Good Day.
I built my first detector back in 1970, from a Heathkit. The only thing it was really any good at, was working out your forearm, as it was heavy and unbalanced.
I never owned a real detector until now. (UPS says my Equinox 800 will be here tomorrow, signature required, yay !).
I've always checked in on this hobby over the years, odd I never persued it, guess I was too busy being an audiophile.
Nevertheless, now disabled with various medical issues, I'm in Mountain Home, Arkansas. Smack dab in-between two rivers, and two lakes. This is The Middle Of The Ozarks, one great place to live in the USA, especially so if you like clean air and water. This will be a good hobby for me to get some excecise. I've followed numismatics all my life, so hope to that helping me to be a knowledgeable coin-shooter, at least with USA coins.
An extra benefit is my spouse is right on board with all this, and is excited to become a part of this hobby.
So cheers to all of you, my new friends. I do have some questions to ask, but I'll reserve those for other posts.
