Hi Beep - Using your EZEmulator program (very good!) I've developed an English coin and trash file. You can make it available for download on your site if you wish. Well, it's of use to us on this side of the pond anyway!

Cheers

HI Neil..

I have a question, hope you can help. I have the V3i, had some nice finds, I have better like tho with the 10x12 SEF coil compared to the DD. I was thinking about getting the 12x15. I know the silver is in the areas I hunt but may be a tad deeper. OR...was thinking about getting the E trac. I was reading today if mineralization is not too good in an area, the etrac can also only hit to depths of 5 to 6 inches? So why spend the extra money if a larger coil would do the trick? I enjoyed you posting in the Whites forum, but there you can only discuss Whites Period. I like your forum because the more you know about other coils and other machines it is helpful. I can get 8 inches on a clad dime with te 10x12 but not with the DD...Ha Ha Ha...Ron

Looks like whoever posted the program dashboard for the V3i worked hard.. but February has long since come and gone... Just wondering what happened to the completed manual programing sheet for the program settings. I say thanks to the person who obviously worked very hard, but would like to see the ability to download the file. When will it be completed..?? Does he need assistance..?? or help..?? If so, please respond when it's convenient. Thanks in advance for your efforts.

I let him go. Those gar are tasty eatin' if you know how to get them open. Since this one came from the bayou, to the bayou he was released. If I'd have taken it from the Brazos or Trinity, his fate would have been very very different.

Thanks. I think I'm going to spend at least one full day at the spring when I go back this summer. I really need to search around the top of the mountain where it over looks the spring. Gotta be some 'cha-ching' up there somewhere.

I did find a dog collar near the bayou. Thankfully the dog wasn't in it.

Went to Oklahoma, then to Arkansas, then back to Oklahoma. Had a nice week of R&R. Didn't hunt much. Mostly we just massacred crappie on the lake. Man, those are some tasty fish. Buddy shot a turkey. Head shot at 50 yards with a .12 guage. Not a single pellet in either breast. The dude can shoot. Then I took him to the mountains and showed him how I hunt. If ever a squirrel had a metal plate in his head, the 2fitty and I would find it.

Ole boy knows how stalk a deer, find a hog, and hit turkey in the right place. I kicked his butt with a beep stick though. The clad came from a camp along the lake. Apparently never been hunted. We have ourselves a spot. For the other finds, we had to drive up a mountain, down a valley, back up the same mountain, then ever further down the next valley on the same mountain. Found the spring, got the water, then did a little huntin' my way.

There used to be an old still up there. Found some plow points and barrel bands up there a couple of years ago, and some steel #9 wire this year. I smell whiskey. My oldest dated find is pictured first. It is part of a .12 guage re-loading tool. NEAT!!!!!!! The axe rang up like a...........dollar!

Dayum!! I didn't know you could time-travel back to the precambrian to hook a freakin' dinosaur, dude!

That is truly a monster. What did you do with the beast?

Went with B.I.T. to one of his spots that I hadn't been to. Got there around 8AM and headed into the woods. There were homeless camp sites, and the homeless themselves within these woods in Houston. That is not unusual, but to see so many is a reflection of the times and, although most are OK, a reminder to be safe. It was a short hunt and B.I.T. had pulled some winners out of here previously, but we had no such luck. Oh well, I hadn't been hunting in a while and it was certainly nice to get out.

B.I.T. used the V3 with the 6x10 and I ran the E-Trac with the stock coil, at least initially. I'd been wanting to try my Sunray Stealth 5" in a trashy environment and it performed very well, in my opinion. Almost all the targets came from my time with the 5". I think this coil will be my "go-to" E-Trac coil for moderately high to very dense trash, or for a smallish area where time would be well spent combing every square centimeter.

Very nice! I've found a few peace signs...one really huge one once. Those faint shallow targets, especially in newer parks and ball fields, indicate smaller items, as you've said. If they hit consistently, they can be worth digging as you've discovered.

$16.67 found to date: Todays highlights modern day pocket spill and a peace medallion.

What an end to a great year, Peace! Today was a day just to dig, dig, and dig. I was mostly seaching for VDI target recognition. I found that those Zinc damn pennies everywhere and they are very pesky and hard to isolate. I was using the preloaded DFX coin and jewelry program and skipping most penny dime ids to find other harder to id VDI responses. Still using the bigfoot coil.

I am now in the mid VDI ranges 40-60 range and found most zincs to be in this range. I also noticed that when I pin point items that show deep they are actually small and shallow. This is where I found the smaller metal items like the silver piece and the cleats and the zipper puller.

Any way hope everyone enjoys the new year and see you on the other side! Peace!!!

Wow man...your finds are increasing in quality!! Those two finds would get my heart going, for sure. You'll get better at ID'ing trinkets and hallmarks too, which is part of the fun.
