I think I have figured it out. I'm not hooked on metal detecting, I'm hooked on metal detectors! I have been at this metal detecting business for just over a year. When I first got interested I had none and now I have four! There is no way I can use four at once, can't even use two at once very well 'cause I have tried! When I can't get out and hunt I fnd myself getting them out and fondling them, pushing the buttons and watching the pretty lights , listening to the sounds of the rebars in my slab foundation, cleaning them off, checking the batteries and rechecking the batteries, making the shaft shorter, making the shaft longer, sighting down them like a rifle, moving them from one location in the house to another, double checking that I have the right coils with the right detecto, sorting batteries and being sure each detector has spares, moving the batteries from one case to another by brand, charging and recharging my rechargeables, reading and rereading all the manuals,just pushing the imaging button on my 2500 to hear that ladies voice I have fallen in love with, hiding them from my wife who thinks I only have two, (although I know in my heart she is wise to me).......and many other things I can't think of right now. At least I don't sleep with them or dress them up ....yet! I really need another one like a hole in the head yet that Whites DFX is looking good and my credit card isn't maxed out yet, or maybe even that Minelab although it is a foreigner. Perhaps it can be "Americanized"? I noticed Kellyco doesn't even list a price for their DFX, "call for special pricing".....no way, they might talk me into buying it, I hope.... gasp! See what I mean, any excuse! Is it just me or is it happening to all of us? Monty
