    CTX3030's maiden voyage

    I recently purchased a previously owned CTX3030. Today i took it out for it's trial run. I think i have it set up correctly. I hit the old fair grounds in town. They had just paved an area in front of one of the old buildings. It looks like they took about 4 of dirt away on the fence side. Wish...

    How's the 3030 on the arm?

    Anyone or everyone that uses the CTX3030. Is it easier on the arm than the E-trac? Is it better balanced i guess is my question. I get sore on the top of my arm above my elbow when i swing my E-trac alot. Just wondering. GL/HH

It's a 1945 quarter turned into a ring (sort of). They had been doing construction in the area and i think they moved this up closer to the...

    Back to walker park

    Today i hit a new park but all i found was a little clad and swarms of tiny vampires so i split. I had already decided to hit the park that i had my best silver day at last year on my way back. Last year i got 4 silvers there in one day. One rosie and 3 walkers! I didn't hold out much hope for...

    When will the U.S. get smart?

    When will the U.S. do like Canada and get rid of pennies (and dollar bills too). Some days i feel like i'm single handedly trying to thwart a plan to remove pennies from circulation by some evil doctor who tosses handfuls all over Americas parks and schools. I want to find $1 and $2 coins when i...

It was pretty disapointing too! I did find a cap gun some pieces of copper and a bit of clad. Then on...

    two more he won't get

    After my disappointing hunt of the old house yesterday. I decided to hit the park in town that the other detectorist from out of town hunted. I had to pick up several more screw caps and pull tabs and one of those ballasts for a flourescent light that he left on the surface after he dug them...

    Pro coil cover

    I tried different things to make my 11 pro coil better for hunting plowed fields or areas with stubble or weeds. The frisbee didn't fit and i didn't want to pay the higher price for what used to be called a giant frisbee. (it was about 14 around and usually multi rainbow psycodelic colored) Then...

    another first from MY first park

    I call it my first park because i found my first V nickel, shield nickel, two cent piece and seated coin (1877-cc dime) there. Well, today it gave me my first I.H. penny from the ground. I got one from the lake last year. I decided to open up my discrimination a little and it hit this 1881 I.H...
