    Calabash Digger

    This man has put in thousands of hours to helped so many in this hobby with various detector videos including Minelabs , Deus and Nokta detectors about trouble shooting , understanding settings and general detecting , you name it . His video here Calabash Digger Goodbye to Youtube. Pitfalls of Youtube is about him stepping away from it all .

    I want to personally give a shout out and thank Calabash Digger "CD" for helping with the learning curve of a couple of machines through his videos and wish him the very best !

    Don't be a stranger "CD" , hope to see you around , Thanks !

    Agreed. Calabash has helped a lot of folks. Although I don't agree with everything he put out there, I learned a lot from him. Especially when it came to the differences in approach when going from the D1 to the D2. He helped shorten my learning curve with the D2. I suspect we haven't seen the last of Ol' Calabash.
