I concur. Have learned so much from you! Thank you.
 

I agree 100%. Thanks for all the information. Now can you please come to my house and set up my Nox800 for me? :laughing7:

Appreciated folks.

I just try to take some of the mystery and confusion out of the technology used by translating it from engineering and marketing speak into more digestible words. Or flesh out concepts that are ambiguous or vague.

I personally know, correspond, and in some cases, get opportunities to hunt with folks like Andy Sabisch, Clive Clynick, and Calabash who write the books and make the videos.

Smokey the Cat teaches me the practical aspects of detecting and the history of the finds with access to some amazing and difficult to detect sites that hone my detector skills like setup, swing, coil control,, target interrogation, and target recovery.

Met some great lifelong friends and amazingly skilled detectorists here and on detecting outings and in boot camps. I learn a lot from those I am supposedly teaching.

So I am thankful to all the people who have taught me about detecting and detectors.

I don't give specific advice on detectors I haven't used, I try to do look ups on questions I don't know off the bat, and I do get some things wrong sometimes (and admit it and try to correct the erroneous info when I can). I can sound like a broken record when attempting to address repeated misconceptions and myths which people misinterpret as "giving flack" etc. or just tell me flat out that I am wrong, which is fine. I listen to legitimate criticism and try to do better.

But I have no brand or model loyalties to defend or other agendas other than just trying to put out the most accurate information I can so others can enjoy detecting as much as I do.

HH everyone.

I really appreciate the great mix of science and common sense that V brings to the forums, as well as his excellent writing and teaching skills.
 

You take the :icon_scratch: out many of the time-thanks for your input on getting through to folks like me that find it a little more than confusing on how things work.
 

Very well said Gare, I share your opinion, he's helped me out on more than one occasion!!! "D"
 

The ability to convey in words very meaningful information is a much appreciated asset. It takes time and effort…and to just do it to help others takes a man whose heart is in a good place. ACCURATE information is priceless, and he has a lot of it. He is an INVALUABLE guy to have around, I have learned some things I didn't even know existed.

Apparently no longer around?
 

Hasn't been on for 7 weeks now
Maybe Smokey has heard from him.
 

He's ok. Talked to him two days ago. We did a dig April 1 together. Except for a few keeper items, we haven't gotten into a hot site this winter/spring season. He also Has the Deus 2.
