WAY TO GO RIP

You sure did better than I did on my first time out with the X-70.
Those are some real nice finds for anyone.

Fantastic for the first time out with a new machine. Alien beeps are music to the ear.
Happy hunting in the future too.

Thank's y'all, It was a virgin yard as i dont think it has ever been searched.The preasent house dates to the 30's but there was a house there before that burned down.theres still alot of area to search so I'll be going back soon !
I was impressed by the x-70.I think i've figgered out the tones to listen for.One thing though I'll need to wear the headphones as some of the signals were abit weak.My fisher sounds off loud and clear even on deep coins so i need to get used to that.I found that i was getting great depth.One wheat was down about 8-10 inches.The number readout is also going to take some getting used to.A 44 is supposed to be a 1/2 dollar or large cent so I'm hopeing to be able to verify that soon. Both the firebird and the caddy came up as a 44
