    Audio Issue with 3030

    Maybe I'm just missing something... I had not noticed this before, but generally I have my headphones on when I turn my machine on. However, the other day a friend of mine wanted to check out my 3030, when I turned it on, I noticed I could hear the external audio as though the headphones were...

    Quick Hunt

    A and I got together for a quick evening hunt yesterday. We hit 2 spots we had hit over the years. They've been pretty picked clean by us. At the first spot, I managed a small cal. musket ball (as you can see from the pic it's very small) At the second spot, I finally managed to squeeze a...

    Button or Cap?

I found it in THE PARK where I have found Large cents all the way to modern coins, but we have also found military items too, musket balls, a sharpshooters badge from 1902, it's not too far from the Springfield Armory. My thought was...

    Anyone use the DEUS?

    I am contemplating buying a new detector. I have an e-trac, and am debating between a 3030 and a DEUS. I've played with others 3030s before, and I have read and seen the results from others. But I just don't know much about the DEUS. I don't really hear about anyone using the DEUS. Anyone have...

    Other uses for our detecting skills and tools

    I have been thinking about different ways on how metal detecting impacts our daily lives.... 1) Picking up dog poo on the yard: the method used in gridding in detecting has made me very efficient at finding and removing dog poo in the yard. lol 2) Superb landscaping tools: The shovels are...

    B.O.N.E. in NH this past weekend

    I went up to New Hampshire for the BONE goins on this weekend. I was a little disappointed in the show and lectures. The guys Minelab sent out really didn't know the machines and they didn't even bring a detector into the siminars. However, I met a lot of great guys and made a lot of new...
