Hello folks, newbie here. Lost an expensive arrow and buying a used detector-- always "Wanted" one anyway, so looking for one that can do most anything. . .
Found this Whites DFX, 2007 version with an extra 12" coil, looks like new on Craig's List
$300.
Sounds like a really good deal...
Hello fellow White users, this is a post concerning White's Spectra V3I. I've hunted with the DFX for a few years, and was very happy with my finds. Last month I purchased a new White V3I, and spent the big bucks expecting a big return in my finds, increased depth, better accuracy and less...
I've gotten back into the sport after a couple of years off. My current detector is a DFX I bought used, with the 9.5, 5.3 and 18" coils. The only problem I have is the right side of the display occasionally drops out (currently working fine).
My question is - given it is out of production...
Trade: 2 Machines. Silver uMax, Omega 8000
Need to try and trade off 2 of my detectors for other models for a project I am working on. I ship Either USPS or Fedex whichever is cheaper and can ship M-F. Will trade with established members unless you are local to Ventura, CA area and then can be...
Went to a couple of parks yesterday and today, scored a 1946 and 1949 S Rosies, a sterling cross, a cheap M (for MAckDog) ring, a victorian pin and 14 inch herring bone plated necklace. I found most of these with my At Pro, but did find my first 7 inch deep penny with the DFX a 1917 S in good...
So been running both the At Pr0o and the DFX against each other. Yesterday the Pro won with 2 Mercs. Today I used the Pro first again and got a handle full of clad. Then I went with the DFX and ran it at 15khz to work on nickels and jewelry. Got 9 nickels all clad and then I got another...
Still waiting for the AT Pro to get back from the shop. Took the DFX out for walk in the park. Hit mostly clad but did score this 1902 V Nickel, I know it's tasted but it hit solidly at 7". So I'm getting to learn the DFX now. Thanks for looking
Well the At Pro came back yesterday and is no longer sick it's officially DEAD and going back in. So no water hunting, just using the DFX in a very hunted out highly trashy campground park. Found my 3rd silver there today. Set the DFX up to cherry pick pennies and above, and almost everything...
Since the At Pro is down been using my DFX with a sniper 4 x 6. It's been nailing coins in a very high trashy park at my campp ground. Today got a good signal and trashy sign; about 2 " apart. Couldn't pinpoint the good signal because the trash was so much stronger. After I du a pull tab...
DFX earned it's Jump wings and the AT Pro nailed a Barber and took home the ring
Still trying to get the hang of the DFX so I split time with the At Pro. The DFX hit a nice set of jump wings at 4" and a few more coins. The At Pro hit the Barber (1906 S) at 8" and the silver ring (325) at 5"...
Yesterday went to a club hunt at a Boy Scout camp. found a a couple of wheats with the At Pro and a silver 1945 S war nickel with the DFX. Today went to a local park and found 50 plus clads with the DFX and a 1928 S Merc and a wheat with the At Pro. Starting to get used to the DFX and it is a...
Ok so I don't hate the DFX anymore
went yesterday and got the British penny and steel ring with the At Pro. Today I decided to give the DFX a real shot (left the At Pro at home so I couldn't switch back). Found 30 clad coins (9 nickels) the bling ring, a set of gold earrings (plated) and an...
went to the hot park again, this time only used the DFX. Boy does it rock. went through all bottle cap infested areas and dug 0 caps. It was so nice I decided to dig all nickels and plumbs but no gold today. Man the DFX is right on the money with pinpointing and depth. Found over 50 clads...
Took the DFX out to try it out. Man it's like having a bunch of detectors. Each program I used sounded and acted totally different. Started in the coins mode for a few got the hang of it and then went to the jewelry and coins for a while. Then work out with the Hi trash program and then the...
I recently parted with a beloved XLT and am using another brand as my main detector. I'm making finds w/the new machine, it's a bit deeper than my XLT but after doing some school yard hunting the past few days, I miss the old girl and want another white's for a secondary machine. There's just...
DFX: Let's examine Jeff Foster's "Digging Deeper with the DFX"
I have 7 or so publications explaining how to get the most of the Whites DFX 300. I purchased my detector 5 years ago and have barely scratched the surface (no pun) with this incredible machine. In my recent perusals of these...
