I'm sure by now your detector has arrived and you've had a chance to check it out. Could you please give us a review of your impressions and test results you found. The specs on it sound good and I'm sure there are others, like myself, that would be interested in your findings. Thanks
hi all! ive decided to get into the metal decting again.(not that i ever was except when i was 15 yrs old i had a $50 radio shack detector.i found a $3000 wedding ring under my great grandmas wooden porch.turned out to be my uncles wedding ring and he took it from me,sold it to the pawn shop and drank it away without even a" thank you"he has been devorced for years before i found it.)ok,back to the main subject....i bought a treasure hunter xj9-3050 and i was wondering if anyone here has used one,and if it is a good one to start out with? it has a 32bit prosessor chip and the extra large coil.any advice or info on this subject would be helpful.i live in northern michigan and am starting to do some research about my area.there are some 100+year old abandoned logging camps with 100 year old apple trees all around where they used to set up camp and get lit after a hard days work.my leads are from a old timer that lives nearby and he is 90 years old.i think this would be a good place to start,since you cannot see any apple trees from the little dirt trail that goes past it and its deep in the forest so hopefully it hasnt been hit by another people with the same idea.
I'm with you too. I started with a detector from "Treasure Cove" that was a step down from the one you're getting. It paid for itself in 3 months and I turned around and sold it for as much as I'd paid for it.
So - I doubled my money in one season and had a barrel of fun doing it..
I never had a lick of trouble with that detector, other than the ridicule I heard on these boards. I bought an ace 250, sold it after one year. Bought the AT Pro, but it's currently on it's way to Texas for diagnosis and repair. I wish I had my Treasure Cove back right now.
Go dig up some good stuff and post it in Today's Finds. I wish I would have posted some of mine but I was intimidated by all the trash talk here.
