finally got my etrac

[dirtyknees]

I ordered my etrac from kellyco and 2 days latter it was delivered to my house , now that's service. I couldn't wait to try it so I killed all the remotes in the house at the risk of death to make it happen . after just twenty minutes in my yard over ground that I have detected at least 30 times with my atpro I got two of the oldest pennies that I have found an old alum play coin and what looks like an old musket ball {but I doubt it}. all these were found at a minimum of 6 inches deep. I have a lot to learn but a good start.

Nice machine- going to be a bit of a learning curve, but it will amaze you how much an improvement it is.

[dirtyknees]

working on that learning curve and finding a lot of coins. I haven't found anything old but deep coins from ground that I ve already dug.

belive it or not the e trac is not that hard to learn you will not be long before you are doing well people on this forum are very helpful between them and putting in the time you will be making great finds looking forward to seeing them posted soon

I have slowed way down. detected 6 hours today over used ground did pretty well found an old pocket watch that I had missed with my atpro. the numbers are slow to come up or they don't change at all for awhile is that normal or am I doing something wrong?

I agree with POKIE73, I don't think the E-Trac is all that difficult to learn. In fact, you can pretty much just turn it on and go straight out of the box.

Sometimes I have noticed that the target ID numbers are slow to change on the display. It depends on the depth of the target and the signal strength. The numbers will be slower to change on deeper or smaller targets.

I have been using mine for several months now, Not that bad at all,the only thing is now I forgot how to use my AT PRO??

Hello all,,jumping in on this thread if you don't mind,,,,I ordered the 13" Ultimate DD Coil for mine the other day, Anybody have any experiences opinions with this coil?

[dirtyknees]

that's good to know I thought something was wrong with the etrac. I think I need to see in person with someone who uses the etrac to see the speed of the swing . I think im slow enough but there seems to an awful lot of
signals is that normal ?

[dirtyknees]

in the short time I've used my etrac I retrieved over 150 coins,1911 token , class ring , 1904 ih and an inscribed
wedding band dated 1907 . im talking 2 weeks .

Congrats on the new machine!! You should buy Andy Sabisch's book on the E-Trac, as it will help greatly to lessen the learning curve!!
