    I've beeen detecting for about 7 years now with a DFX and multiple coils. I'm usually on my own because there are not many other people into metal detecting it seems.

    If it is feasable we should try to get a metal detecting gettogether sometime after the weather begins to cooperate. This way we could meet face to face and help each other out. And also share some exciting stories. We could make it a nice picnic also.
    I'm in Pennsylvania so if anyone else is near me we can try to work something out for either this spring and summer. Any comments for either for it or against it? Post your thought on here.

    Got my first machine 43 years ago. It's a really fun hobby. White and Garrett make some great machines. Still looking for that first gold coin. Maybe someday.

    I have had a simple tandy,s metal detector with a non-ferrous discriminator on it, works well on soil. but for the parts of the river thames where i look its no good as there is so much metal rubbish from ship braking scrap. i have found some very old things like pins, keys, but just one good coin, with a metal detector.
