June 14th finds from a park down the road from me.

I walked down to the park at about 8AM with my V3i with the intentions of trying the MXT program from the library on it but it's not near the same as my MXT so I put it back in coin/jewelry mode and shortly after I dug the war nickel, then after finding a little clad I decided I'd try the deep silver program, I balanced it and took no more than a couple steps and bang I had an excellent reading that said 9 inches so I dug a big flap with about a 6 inch clod attached and it was still down there, 2 more scoops and out popped the sterling ring. I've hammered this park for many years and it was in an area I've hunted many times before but never picked it up. It wasn't long after that the battery pack went dead so I headed home for the charger. The V3i uses battery power fast but on the deep silver program it really hogs the battery big time.

When I go back to an area I've hunted I'll try different programs also and still get more finds. Haven't used the DEEP SILVER one very much, great silver ring and other finds. HH DFW

Yes as a matter of fact the spot where I made these finds is where I seen him detecting, I happened to notice there was someone metal detecting there on my way to another spot so I stopped and shot the bull with him for a little while. He has a V3 and I asked him if he had the upgrade and he said no, I recommended it but he seemed happy with the detector the way it is.
