Still finding the goods

tnt-k9 · Jan 17, 2013

My favorite machine, the Sea Hunter MKII has been acting up lately. It started out with signals sounding static, then I'd get a good signal only for it to turn REALLY faint. This morning I go out and every signal is faint then some of them would pop like normal. Even running it over the scoop the signal would be faint. Well long story short, I was able to find and recover the 8 gram 14K white gold ring seen below. I called Garrett's and they are pretty sure the headphones need replaced. So I guess I'll order some new head phones and until then use the back up Excal II. Thanks for looking and good luck out there!

Good luck with the new phones. Guess you got the battery adapter for the excal. Sweet ring.

I never did get the adapter. Just going to use akaline for now. I pulled the rechargeable battery pack out of it's pod and was using it once in awhile but I think it's dead. Last about 3 hours. Same for my rechargeables for the SeaHunter. I have to decide which recargable batteries I'm going to buy and when. The wife is wavering whether to stay an extra year or head north. If we're northbound I have to know where we're goin before I invest too much coinage.

Take care and good luck out there!
