Re: Equinox - 2 years ago

No surprise that a company hypes any new product line that it markets. I always considered the Equinox was built to compete with the ATP, not to outhunt the more expensive machines.

Re: Gold - 2 years ago

Large explosions and fires in the middle east always seem to have the effect of higher gold prices. For a while at least.

Re: How long until silver coins are out of reach? - 2 years ago

As you can see by the various answers, the answer to the OP is It Depends. On that site's particular soil/geology. Lose a coin over a large rock and itll be there for manay many generations. Also rem that earth moving by humans isnt all bad. Some of my best silver finds have come from fill dirt.

Re: Fisher Labs shout out - 2 years ago

Always good read about good customer service these days. Kudos to Fischer Labs! (did they say what was wrong with it?)

Re: Pull the trigger on a CTX 3030 or..... - 2 years ago

The way Minelab hypes stuff pre-release, I seriously doubt anything is in the near future.

Re: Funny Thing Happened With 2 FBS Minelab Machines - 2 years ago

Did you swing the Safari over silver? Once you hear that sound, you are spoiled. I run a CTX and still miss that flutey song.

Re: Garrett Announces they will acquire Whites Electronics - 2 years ago

Any rumors as to the price paid? That might be a clue as to what Whites tech/patents/research is/was worth.

Re: How do you feel, is there a need for a Classified site? - 2 years ago

I was going to sell my Safari and some accessories on ebay then they started that mandatory BS tax stuff. I hope beyond hope that it kills them. So yeah, I'd frequent your site, Sven. Happy to pay a sales commission to a site by a fellow detectorist.

I use DuckDuckGo + a VPN + a MAC randomizer. Only the NSA knows my favorite brand of TP.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmm.......... seems like he wont need any help proving fraud, eh? Or allowing illegals to vote like the last time around?

Re: USPS is Marginal At Best for MD Shipping - 3 years ago

In my small town PO, they announced about the end of july that lobby hours were going to be cut back. When asked why, they said that it was orders from the top levels and that it wasnt arguable. Maybe the middle distribution parts of the USPS have received similar orders? That said my small packages of things i have ordered have been arriving on time, with about 1/3 earlier than expected.

Re: New Book! Skill-Building with the Minelab Equinox Series Metal Detectors - 3 years ago

Folks, realize that not everyone is as smart as you are. There are lots of people for whom the Eq is their first machine. No shame in reading a book to learn.

Re: Looks like Whites is going down... - 3 years ago

"I know more than you do because i have been in the hobby longer". No, that isnt necessarily true and if you think that, it most probably isnt true in your case. Years dont make Wisdom, years make Age.

Re: Looks like Whites is going down... - 3 years ago

Coinmaster 6000. One of my first machines. A friend still has it and uses it. Sad announcement, but not unexpected. Sure, counterfeits hurt and are a part of the reason, but skimping on research/development is a losing path in the long run.

RIP Des. You impacted many lives for the better. You are missed.

Re: THE END GAME? - 3 years ago

Know that vaccines can be done fairly quickly, even mass doses. What takes a long time is the trials/approval and gov insistence that the faster methods of production not be used for US products. Hopefully, this wont be the case with Wuhan. 18 months of crippled economy will radically transform this country..... in many ways.

Re: What will you do differently? - 3 years ago

Investing in myself more. I have greatly increased my exercise regime and plan to continue it as long as I am physically able to.

Re: Anyone else notice this? - 3 years ago

I guess I never thought those signals would extend very far. I mean, heck, I can barely hit my router at the other end of the house!

Re: Anyone else notice this? - 3 years ago

So what are the sources that aren't operating now? School wifi? Local radio signals?

Re: THE END GAME? - 3 years ago

They're just pushing us now to see how much more that they can get away with. I am Amazed at how well the media has managed to stampede the sheep. I hope the bas-turds are happy with the damage they are doing to the economy.
