Hi,
I just came across this forum. From the little amount of reading I have picked up a lot. Thank you.
I bought my V3 a year ago. I had a DFX and was using that well. I just never seemed to be able to get the V3 to find anything below a couple inches and a had few other problems. After a couple months I sent it in and it was reprogramed to v1.3. Things were slightly better and I thought it was me. I only found coins in the first 1-2. I had problems trying to do a manual balance- it just seemed to pinpoint.
The end of last summer when I was at the beach I saw a quarter on the ground as the coil passed over it- not a sound:huh: From there I tried many things (including restoring all programs back to factory). A nickle 2 in the sand sounded like a bottle cap. I still could not get it to ground balance manually.
I sent it in. Sweet home said, a reset didn't help, reprogramming didn't work and they were going to replace the PCB. I called and spoke to them, They are the best company with the best service. Last week I received a brand new V3i
I was able to find a quarter at about 8 the first time out at the beach So hopfully things will get better
I am going to the beach again this weekend.
So now I am reading all I can and was wondering if I can get a copy of The book of Jack
Thanks
Jon
