lot of nails, looks like you might of been using the all metal discrimination pattern while your cousin might of been using a...
Would of been great if you found the bridge. At least you tried. :Thumbs-Up:
What is puzzling, is that if i lost my permanent bridge, i would know it instantly and where i was at the time.
Unless...
HOLY SMOKES! How do you CTX guys keep track of all those options! :confused:
Just how long is the CTX learning curve to become a CTX Master detectorist?
Sure looks to me it could be a lifetime and...
Sounds like those CTXs' have a lot of complicated options. Think i'll stick with my simpler eTRAC.:)
By the way, although the iron oxide halo is likely a contributor to all this, don't disregard...
Here's my 2 cent theory, really a guess, why rusty iron IDs not only conductive but worse yet generates a silver IDs sometimes.
Gonna talk mostly deep large rusty nails here, my own personal...
The potential health issue is that most volume control knobs tend to move when the detector is stowed away.
My ATPro's volume level is solely controlled by the headphone knobs and nowhere else. One...
We are talking headphones and not the speaker? Right?
Keep in mind, my opinion was for the eTRAC. This might not hold true for other detectors which do not have automatic audio gain features for...
I think when your coil sweeps over that large chunk of gold alloy or not, you'll know it.
Assuming it was a recent loss and a junk strewn area, you might want to significantly reduce the...
That golden rivet story for some reason reminded me of the last RR spike used in the construction of the first U.S. transcontinental rail line basically connecting the East Coast to the West Coast. ...
LOL, better late than never! :nod:
I hate fallen trees too.
Had a large limb land on my house roof during a bad storm a couple years ago. Punched a hole in the roof and took out the gutters....
No date! Interesting!
Any readable text at all on the coin?
Is it lighter than a dime? Say made out of aluminum? Pot metal?
If no date or text, could just be some kind of old fancy token.
The...
