Starting out in Milwaukee

[Stewie53110]

I'm just starting out here in Milwaukee. Anyone have any good places to start out? I went to part of a beach in South Milwaukee and found nothing but aluminum cans and pieces of steel from the old wall. Just trying to learn a good technique but I'd like to find something to get me excited.

Well Stewie53110, go outside where you have a good view of the landscape. Turn around in a full circle paying attention to where the tallest and largest trees are. Remember where they were and go there. That should be the oldest part of town near your spot and I would start there. Depending on your machine the power lines may give your machine fits, corona effect from the power lines in an older neighborhood. Welcome to Tnet and remember to enjoy your time out detecting regardless of what you do or don't find. Be sure to cut clean plugs and always cover your holes so your work can not be seen. I wish you good success.............................63bkpkr
