I splashed out on some alcohol today and think this latest discovery will be my favourite for a long time to come. It's Somersby's Blackberry Cider. Just the right amount of sweetness for me and not sickly at all like some of the other stuff you can buy. Too mor-ish. I'm happy I got a...

Hi all, Was out around Dunolly today. Detector (MXT) kept sounding on one particular spot and I spent an hour or more digging and waving the detector over the dirt I took out but still didn't get down to the target. Still sounding but had to leave it, 8.( relo's restless to get going so I had...

Well I've made it to the GT and would like to know what I shouldn't miss seeing or visiting. Any recommendations guys?

Hi all, I'd like to know if what I'd like to do is possible. Having strong woman's intuition I'd like to "pin point" a spot on a (hard copy) map before I leave on my detecting adventure, and then somehow be able to put that into my gps car thingy so it can get me to the exact spot driving, and...

I can't seem to find a NSW store who stocks White's detectors. I've done a search on the forum with no results and I've searched for a store on White's site but still came up with nothing. Seems as if it doesn't recognize Australian postcodes? I'm looking to buy a second hand SPP but would...

I've just been to ebay looking for a detector and came across a list of theirs for "The Top 5 Metal Detectors. Even though I still consider myself a learner someone needs to set the record straight in the "comments" section. (If you think it's worthwhile). I'm surprised there are not more...

I'm curious if anyone has been questioned by rangers while they've been out detecting for gold? Would love to hear your stories.

I've been reading heaps of posts about the varying depths that gold is found - surface, shallow and deep but would like clarification on what depths these actually are. And also with your measurements are you removing sticks, bark and leaves from the area before you estimate the depth? Thanks!

I read lots of talk about finding small nuggets (lucky you!) but I've not found a post about finding large nuggets. What would a detector read if you came across a hand sized nugget or the mother lode if you had your detector settings on "to find gold"? Would it come up as a big piece of iron...

Hi everyone, I've just joined the forum and would like to know which second hand detector you would recommend for a petite woman. I'd like to detect for gold in Ballarat &/or Bendigo, VIC area and in an area around Crookwell (thereabouts) and eventually Bathurst, NSW. I would like a detector...

Hi everyone, I have no idea why, but I'm returning to detecting. I did a bit back in the 80's and have suddenly decided to go on holiday in a few months to Ballarat, VIC and do a gold prospecting day tour. Hopefully I'll have found a good second hand detector to buy before I go. Have read heaps...
