Re: USPS is Marginal At Best for MD Shipping - 1 year ago
Here's a good one. I'm doing a detector trade with a dealer in Tennessee. He sent the detector off on MONDAY. I wasn't able to send mine off until Wednesday. Mine was scheduled for delivery, on Saturday, to Tennessee from Virginia, which arrived TODAY. Good job there. But here's the kicker... I'm STILL waiting for the other detector to be delivered here. NOT a good job tby hanoverdigger - Thomas Dankowski Metal Detecting Forum

Re: FedEx - 3 years ago
I had a package from USPS that arrived at the main distribution center in Richmond Va., I'm in Ashland,Va....16 miles from there. Then shipped off to Maryland, then to Dulles,Va....back to the main distribution center in Richmond, then to a Post office in a different county. It finally made it! Took 4 days with 2 day priority mail.by hanoverdigger - Thomas Dankowski Metal Detecting Forum
Re: Nautilus Detector - 3 years ago
I still get out with mine from time to time. Took it out last year and found a nice vest sized ball button and just a few years ago I run upon 8 Indians in one spot....1864 thru 1907. Had Wayne @ Nautilus do the rod modification and new coil.by hanoverdigger - Thomas Dankowski Metal Detecting Forum
Re: What is/was your favorite Tesoro? - 3 years ago
I've owned only one Tesoro and it was the Tejon. It did well for the time I had it. Many bullets, a few buttons. Not too shabby for a beep and dig detector. Deepest find was a scabbard tip at least the length of the old army entrenching shovel at a Confederate trench.by hanoverdigger - Thomas Dankowski Metal Detecting Forum
Re: Which brand of pinpointer do you use? - 3 years ago
I use the Garrett ZLynk PP. Pairs up nicely with the headphones, and along with the transmitter, I can now use this setup with my Anfibio Multi.by hanoverdigger - Thomas Dankowski Metal Detecting Forum
Re: My new "King of the Hill" Nokta Anfibio. - 3 years ago
Some good info. Still waiting to get get out with mine. Waiting for deer season to wrap up here in Va., hopefully this Sunday. I've spent a lot of time reading the manual and just tinkering with the settings. I've added a new wireless headphone system also. The stock headphones are ok, but I like the full, over the ear coverage these offer. Good luck hunting.by hanoverdigger - Thomas Dankowski Metal Detecting Forum
Re: What was the first detector that you purchased? - 3 years ago
Nautilus LF... green box, horseshoe handle. Still have it but retired. Found my first US boxplate with it.by hanoverdigger - Thomas Dankowski Metal Detecting Forum
Re: Loosing relic sites - 3 years ago
Nice stuff Bill...We lost two spots last year. One was the landowner was up in age and no longer at her home (we always knock and ask for permission first) Possibly in an assisted living facility (I hope!) Other was due to trespassing relic hunters (we ALWAYS had permission) Good news though...26 acres coming up right next to the Wilderness Battlefield after deer season. Another 185 acres in Caroby hanoverdigger - Thomas Dankowski Metal Detecting Forum
Re: Retirement - 3 years ago
Retired at 62...after crawling under houses for a living, (rough-in plumber) for 35+ years, it was time for my back to mend somewhat. Seemed to help...now I can dig without the pain!by hanoverdigger - Thomas Dankowski Metal Detecting Forum

Re: Someone looking for Nox 800 here's one - 4 years ago
eBay says item no longer available. I wonder if he sold it? He had it for sale on Findmall at the same price. Post was taken down after getting bashed for such a high price.by hanoverdigger - Thomas Dankowski Metal Detecting Forum

Re: I'm a Hoarder of Detectors. What to do? - 4 years ago
In my particular spot for hunting, I've used several "high end" detectors. Going back in with the Nautilus 2b one day, I found 8 IH pennies some bullets and other stuff. Best coin day ever!by hanoverdigger - Thomas Dankowski Metal Detecting Forum
Re: Beep and dig machines - 4 years ago
Can't go wrong with this setup. Nautilus 2b with White's rod conversion, and the newer black coil. Not so heavy and can hunt all day.by hanoverdigger - Thomas Dankowski Metal Detecting Forum
