1850's Housesite

Got out trying to redeem myself after Nate (dirtdigger1581) put the pounding on me at the coloinal church site :icon_scratch:

This was a recon mission in search of Civil War activity in the area. To me, this is just standard house site stuff. I would consider myself more of a civil war relic hunter that likes the deep woods and swamps. But, this area has not been hit hard and we have lots of leads and research to back it up. The great thing is we have been granted permission to hunt over 500 plus acres to search for it. Three pre civil war homes and one colonial home on the land granted to hunt. So I think we will be pulling relics from these fields. This was a short hunt (2 hours).

Please visit my youtube page---wesnvirginia---to view my relic hunts in Virginia.

Thanks!

Wes

You will be hunting right there with us. My cell phone MIA if you have been trying to call? I went to D.C. to watch my beloved EAGLES whip the Skins :hello2: I have not been able to find it since and my cousin has not gotten back to me since we returned :icon_scratch: Email me at sonscv2003@yahoo.com to set up some dates. Thanks Eric!

Re: 1850's Housesite

I always look for new videos from you. Keep em coming :headbang:
 

Re: 1850's Housesite

Looks like your off to a great start at that site. Good luck.
 

Re: 1850's Housesite

That site looks like it might have some potential Wes, good luck buddy and a good day's finds :wink: :icon_thumleft:
 

Re: 1850's Housesite

Hey Wes, did you get that MXT figured out yet?
 

Re: 1850's Housesite

Homesites are where the good sutffs at these days. I'm sure you'll pull something good out of there.
 

Re: 1850's Housesite

No, I have not figured that MXT Pro out yet. Just doesn't make sense to me. Not a lot of controls or tweaking to do on it. Just scares me that the depth is just not there. I believe that the MXT Pro makes more noise than my T2 SE. The difference, the T2 SE find relics and the MXT Pro has not!

Look for my reply tomorrow Rich about your T2. Thanks!

Did you try cranking the gain up? Run it as hot as you can, if the ground will allow it.
