Default new to TQ and to metal detecting

Hello to all. My name's David and I am from Dinwiddie, Virginia. I am an avid civil war buff an I have always been interested in relic and coin hunting. I just received my Fisher F75 detector yesterday from Kellyco.I have been going over the manual cover to cover to get an idea of how to get started with it. I am new to MD however, so any good tips that you guys can share would be great. Thanks.....

The best anyone can give you is keep reading the manual &

PRACTICE
PRACTICE
PRACTICE
PRACTICE

If you don't think it is working right then
PRACTICE
some more.
Also use headphones so you can hear the faint and deeper signals.
Good luck and keep us posted on your finds & opinions or questions.

I would say that on top of practicing a whole heck of a bunch, that researching your site is probably the best thing you can do. Make sure you have permission to hunt, too. Oh yeah, get to know your machine and PRACTICE!! :)

Welcome to the best MD forum. Don't get discouraged if you don't find a lot right away. I just started a month ago and I am still just trying to figure out what the heck my detector is saying. I am getting better so there is hope for us all
