Reaching out to the forum, especially those who have built their own coils for the sovereign/excal detectors. I am interested in building/modifying a few coils for my blue excal in an attempt to customize them for my particular area and gain the best depth and stability. With my research so...

First of all, I have one of these and really like it. My plans are to do some shallow water detecting this coming summer with the CTX 3030. My question is this, does anyone know if Minelab plans on making a submersible pin-pointer any time soon ? Was looking at the the gold digger land and sea...

Looking for an Etrac Control box only. Needs to work. Dont care about shaft, handle, batteries or battery compartment as I will be chopping it up to mod it. Thanks

I took my minelab Excalibur 1000 to the beach and it would not work on the wet sand. All you could hear is the threshold and when the coil touched the wet sand, it would go silent as if there was iron. I placed a quarter at 4 in and it wouldn't pick it up. I adjusted the sensitivity many times...

Hi, I've been looking to buy for a long time a “coiltek UFO mono coil 24 x 12” But I can not find it anywhere, If someone has one used or new in good condition I am very interested in buying it, I offer 500 USD. I leave a photo of this Coil :icon_thumleft:Thanks, Nicko

Well this year's Christmas may not be as much of a surprise as some of the good ones my wife has pulled off in the past. That doesn't mean I'm any less excited. This year I made it no secret that I wanted to upgrade to from the X-terra 305 that I absolutely love since I added the 7.5 KHz NEL...

Hi friends. I recently started using an etrac and love it! The backlight is lackluster and the screen hard to see most of the time. Anyone have a mod or upgrade to fix this problem?

Title says it all. Need a control pod to get one of my babies back operational. Thanks lar

Anyone know where I can pick one up new or used? Thanks, Larry

I was in the market for a new detector and I called Keith and we chatted for probably about 30 mins about my needs and different detectors. I STRONGLY recommend you call him if you're looking for any detector but he will work something special up if you're in the market for a CTX 3030. Probably...

I know this may be a huge shock to some, but I am going to put my beloved CTX up for sale. Zero problems with this detector, but I want to give the new DEUS a run so I need some funds for that. About this detector: Minelab CTX 3030 Just under 3 years old. Warranty expires in December 2016 so...

Minelab customer service is horrible... Anybody else have issues with them? It takes a miracle to get them to answer calls or emails. I've been trying to reach a human at Minelab for a week now.

Check out hunt from yesterday, we are loving the treasure hunting more then gold detecting.

Yesterday evening I managed to get out for a short hunt just before sunset. I was going to hunt around an old church then realized it was Wednesday, which means folks would be at the church. So I thought to myself: The only other thing folks around here seem to take seriously is sports, which...

SUN RAY DTI II meter for Minelab Sov. GT and others. $195. to your door in the lower 48.

Would it be better to buy an older 3030 vs a brand new model and just upgrade the gaskets? I could save almost $1k that way, or are the upgrades and warranty worth that extra money? I have never had a minelab detector before.
