Yesterday's Finds.

This is my third time out with the CTX and I can't tell you how many times I was shaking my head in awe with this machine. It took me 11 months to finally decide to drop the hammer and get one. I'm sorry I waited so long. This park where I hunted doesn't give up the old stuff, but the coins are deep with lots of iron and pulltabs. The first deep signal of the day came in at 8" on the meter, after sticking my Periscope in the ground I made contact at 9" It was giving a high tone with numbers where silver hits. The first coin out was a nickle, no way that gave that kind of tone or reading, I'm thinking I've got silver with a nickle. Turns out I had a mini spill with the nickle and 2 wheats. I had iron grunts on both sides of the coins, a warm fuzzy feeling moment :) All the other targets came in at 7-8" which is average at this spot. I am amazed at how well this machine can separate targets with high tones and a good cursor reading with the stock coil. I thought the E-trac had the market cornered on iding deep signals, I'm glad I was wrong. I'm more than happy with my new toy!! Thanks for looking.

Just think another 8,928.5 hunts like today's the CTX will have paid for itself. All kidding aside, congrats on getting a detector that you enjoy and one that breaths life back into previously hunted sites. Sounds like you are really enjoying the CTX.

Hey Loco, I'm so far in the hole with my toys I'll never see the end of the tunnel. Good thing it's just a hobby :-)

I don't even want to think about the money I've spent of partying, I bet I could have a few more top of the line machines to stand in the corner :)
