    Just ordered a V3!!

    I cannot wait to try it out . Hopefully the ground will not be frozen or snow covered . I also hope it runs right up there with the E-trac and leaves nothing in the ground behind me .

    Congrats! thumbsup01 I believe you will do well with it. It is a fine detector, but, as with any other high end machine, it will require a bit of work to learn its 'language' and different settings. Have fun!

    Re: Just ordered a V3!!

    Thanks for the ++ notes guys. I'll definately will be reporting my results. I have numerous old houses I have permission to hunt, and have already hit them hard with my DFX and MXT, it will be interesting to see if there are any significant finds left. I have pulled 39 Silver coins this year and hope to up that number with the V3, the DFX hit IH's (22 this year) and wheats (219) real nice at these homes. There have been numerous times I have found silver with the DFX and wasn't confident on what it was before digging (broken or varying signal, sometimes just a chirp that I had to rescan to lock in on ( ie. SLQ @ 5 that I thought should have hit me like a sledge hammer thru the head phones). Anyway, I cannot wait to try it out. Dyed in the wool Whites guy I guess, + I have a DX-1 I can throw on it.
