Hi All,
I have enjoyed reading all the posts that I could possibly read in the last hour or so. I am a THer at heart for 30+ years, but have denied myself the pleasure of owning a MD. Well, was at radio Shack the other day getting some stuff and noticed they had a detector on clearance sale, last years discontinued model. (Made by BH). Was the best model available of Three. I imediately forgot who I was and what other things I should be doing, and went straight to an out of the way park. Found a quarter and a penny in no time flat. Hooked. Have used it for about 6 hours over the last Three days. Find lots of old rusty Square nails, some copper material, another penny, and an old rail tie. Looking forward to the hobby.

Oh, fell asleep.
I live in Santa Clara Valley. I am sure there are a few good places to hunt around here. Any one else in my neighborhood?

Welcome Dboy, I think Steve is in your area, he's a great guy.
Sound's like you need to turn up your discrimination a bit to get rid of the nail's or are you hunting in all metal?
With practice you'll do fine.
Glad to have you aboard, good luck....j im
