Default Old School House

Went hunting yesterday at an old school house built in 1912. It now belongs to a church. Right behind this school house is the old ball field along with the stone bleachers. The field has been reclaimed from overgrowth. That's good, except for the fact that they scraped away a good bit of the top layer.... along with anything that may have been in it. So I decided to work the edges.... where they pushed the top layer off of the side of the field. There, I found a 42 penny. After that, I went up to the bleacher area, and found a 42 Nickel. That's all I found.... kinda weird that both coins were 42 I thought. Also, yesterday was the first day I got to use my new wireless headphones.... man I wouldn't go any other way now.. they worked great!

Hi,

Can you please explain how wireless headphones work with a metal detector? I am not picturing where the transmitter is hooked up...

I would be very interested in a pair if I can figure out the logistics.

Robert
