Hi Everyone!!!

Well, we just got our first detector, ACE 150, we like it alot, we just get confused about the readings. We are learning our machine, my hubby had always wanted to do this...We are trying out our yard first....getting to know the beeps and stuff, well, we were told that it is gonna be hard for us to go metal detecting anywhere around here. Alot of people hates MD'ers... :o I really don't understand why? ??? They think we are ruining history by digging up history from the ground. ??? Anyway, we are gonna go and look around and see what we can do....We tried an historical site but that's gonna be out too....the person who owned the land said NO WAY to MDers!! He claims they are nothing but trouble... :-\ Anyone from Louisiana here? If not, we would really love some advice from all you MDer's out there!!! :)


Thank you!!! ;D

I dont see why anyone could not like this hobby. Try giving them an issue of western eastern treasure magazine to look at, maybe then they will see how nice the hobby is ;D
 

Welcome newbie.I'm new at this also and find that it a great site with friendly folks and tons of info.
 

Thank you for the welcome :) ;)

welcome.....talk to your friends perhaps a relative of someone you know might have a place to detect..also practice in your own yard making plugs if you can show people you are NOT a nuisance you might get permission..try detecting schools and parks and swimming holes

goodluck and happy hunting

Ummmmmmmmm, nothing much!!!! ::) ;D


We are still looking :)
 

Welcome. Keep at it. The more you use your machine the more accustomed to it you with get. You have probally read to make a coin garden. Take different types of coins and jewelry and bury them. Then watch and listen to your machine. Practice Practice Practice
 

OH have we been practicing!!!! We have been out there every single day, in our yard....listening and reconizing signals...found a few bottle caps and pulltabs, my husband dug a hold a foot deep ONLY to find a pull tab! LOL ! :o We are learning day by day, I love it and me and my husband just enjoy doing this!!!!

Ok, so how long will it be before you get your second detector so you two can work together like bigrig40 and knorski? You will soon see it's no fun sitting on the sidelines or just digging for the other person. Let's keep that marriage equal! Welcome to the forum and see ya' in the chat room from time to time.

Hi Jim!!!

Thank you very much!! Well, I don't mind the digging, we take turns digging and MD'ing...so it doesn't really matter! :) Actually he likes digging!!! LOL 8) We take turns on who does what...we work like a team...We help each other..:) I like it that way..:):)
