    NOX on NO2

    The NOX was in the standard Park 1 mode. After pinpointing a target I did reverse the process and sweep it out of pinpoint. Occasionally Id get a very quiet tone and without a TID registering. Targets were singular and not hidden. Found a few things like wire, beaver tails, coins and general...

    NOX on NO2

    NOX on NO2

    After having the 800 for a couple of weeks and not giving the 6 coil much attention it was time to strap it on.

    Minelab Equinox 800 tips and questions

    Covering all the bases. After a couple of days owning this machine its turned up loads of finds with many very small and quite deep. No yellow yet but only spent a couple of hours in the hills chasing it. Not fair to judge yet on that type of non-ferrous.

    Minelab Equinox tips and questions

    Minelab Equinox In-Awe-Gural Day. The Better 1/2 unboxed her new toy yesterday and it was christened today at a local beach. You may be wondering why Im giving my take on its performance. Its because I was a good boy and she let me have a turn. It did cost me lunch though. Right from the outset...

    GPS Mapping/Wapoints - Garmin

    Magellan once had maps which included gold fossicking points of interest. I was a Magellan dealer up until I encountered an attitude problem with their Australian CEO around the time GST came in.
