    Hi,
    I live 45 miles south of Chicago, in the Kankakee area. I have been detecting since the early 70's. If you are ever in the area and want to detect, drop me a line. thumbsup01

    Hey Rodbuster that would be great. Im always up for some detecting on the weekends. What type of machine do you use. I use the V-3 but I am very much a newbie and still dont understand my machine that well, although im getting better with it. Looking forward to meeting you soon!

    Anytime you guys want to get together let me know.
    Each time we go out, we could try someone's local spot.
    Since we are not down the road from each other
    we could try a area were we haven't been before.
    Think about it, spring will be here before you know.
