This year, unexpectedly, I traveled on vacation to the Odessa region, namely the settlement Zatoka. I got there at the beginning of the vacation season. Why I was going to the sea at this time of the year, my digging at the sea, and how many detectorists I saw there, you can read about now. In 2017, all the Black Sea coast regions were packed with vacationers. The famous “Odessa...
There is a field near my city, on which many ceramic parts from the Chernyakhov culture (2 -5 c. AD) can be found for many centuries. This ancient settlement wass from the times of the Roman Empire, and it was huge (several square kilometers), so it’s not at all surprising that there are different kinds of stories about this place among diggers, I even know some of them. Story number 1....
Are you wondering how to improve detection depth on your simple Fisher F44 metal detector? That’s easy – and trust me, you will get more finds with it, because it is a lot of relic waiting to be detected located on a depth more than 15 cm. Why 15 cm? It is average efficient depth for the almost every cheap and semi professional metal detector! Answer is simple – just...
I rarely make full reports about detecting, because I often tell about an interesting find. But today it will be a report about what I liked with my result. On a day off, four of us left in the morning to one promising forest. That area was interesting because there they have found a lot of different objects of the Cossack times. The forest I was planning to detect in,...
Hello friends! You know the difference between a budget and an expensive metal detector? That’s right, an experienced digger knows – the price! And what about the depth? Most detectorists chase after the depth, and only experienced people go after new places to detect. The depth is not so important when you are looking for example two hours in a row, not everyone wants to be digging trenches, but why?...
Flipping through some forums about detecting, I came across one very interesting question. Its essence is that the Fisher F44 because of its power in 2 AA batteries, does not preform as well with a large coil as other detectors. Because of this I have 2 questions: How does a metal detector with a large coil lose in depth of detection when the charge in the batteries decreases? Did the engineers...
Making a review of the metal detector, I’ll never tell the theme of it is so that the reader does not have any questions. This is perfectly normal, some highlights for me are not important, while others stop in more detail. I am always happy to questions in the comments, in response to that, we are doing a review of a full, and most importantly, as useful as possible to...
The snow just recently got off the ground, which already was there for three months, while I wanted to go out with my Fisher F44 detector. At that time, it was a lot of strong winds in the area, thereby drying the earth. So, the next weekend I went detecting in the fields, not being afraid of the mud. My chosen field was already dry enough to walk on it...
Now we have entered the year of 2017, and many diggers probably think about getting a new detector for the new season. Some has even already started to dig on the 1st and 2nd of January, and others, like me, waiting for when the end of the wind, the cold and the snow go away. The first fields will be ploughed, and there will be new discoveries. Over the past year I have...
I have been detecting with this detector for quite a while, and in different conditions, and, I believe that i know it very well now, so now I want to share my opinions about this device with you. Firstly, I want to definitely recommend this to all beginners – it is very simple and reliable, its large and easily with a readable display, you can easily see and understand all the information...
