House foundation with Idaho Hunter & my backup machine

My Quantum is in the shop, my F70 was sent back on Friday, my Compass is acting strange.......so I just got my Radio Shack 3300 back from a friend who has had it for almost 4 years. When I 1st got it I took it out & learned it, found some rings & lots of clad, great machine for the $100 I paid for it. So Me & Kent (Idaho Hunter) went to a property where the house has been torn down & only the foundation remains & the yard is overgrown. We found a lot of cars, Kent dug up a cool WW2 plane with the prop still intact. We both found cheap rings but y'all know what I say.........a ring is a ring! The white ball is an old gear shift knob! I started out feeling quite inadaquate using the 3300, Im used to a "higher end" machine but I got to tell you this thing really did very well! I think I'll keep it in the 'Burban as a cherished backup when I get my other machines back.

Great outing Mighty Man! Just got back from CTH3 and your donated digging tools were a great hit on the prize list. Thanks again. I gave my RS 3000 to a little guy who needed a detector. I saw him at the CTH3 and he was using another machine. So I asked him where the 3000 was. He said it was broken. I said," How the heck did it get broken"? and he replied,"The batteries ran down"! I got a good laugh out of that. But I think that little machine is pretty darn good considering I got mine for a hundred bucks when they were on sale at RS. They run over $300 now I was told. Anyway, sorry you couldn't join us at CTH3 as we really missed you. Monty

Thank you Monty, giving your machine to a kid is a great gesture on your part!
Me & the Queen have talked about it & we would really love to make the the next hunt! Im still waiting for the hundreds of great pics to start filtering in & have struck deals with several people to post pics of Gypsy!!! These deals cost me a bit but I did it for the gentlemen of TN!!!
Monty, I hope to meet you at the next hunt! 8)
