A new guy's digging question
I recently bought a low end Radio Shack detector, ($39.95) for my grandson's visits.
We took it out in the backyard, found 37 cents, a couple wheat pennies and an old Tootsietoy toy car, and I was hooked! By the way, this Radio Shack model found these objects at a minimum of 3-4 inches, so from the limited amount I have read recently I would say it is an excellent unit for the price.
Anyhow, found out a permit was required to hunt the local city parks, got one and read the do's and dont's associated with it.
"No trowels, shovels, knives. Probes must be less than 3/8th's inch dia.. Sod may NOT be lifted in any manner".
My question is, how does a person get what he finds, out of the ground??
I'm sure this has covered in this forum before but have been unable to find a post on it, so forgive me for taking up space with what is probably a stupid question.
Thanks!
