First hunt with the E-TRAC

[Captain Caveman]

I got my E-TRAC in on Tuesday (Thanks again Tedyoh!), but wasn't able to take it out until today. After work I took it to a spot close to my house that I've hit with the F75 and Tejon already. I didn't find a ton, but I'm happy to say that I got silver on my maiden voyage with the E-TRAC! So anyway, here are my finds, a silver plated spoon, 3 quarters, 5 pennies, a 1942 Wheat and a 1943d Mercury.

You certainly are building an arsenal. Congrats on pulling a Merc on the E Trac's inaugural hunt.

Thanks. Yes, I call myself a detector collector now (and so does my wife ).

Indeed it did scream at me. I really had no doubt it was a silver before I dug just from watching some youtube videos on the E-TRAC.

I use the CZ20 in water. I use the F44 if its raining, has recently rained, and sometimes in parks where I lose nothing from the F75. I use the Tejon in cleaner fields and to go behind the F75 at times. I use the F75 as my main machine. Going forward, I will use the F75 to hit bigger permissions for the first time, and the E-TRAC to hit smaller permissions and to break down bigger permissions on return trips. For common places that I hit a lot, I just take whichever detector tickles my fancy at the time. The decision will become harder as my detector collection grows.

Oh yeah, forgot the GoFind 60. I keep this guy in my car so that I'm never without a detector. I bought it so that if I saw a spot I wanted to scan, but couldn't make it back to the house, I would be able to swing. However, it's turned more into the detector I use when I notice a park empty at lunch or on my way home from work.

Well you did a LOT better than I did the first time out with it, I managed one square nail!

Glad to see it's working out for you! Good Luck with it!

The Etrac is an amazing machine, it's awesome at finding the goodies once you understand it! GL & HH
