I went back to the hunted out park today. I was there for a few hours using Magics program again looking for old nickels. I have been paying close attention to the bouncy signals in the nickel range. I ended up with 5 nickels 4 dimes and 10 pennies, one of the nickels being an 1889 V. I would...

I got back out to the park this afternoon for a few hours. I only got 13 coins but did manage a 1903 V nickel. I have my tones set to where VDI #18 and 19 are set different then 20 and up. I did this so that when i got one of those bouncy signals in the nickel range i can tell real easy. This...

I was explaining some changes i had made to Magics program on another thread and thought this was a better place for it. I had originally thought that his program called for the 7.5 band filter but after re reading his program that is what he called for. I must have changed that early on and...

I called a friend this morning that knows just about everyone around this area to get some info on the boy whos ring i found. He was working when i called so i left a message. I'm back at the park metal detecting this evening and i had took magics program and made a few tweaks and slowed my...

Since i am on vacation this week i hit the park about 9:30 this morning. After school is out the park here has lots of people at all times of the day pretty much any day of the week. The pool has a lot to do with that. Started out detecting around the basketball court. I usually avoid this area...

When i was detecting yesterday afternoon i took a few pictures of the park i hunt. As far as i know the building has been there since the very early 1900's and the stone wall you see in the picture has three sections and is 100 to 150 yards long. I know i hunt it alot but as you can see from...

The last few times I have went out i have taken the MXT. I love the V3i but something has been nagging at me that there is shallow stuff i'm missing. :thinkingabout: I have a 5.3 coil for trashy areas and even though it is not v rated it works well on the V3i as long as i keep the sensitivity...

I got some change back today and got a 2010 dime and it looked like it had been in circulation for 20 years. They sure don't make them like the used to. :rolleyes: I think the rough Rosevelt silver i dug last month was in better shape and it was not real good. :hairpulling:

I went out today with the mixed mode again. I got 19 more coins from the same spots i've been hitting. All of these coins were shallow, none were more then 3 1/2 deep I got 4 quarters, 12 pennies 1 nickel and 2 dimes. The one thing i've noticed is that i'm digging coins that share a hole with...

Went out in the yard for a little hunt running the mixed mode and got a dime at 4 with a nail on the other side of the hole at the same 4. That was pretty cool. Got a few nails that rang up on discriminate mode, the vdi was scatterd all over the place so i figured it was junk beings they we not...

It's been raining here for the last three days so i've been doing some reading on the V3i. I have been wanting to do a couple of things, one is to either use mixed mode or mixed mode stereo and learn to utilize polar plot the best i can. I loaded two different programs. One uses mixed mode and...

Since the Banner was added, the top of my wish list is to find something worthy enough to be put there. Way to go on the addition of the banner and Detectorist of the month idea. Being recognized by this group of people is truely an honor. :clapping:

Went back to the park today and managed another Mercury dime. 3rd one from this hunted out park. It's in the worst shape of any i've found but silver is silver and i'll take it.

I worked overtime today. >{ But afterwards went back to the park to see if the correlate program could find some more goodies. I just started digging all pulltab signals and was expecting pulltabs. lol I dug 13 coins 21 Pulltabs and 25 pieces of aluminum cans. I decided to hit the tot lot before...

Got out to the old park for a few more hours today. Been taking it a little slower lately and digging the bouncy signals on the V3i. The other day I got a silver ring and a Buffalo Only ended up with 11 coins today but did manage to get another Indian head with a nice readable date. This is the...

I have been trying to figure why The V hasn't been hitting any gold for me yet. My style of hunting and places that i hunt have made me pretty much give up on the bouncy pulltab signals. I still dig solid numbers or ones that don't bounce much. In the past i have dug hundreds of pull tabs to...

Thursday after 5 hour Mushroom hunt I got home ate some lunch and went back to the park to see what it still held there for me. I have been wondering why my gold ring count is so low. I looked through some rings that i have found and i have a kids ring that appears to be gold but the markings...

Well i went out Wednesday and got some more Mushrooms, the total for the day was 170. Thursday I went out and got 105 more. Sorry about no pictures but somehow when i was loading them from my phone to my computer i lost them all. Yes this was after i saved them to the computer and deleted them...

I am still learning functions of the V3i and have more questions. Modulation- Will turning this off make deeper targets sound off louder? What are the advatages and disadvantages of running this off or on and what do the settings represent as far as the target goes? Polar Plot- I messed with...
