    HEMA HN7 GPS

    Ah ok 2 things I'm doing differently, didn't have files in same folder. And so ozi saves to .map but needs to converted again to .ozf4 so ozi explor and hn7 can read properly?

    Somebody doesn't like prospectors !

    To be honest even though this trap setting is not the right way of going about it, fact is this was prob started from fossickers trespassing first, the cops cant keep going to his place every day of the week....if you keep kicking the dog it will bite! Somebody will get justice eventually

    Vehicle bogged, anyone tried this?

    Other tip a mates used, if you drown a motor in a creek or bog hole, and its not safe to start your going to pull the plugs anyway, and you dont have a winch, is drive it out on the starter motor with no plugs in

    metal detecting and me

    I think many people try and jam so much in life to the point of stress. Maybe it's the concentration on the tone, you block everything out to listen to a very simple tone, shuting down a lot of senses, I find this relaxing too. And occasionally get a nice reward .
