    WANTED - Drivers for photo scanner.

    Well this could be the result of parts inside the unit particularly the lamp bulb unit. Which can cause film and photos to colour shift, become to dark or lack contrast. It could be something simple like a minor build up of dust particles stuck to the lamp bulb. Or worn out rubber seals in the...

    Did you try compatibility tab on the programs short cut (right click, choose properties, then compatibility tab, choose emulation of Windows eg vista) to force the program when opened to run on that operating system.

    Getting started in gold prospecting

    I found another method for collecting gold specifically with magnetite, it won't work if the gold doesn't have magnetite as gold isn't magnetic. I often go magnet fishing in open mine holes and occasionally pull up gold that the old timer probably dropped while getting in and out of his hole...

    Fine gold flecks in quartz

    Not true. It depends on the brand. My trx can pickup tiny specs in quartz. Its not a loud beeping noise like a coin. But it still beeps on them softly.

    AlgoForce E1500 - NEW PI DETECTOR FROM EX MINELAB ENGINEER

    Will there ever be an audio target/response adjustment tone pitch? Separate enity from the audio threshold tone pitch. I really hate how factories assume the best audio target response based on the preset tone of threshold im using for my hearing. Be nice to have it separated for full user...

    Fine gold flecks in quartz

    Usually can see with a loupe as to if its surface gold or if its intruding back into the rock itself. Also a pin pointer can help, if the rock is noisy all over and won't go quiet it obviously more in the rock. Its ok on quartz rocks, Ironstone rocks can give false noise if loaded with noisy...

    Old Miners Ring

    One of the hall marks will be a number to how many carats it is. Unusual carats seem to be worth more as they aren't used in todays standards. No brass rings ever had hall marks. It would be gold, just tarnished from the earth to look like brass, it needs a good clean, maybe get a jeweller to...

    GPX 5000 set ups

    Although i have been able to pickup 0.02g pieces with my 17x13 coil, sacrificing Rx for higher stablizer on gpx5000 and still can hear deeper targets. Going with a slow pace swing really helps lift a targets response than opposed to fast swinging of coil over ground. I don't really see the point...

    Can someone please help identify this?

    Its pretty easy to lose something. Put something in coats top pocket and forgot it was there (especially if having strokes of good luck) later lean over to pickup camping wood and it fell out. I found it later with flash light but back then they had candle light. Clothes get worn holes in them...
