    SDC2300 ISSUE

    Okay all, I got my detector back from Minelab and they just switched the PCB over for a brand new one as it is more cost effective that way. Good service and i'm pleased to report it works fine. 4 hours detecting for 4 bits of gold at just on 0.7grams.

    SDC2300 ISSUE

    Yeah no worries lee, My detector has obviously a problem with the PCB and it operates instead of being on 1 LED lit when motionless , it runs wobbly in between 2, 3 and 4. It does not respond to auto tuning, new batteries, and still gets cranky on even the lowest sensitivity setting of 1. The...

    SDC2300 ISSUE

    Willo, I've just sent mine in for an unrelated problem. I do know that there is currently skeleton staffing and a 3 week turnaround is likely. (Its re portably usually 1 week) If I were you, I would keep using it for another 3 weeks before sending it in, as the weather is as good as it gets at...

    ⭐ Gold Detecting Show'n Tell

    I just got back from Tibooburra and spent some time with Steve and Mrs Steve. These guys are the friendliest people and everyone tends to gravitate towards them due to their hospitality and humour! I ended up catching up with him one day with some non detecting friends and he had them digging...

    What is the biggest nugget you have detected ???

    The amount of bird shot included in that total is amazing from day to day. My worst total was well over 130 holes dug for 1 piece of gold weighing 0.2 grams. My best ratio was 20 pieces of gold at 4.8 grams with 3 pieces of lead and no junk. Stuff that dreams are made of really.

    What is the biggest nugget you have detected ???

    I found my biggest piece yesterday at 3.3 grams with the sdc 2300. Before that it was a piece of 0.8grams which I thought was pretty big. My total finds since a year of prospecting is 82 pieces for 16 grams. Not very impressive but great fun.

    Aftermarket SD battery connecter?

    This is what my 2100 came with as well. It's standard from minelab . I think. I converted my machine to lithium ion via a dc to dc Voltage regulator set to 7.3 volts. The box I made also to amplify the signal to run an external speaker. In my opinion the standard Setup is lousy and needs...

    what's your best tally for the day?

    My best was 3 days straight where I found $46 on day 1, day 2 $51 and day 3 was $88. all $184 in roughly 8 hours of swinging over 3 days. Id be interested in hearing from shane here also using a 705 but the advantage of cashed up tourists who get drunk and lose money in Darwin.
