    Hunting with the Simplex

    I went back and dug another load of .22 bullet cases :) But then this delicate little ring came out and kept the hopes up.

    Hunting with the Simplex

    The 50c sized pin thing is cleaning up to be one of my favourite finds. The stone in the middle is like the moon sitting surrounded by little stars, I really like it.

    Hunting with the Simplex

    The hammer/pick combo head I found near the hook (both were near an old digging). The tip of the pick side broke hence they dumped it, wonder what size the nugget was that could break a pick :playful:

    Hunting with the Simplex

    Hi Nenad the latest batches come with 2.77 pre-installed. Might give the update a try, but I do tend to dig all targets anyway so no biggie, I like finding the old iron tools, found a nice hammer/pick near the big hook

    Clearly through-out the ages the spot has been good for hunting

    Hunting with the Simplex

    Gave the Simplex a fair crack by giving it 1st go on a new spot I found, must say I found myself wishing a sniper coil for this machine, Goldfield ground is so scrubby the bigger coil becomes a hindrance. Found some cool stuff though.

    Hunting with the Simplex

    First day out with the new Simplex... quick flick with some old and new coins on the driveway had me settle on Field Mode as a start.

    Minelab Gold Monster 1000 tips and questions

    It has a simple display that swings to the left for iron and to the right for non ferrous items, it basically does work, but going by the experience of users with more time on it than me as you can see above it seems the signal interpretation can be mistaken.
