Tell your friend the overloading is actually "his friend" just raise the coil a couple of inches and see if it ID's. If it is all over the place he doesn't need to dig it. It's a slight adaptation we have to make. I love it because I dig way less trash.............

Gents it looks like the machine will be the same build quality as the CoRe also. There's no wobble in the shaft on it not a smidgen, just like a one piece shaft. Great lookin machine! If the performance follows suit as they promise it will be killer. I want some specs on it soon!!!!!

I'm impressed, as close to using a Sunray probe in a portable as you get. Just wave out over the dirt until you get a signal then just touch the button as you close in until you are at the target. Very easy and quick to have what you dug in your hands.

Wheats, Merc, a shot 22 wheatie, a rolled flat coin, train track style, some zincs, dime, a silver bracelet at seven inches and an expanded bullet. Hunting the trash with the small coil. Check out the big chunk of glass..........

I've got the cover on it and got rained on several times today with no problem. That corn crib looking think is across the street in middle Georgia ozzie. That was my first experience with the Nokta digging a bunch of clad out of ferrous material in front of that structure.

I've ran the stock coil for about 3 hrs on a old home lot I had ran the small coil over. Haven't thought about it but I did get another hand full of coins just trying it out. It hits very hard and separates real well in what most would call heavy ferrous metal. I kid you not if anyone wants to get they brain unraveled come hunt with us for one day. Actually the lot I ran the stock coil

I feel very sure Nokta will identify the stock without the membrane switches. then it might be as simple as changing out a faceplate and just plugging the new in possibly. I've got my CoRe and will just wait this one out. It makes ya'll wonder because of all the bait and switch FT has put some of you through is the reason. I'm slap tickled to death with an up front company that wil

It's performance and customer service that sets a company apart. It wouldn't matter if it was a pine limb that unlocked the hidden stuff in the earth we all crave. If it worked and got you what you wanted and the company backed you and their product up 101% I'd have a pine limb, you would too. As these machines slowly make their way into our market the light will come on I'm s

Frank if they have something better than the CoRe it'll stand the detecting world on it's heels. I've never ran anything that picks a place apart like this machine and I'm still learning it for sure. You can ask for an infinitely adjustable detector like the Deus but it speaks volumes just being able to turn one on, GB, select the mode and tear someplace apart that has been de

That is great Moe at Detector Electronics is one of the best customer service people on the planet. None of us should have any qualms with him at the helm. That's great news! XP and Nokta under the same roof cool.

Where we hunt, 3 of us, we call ourselves the Ghetto Diggers. We've hunted it a lot off and on depending on houses being torn down and house lot's being scraped of the top layer of trash and dirt. Us ghetto diggers run very sophisticated high end machines so to speak when we hunt. We run into a man we've seen detecting several times. I hunted with him a few times when we end up at

Actually the soil conditions are from one spectrum to the other. From loamy to red clay mixed all together. Here it's not about the soil conditions it's about all the metal trash in the dirt. I'm sure not imaginable to most detectorists. I need to get Keith down here and let him get some of this detecting LOL. Hunting old house lot's in our area is an all together different an

Hunting in LOT's of human trash, ie; can slaw, Nokta hands down for me. Hunting in iron for, mind you, conductive signals, Deus and Nokta. One thing the CoRe excels at by a long shot is target ID.

Steve you said it all. I just turn it on, GB, and switch to DI3 and hunt. Ridiculously easy and works wonderfully. I absolutely love the feel of the detector and care not to even look at the side display. The machine is a sound giant to me in DI3 it's all about the ears then check out the "most accurate TID" I've ever laid my eye's on when you hear the right sound.

Surely some more have something they want to trade, come on gents! Look in those corners and closets, one man's trash is another man's treasure.

Yep just list it in the official online swap/trade thread, the other thread, and see what bites you get. You can do your bartering through that thread also, it will be fun to track the trades.... addresses and or phone numbers really should be in pm not unless you want the whole world to see your particulars.
