    new member from northern michigan

    Hi all, pointer80 here from northern michigan. just sold my whites dfx on ebay and stepped up to a spectra V3. I know I have alot to learn with this new detector but, I think Im up for the challenge. This sight seem like a wealth of knowlege. That should help alot.

    Welcome from Chester County, PA. I've definitely found some coppers and silvers with the V3 in the same areas I've hit with the DFX.
