Hello Everyone here is my question how close do you think the CTX 3030 & E-Trac Fe numbers & Co Numbers are i have done some air test with the ctx 3030 but don't own a E-trac.

So far I can tell the numbers on the CTX are basically identical to the Etrac.

Thanks... Should help.. Aluminum is tricky with the CTX. Lol

They are a little different. Especially the dollar coins.

Yeah I still haven't figured it out, I just can tell what the target is now by the position on the graph, I never pay attention to the numbers.

I'm probably should though.

Those numbers for the CTX appear to be slightly lower than for the E-Trac.

Thanks for the reply's getting better I guess its just takes time pounding the ground have most of the pull tabs figured out now I have to get the roll up balls of tin foil down that stuff I've seen between 12-1 to 15-3 sh?? just drives me crazy Thanks again

I sold my Etrac and got the CTX. It seemed like with the Etrac I could tell clad from silver, the silver dimes were coming in at 12 45. The clads would come in at 12 43 - 12 44. But with the CTX I can't tell the clad from the silver. All the clad is coming in at 12 44 - 12 45. I am wondering if the CTX lacks the ability to tell the difference as the Etrac could. Anyone else see this happening?

 

[dbeach8253]

I would have to say just about my Silver comes in 12-46 13-46

Here's a vid I made that describes how I can tell the difference between silver coins and non-silver coins. This works for me. I have included my setting as well. Please keep in mind that my ground might be very different from your ground and that the settings might have to be tailored to best suit your conditions. Thanks for watching!

Great vid I see that a lot with the ring I find not so much on silver coins i'll have to pay more attention Thanks Dan

If it matters I'm in the Chicago land area

Helpful post.........nice to see the clad versus silver discussion but for me, I have not found a coin, of any type yet......granted I am new to this, perhaps some 20 hours.......but found nice relics of days past......and it is always nice to be outdoors.......
