Barber * Merc's * Rosie * Indians

[E-Trac-Ohio]

A few days ago I went back to a very old, small abandoned Church that I hunted over 10 years ago.
Well ... the Church was gone - the neighbor told me it was torn down 6 or 7 years ago - junk metal everywhere !
Grid searched the area for over 3 hours with the Deus 2 using Gary's "Tekkna" program.

Why did you stop 10 years ago? You had left much behind and I'm willing to bet there's more there yet!

thats what i call a good day

I'd say it was worth the return trip ! Great finds.

I didn't go back to this Church site for a few reasons.
It's very far from where I live - it was Winter and snowing and when I hunted there years ago I was using my E-Trac.
The E-Trac is a fantastic machine but they have very slow processors.
The Deus 1 & 2 have lightning fast recovery speeds in a iron infested areas - that's why I did so well on this hunt.
And yes, I think will go back again just to make sure I didn't miss anything.

Great job re-hunting that site. Its always quite rewarding when you can squeeze a few more coins out of an old favorite spot.

I agree - "Tekkna" is a fantastic program in a Iron infested site.
I'll be going back to as many of my old junk metal sites as possible.
"Tekkna" also hits deep on cleaner ground - I dug a Miner's Tag last week that was a measured - 9 1/2" down.
I haven't tried the "Legacy" program but I've heard a lot of good things about it.

I was playing in a blacksmithing site yesterday. Went from 0-70 discrimination on the program. Getting a single nonferrous target there is a good play.

Sorry, I had missed the detail about the program in your original post. While I believe the program was a contributing factor to your amazing hunt, I'm also a firm believer that a site is just never hunted out. Go back with any detector - there's more to be found! Being a distance from the house does make it tough though. Thanks for sharing!

Well, I just did do a return hunt.
Hunted the same area again, really slow and from a different direction.
Found nothing at all - the good news I feel fairly confident I got everything or close to it on the first hunt.
