CTX 3030 Adventures

They should send you a GPZ7000 as a loaner

 

[Easypeasy]

Is there a vid on how to cut a nice plug in a track or park, so we don't upset the locals and council?

 

[silver]

I agree the star on it looks crisp and pointy, and the coin has a hint of nice toning as well.

very nice hunt indeed. ESPECIALLY on the 1928 FLORIN, in considerably good condition.

 

[Dejan027]

The GPZ was accidentally leaked by a minelab web designer. Apparently it wasn't supposed to be announced for some time. It will be around $10k. So I doubt that they will loan me one. It was the first question I asked when I handed over my machine. I asked him if it was a marketing ploy but was told that the web designer was sacked.

 

[Dejan027]

Well took out the Aldi Elcheepo to a favorite park that doesn't have any rubbish.

Turned up the sensitivity to max and discriminated the first 5 bars out.

Not a bad day with the Aldi Elcheepo (I'm glad that the park is rubbish free)

Until next time

 

[Sandta]

Damn ... Thats some site you have
Congrats , well done once again

 

[Wally69]

What a ripper of a hunt

 

[Dejan027]

It's not the detector.

It's just an awesome park that everyone seems to have missed

 

[silver]

yeeehaaah,... well done DJ, no rubbish, just the good stuff,.. that's how I like to see it done.

 

[Dejan027]

The council should be paying me a wage for cleaning the park.

 

[Heatho]

It's not the detector.

Yes it is, the Aldi rocks. :lol:

 

[thaitran]

hey dejan may i ask what settings and discrim pattern you were using on your ctx you seem to be doing very well but im guessing you working hard out there .shame about your ctx.

 

[Dejan027]

Hi thaitran,

I run my own program that I created.

Similar to the silver program but more tailored to the parks that I hunt.

I have also changed the tones as I find that the silver ones are all over the place.

 

[Dejan027]

Hi All,

Went out on Friday and Saturday night for about 5 hours.

Thanks to Miners Den for lending me their CTX.

$70.05 in spendables

A few pennies and halfs

1 Threepence

Highlight of the day is a 1891 Jubliee shilling.

A few other bits and pieces.

Too tired today to label everything.

Until next time.

 

[silver]

Fancy shilling,... well done on the lot DJ27.

 

[Goldpick]

Yes, the shilling is a great find, don't see many of those around, well done.

Nice of Miners Den to lend a CTX for the day, pretty good service.

 

[Ramjet]

That's an awesome collection. Nice work.

 

[Dejan027]

Thanks guys.

I thought it was half a crown when it came out of the ground.

Had to look it up to find out what it was.

Weird signal as well 1:47

 

[MrCornford]

Hey Dejan, you mention your adjustments to the programs. Any chance you could share the file or talk me through what changes you made? I love this machine but I feel there is more I could get out of it.

Cheers!

 

[Dejan027]

All up we were out around 4 hours at a park that has been flogged.

Funny how coin angles in the ground make so much of a difference with tones.

Until next time
