Re: Coil problem....not good

Now that seems odd that the connector came apart like that. Of course you can't see inside a good one to know how it broke or what small piece may have broken to allow the knurled nut to come off the...

Re: Coil problem....not good

That's the first of that problem I have seen. I have strong fear of water damage, and I screw my connectors on pretty tight and never had a problem. Like nagov said, I've seen a cut-away of a new one...

Re: Direct GPS Track Data Extraction from the CTX3030 Without Using XChange2.

QuoteAngelicStorm This brings the question of why would someone want to do this when they could do it within the exchange2 program itself? Is it the reason of better accuracy or reliability in...

Re: Do the numbers on the CTX and the Etrac match?

Re: Coil problem....not good

There may have been a circular ring of spring wire that acts as a keeper inside. I would think Minelab will fix it no charge if you get it to them. Otherwise find a similar connector from Digikey or...

Re: $*&@#% Iron!

I use FC most of the time and have few problems with nails. Turn on your target trace. When you get a signal, look at the target pattern. If it looks like a random "shotgun" pattern, it's iron. A...

Re: Minelab has fumbled the football!!!

Totally agree with you but Kieth uses his in salt water. Not that many good choices for him, me and others when it comes to hunting salt water .... Especially if you want the good ID features. If it...

Re: CTX and headphones.

The stock headphones work fine as cheap headphones, but they suck at long duration detecting use. It's not that they "don't work", they just don't cut out the internal speaker. These are the same...
