Thread: Short AM Hunts

    Short AM Hunts

    Hey everyone,

    Every morning this week I got up with the sunlight and headed out. Mostly a park but also an old field. I've learned 5-tones pretty well on the Equinox and now moving to 50 tones. I'm told it has more modulation which I miss from my T2 in 2-tones. I think the ring is silver and the copper 1828 or 1826. Thanks!

    Sure glad to hear the nox is working for you! Great variety of finds for sure. Hope the 50 tone works out. I've tried it on the CTX for a while. It can be nice in some areas, but in trashy areas it drove me insane. Picture a half dozen caffeinated toddlers on an electronic keyboard.

    That's exactly what I've experienced thus far.
