Hi

Im new to detecting, i have a X- terra 705 gold pack, ive dug up a few spendies and lots of other not so valuable aliminuim type pieces, Yes pull tabs, while getting use to the detector ive been digging all targets to get an understanding about the discrimination, just wondering if there is any others in the area that might be interested in meeting up ?

Thanks
Pete

Hi Peter,

There are quite a few detectorists in the Nelson ares.
Here is one group: Redirecting...

Hi Pete, Colin’s my name. I’ve been detecting for around 30 years now, only seriously for the last 3 years. I’ve just bought a CTX3030, nothing like the Garrett’s I’m use to so I’m still at the testing stage for this machine, if only the weather was a little more accommodating I’d be into it by now. I don’t have a Facebook account in order to find other detectors in the area, so keen to meet up with someone else for a session. Usually free on Sundays 0221321959.

Good on you Clancy, I haven’t had a chance to meet up with Peter yet but will be making a conservative effort these holidays to get out there with him. I have been looking into a couple of areas that I know will be interesting as I don’t think anyone else has detected there, also I’m getting a permission for a local farmers field that has historical value. I’ll keep your number handy and call you as soon as I get the go ahead. Cheers.

I’m interested Pete, I’m new to it also, I have a Garrett AT PRO, i’m retired so keen most times to go out. My cell is 0211843650. We don’t have the best reception out here in Atawhai so a text might be best. Or the landline 5451354.
