    Ace 350 headphone jack relocation

    My only real complaint with the 350 so far has been the headphone cord. Mostly it's location to be specific, length is secondary. Plugging into the side of the head unit, it magically snags on my glove strap, branches in the woods, somehow wraps around the head when I want to set the 350 down...

    Farmers market=Coin farming - 7.19

    Didn't make any plans for this weekend hoping my friend Nate would decide to hit up his hunting area today, would have liked another shot at the barn hole today. But he didn't. Too bad. Cool and cloudy must have made for yet another great Saturday in the woods. So, did some morning chores...

    Barnhole & site - 7/12

    I'll definitely get back there a couple more times with Nate, even if it's short trips. Don't think this weekend is happening now though. Stick close to the barn this time. With the limited time available, and seeing evidence it had been hit, I wandered out to see what there was to see. And...

    Barnhole & site - 7/12

    Took a ride with my friend Nate and his missus to metal detect what you guys identified as a barn hole this morning. Another nice Saturday to be in the woods. I'm getting spoiled. My buddy Ron was along too, swinging his unused Bounty Hunter that got me interested in detecting. Hiked down a...

    Ace 350 arm cuff fix

    Out in the woods Saturday, and with an hour to go before bail time, my arm cuff falls off after a whopping 6 weeks... D'oh. Thankfully had some painters tape holding gallon ziploc baggies on the detector in case of rain, etc. Patched... Apparently the engineers decided the upper half of the cuff...

    Outta the woods, onto the lawn - 7/5

    Knew I was going somewhere today, and after 1 plan fell through this week, I got the invite to go detecting cellar holes with del. Sweet! He had places to be so it was a short trip, and we were on the road by 1PM. I didn't get squat in 5 hours, had a bad detector day, but the breeze through the...

    What kind of foundation?

    A friend of mine from work is a hunter, and has permission to hunt private property here in the state. This was a spot he noticed while walking to his killin' grounds. The owner is OK with him bringing in 1 or 2 of us in the same car, just finding a day we can get there is tough lately. Hoping...

    Post-carnival coinshoot 6/30

    Had the bug to go picking once or twice after work this past week for an hour or so, and I actually targeted what's likely a target rich beach. But after two tries at different times on different days, I'm going to have to wait for a poopy day, or the end of the season. Knowing my weekend was...

    DFX: cost and concerns?

    So back in the beginning of May when that relentless little bug to try detecting started biting deep, a DFX (spectrum E) was posted on the fishing site I haunt. I almost dived on it, but wound up passing for a couple reasons for now. It was purchased 8 or so years ago for a trip to the...

    1'st trip in the woods, and with a couple of the CT crew.

    Couldn't have asked for a nicer day for it either. Thank you del (Dan) and OxShoeDrew for the invite. What better way to welcome someone new to the hobby. I was surprised to get in the car and see it was 3:45 when Dan and I finally left. I could have poked around for another hour or so and not...

    New digger in CT

    Hi all. Name's Brian, I'm 45, and live in Ellington, CT. Brand new to the hobby. A friend got a Bounty Hunter for X-mas, and I was more interested with it than him. Once we thawed out from the Polar Vortex, the bug got worse, and I finally pulled the plug a few weeks ago. An Ace 350, Pro...
