    Hello from West Central Missouri

    Hello everyone.

    My name is Charles and I'm new to detecting. I have a Treasure Tracker DX-8000 left to me by a relative. We have used it over the years but lately I've really been interested in taking it up as a hobby. I have always been interested in history, archeology, and arrowhead hunting and the like.

    Recently purchased a Teknetics Delta 4000. I own an older home and have been finding a few things in the yard that I wanted to explore more. I am also interested in finding other places to hunt and people to hunt with.

    I've been reading a couple of forums and wanted to say hello.
