I'm dumbfounded at how the EQX performs in iron. I have 400 sites that I'm now going to go back to. Very nice video! Why was that field so narrow? I love those sportsman buttons...but that Irish button is special!

I was just reading that some confederate units wore ethic buttons during the CW. Erin Go Bragh was one of them. Looks like a very cool find! Which mode were you hunting in?...and why was that field so narrow?

Park 2 and modified 5 tones., the field now has trees planted on it and that's the road part.

Man, I really like those finds, especially the buttons. Don't you have an XP Deus too? I may be in the market for a new detector and was leaning towards the deus but that equinox is looking pretty good at half the cost of an XP. How much does the equinox weigh?

I do swing a Deus too. Its a little heavier than the Deus but I can swing it all day too.. With these two detectors in my stable I dont feel outgunned ANYWHERE....

I ordered the Deus today but only because the 800 is on two month back order. I may still get it later this year. I got the WS-5 with full headphones and 9" coil because I hunt in the woods about a third of the time and felt the 11" might be too big. I have an 11" for my DFX and it definitely won't work well in those conditions. Now, when it gets here I will need help with it and no one in driving distance to me has one.

Just let me how I can help. Are you just relic hunting? coin shooting? Nox is a nice machine but Deus has more info in the tones. size shape etc given by tonal nuance.

Mostly relic but always looking for the silver that goes with them.
