Howdy and welcome. You are in a fantastic area for history detecting. Definitely dig all signals for a while until you gain some confidence with the machine, and it's really not a bad idea permanently, especially if you are in an old spot with relics.

Happy Swingin

Thanks for the welcome, and yes, lots of history here, from Indians to Sullivan's Campaign and so much more.

Yeah, I think so... looks just like The Bounty Hunter Quick Draw II.

And I go to St. Lawrence County every summer (and Canada). Usually stay around Black Lake.

Yes, it's UPstate.
Hey that is cool, I am only a couple of miles from Black Lake. Actually about 5 miles from it. Steve.

If it has manual ground balance it is the Landstar take-off. I have used a Landstar for 12 years and love it. Compare it to any other detector you plan to purchase...you may be surprised.
