Old MD'er new to this forum

I found this site by accident about four months ago and have been lurking ever since. This site has rekindled my interest in MD'ing. I bought my first machine in the early 70's, a Fisher 1220 X, and really worked it for several years. Work, family and kids put me on hold until about ten years ago when I bought a CZ-7a which I worked but was never really satisfied with the results (too much digging for naught,pennies and stuff) and my interest fell off. I ran into Juanmoretime on this site and he encouraged me to swing (the MD) and post...thank you Juan. With that advice, I worked a 1905 home site and came away with two wheat's and twelve cents in modern...just couldn't post that...there is more there. I have decided to up the ante and get back in the action, today I have ordered a Whites V3 which I hope will rejuvenate my dirt fishing. There is a heap of history to dig here in Auburn Alabama area...hope I can report some.

Re: Old MD'er new to this forum

Thanks for your warm welcome Mike. I'll have to find my "box of stuff" to post. I had rather start anew with this new machine, a new beginning in my MD future.

Welcome! I also had to put my detecting on hold. I hunted in the early 80's and about 3 years ago started again. Hope to see some goodies come out of Auburn for you!
