BH QD II First Finds

[OPUS1]

Tried it out yesterday in my back yard, nothing more than nails and bottlecaps from the construction crew. I live in a brand new development. I did as instructed with different coins, foil ect to hear the different sounds. The BH QDII picked up nails about 12". Practicing the different sounds and settings bearied my own old coins. Pretty dam cool!! Can't wait to go out to a public park/tot lot.

I will post my first earnings this weekend.

PS: I need suggestions on a decent set of headphones!!

Thanks OPUS1

I got mine at the local Walmart store. I went in and found a pair that cost around $40 and that what i been using. get the kind that will cover your whole ear. Try them on make sure the are comforble. I don't think you need ot spend lots of money on a pair to find deep coins. I have found pennies 10 to 1 inches deep. So good luck and keep up posted...Matt

It's fun learning a new machine, and I'm about due to have a little fun myself this year.
For headphones you might like the Jolly Rogers. You can find them for around 70.00 online
and I think they have a lifetime warranty. Just make sure they can cover the whole frequency
that your detector puts out.

I had a pair for one day and they were the most comfortable I've ever worn, the only problem
was that they weren't compatible with my 1266. I'll probably end up with a pair of Killer B's
or Ratphones. I wouldn't skimp on them because they're the most important link to what's in the ground.

Have a good time!
Mike

Make sure you pick up the "garbage" and throw away. Next time it'll be that much easier to possibly locate something good.

Radio Shack coiled cord with in-line volume control $24 bucks --works great. Make sure you get adapter to match your detector connection. About $2.
