I went down to the local city park by my house and detected for about two hours. I found a little clad, and very near where I dug the silver ring and wheat penny last hunt my E-Trac let out a 12-45 squeal at 6 inches. I checked from a 90-degree angle and got the same results. I knew I had a...

I have been out of commission for a long while. It's a long story, but I am happy to report that metal detecting is just like riding a bike! :lol: I went out to the old city park by my house and detected again for the first time in many many years. Boy did it feel great! I ended up walking away...

It has been awhile since I have posted. I Just wanted to say, Happy Thanksgiving, and Merry Christmas! I have not been able to detect in many years, but my Minelab E-trac sits in the corner calling to me every day. The excitement of cutting that plug comes to me in my dreams every once in...

Well, the title of the post says it all. I am due for artificial knees sometime in the next 10 years. The Doctor wants me to wait as long as possible as they only last for 15 to 20 years. Anyway, I am doing well with cortizone shots now and starting to feel like I want to go detecting again...

Here is a link to a downloadable version of a sixteen page, illustrated article I wrote several years ago. This is in PDF format, and may be shared freely as long as the original content of the article is not changed. For those unfamiliar with "A Parkway Strip", it is the small area between the...

If you ever get to the Front Range area of Northern Colorado there is one thing you should definitely experience. That would be the view of the sunrise on the Rocky Mountains from Johnson’s Corner restaurant as you eat breakfast. Just a little south of Loveland, Colorado along I-25 is one of the...

There is a quote from a John Steinbeck novel where he states the following, What good is the warmth of summer, without the cold of winter to give it sweetness. While I understand his sentiments, there is nothing sweeter in my mind than a warm December day in Colorado. All to often by this...

Took a little away time to travel to the Western Slope of Colorado to visit the town of Grand Junction where I grew up. I often visit the remnants of a little park nearby where we stay with relatives. This little park has been the subject of many of my shared hunts here on American Detectorist...

I guess it's V-Rated... http://www.whiteselectronics.com/detech-coil I jumped on the Band-Wagon on the version made for the E-Trac. It works well. Kind of makes me want to get one for my V3.

Looking forward to information, and comparisons on this pin-pointer. Anybody had a hands on yet?

I sat in my office last night, and looked at the Metal Detectors hanging on the wall. My current collection consist of A Minelab E-Trac, White's V3, and last but not least a JeTco GTX Huntmaster. The later was a gift from a good Customer of mine. He thought I might be interested in it. He...

The light wind combined with a 28 degree temperature caused the tip of my nose to sting, and reminded me that I was in fact hunting on a Winter's day. With a blind faith that the wind would dissipate, and the sun would soon do it's job I walked out into the remains of an old park that I have...

This is actually kind of amazing. If you listen close you can hear the comments from the person shooting the video. I have never seen anything like this before. I have never been one to buy into this nonsense, but this makes you wonder. I am very, very leery now days with the ability to edit...

So, what would you like to see in a new White's Detector? Now, I don't want to hear stuff like a solar powered coffee warmer on the arm cuff, or laser guided coil systems, but what features would be nice to see? Is it going to take a break from their current technology to compete with what...

The Fall colors exploded as the sun came up over the horizon. The feel of the old park became almost surreal as I walk a short distance from my car to enjoy a little metal detecting for the first time in quite awhile. I was very excited to get out, and enjoy this beautiful Autumn day. This...

I was wondering if there is a preferred channel to hunt with on the CTX? I know on my E-Trac I manually set the channel to 2 or 9, and generally get better performance irregardless of EMI conditions. Is the CTX like this as well? Jack

Hello American Detectorist! Please forgive me. It has been ages since I made a post. In fact I have only been out hunting about 7 or 8 times this year. For just a few hunts I have done very well on the Silver, especially over on the western slope of Colorado where we have traveled 5 Times so...
