Great hunt Bill. Thanks for showing us what the 6" coil will do on the Equinox...

Amazing machine. Great exibition on what it's capable of. Thanks for the video.

Now I am excited Bill. can't wait......Gold Basin is going to be getting a visit soon . Again Thanks for another GREAT video.

Awesome Bill!! Love your Channel Brother! Congrats on the double gold! And the new coil.

Had that feeling once u got that 6 inch you would find gold..now I can't wait to get mine

The video I've been waiting for. Now there's truly a detector that does it all. Can't wait to get mine! See ya this fall!

Congrats on finding gold first time out with the new head 👍

That is a great machine. A fellow standing beside me won one in a draw. I was very happy for him. A 6 inch coil is a nice size to work with in tailings. I am sure you will get lots of use with the machine and coil combination. Thanks for sharing.

Keep these coming Bill!

Such a damn good informative video. I have an 800 and am about to purchase a 6” for coins in the parks in SoCal but can’t wait to move back to my hometown of Tucson and join some clubs for claims. Every time you found a nugget, I smiled man. I’m stoked. Thanks again and always enjoy watching your videos!

Great video! Thanks for sharing your adventure.

Loved this video... It is a great to see what this machine is capable of. BB's... Really... That is actually awesome... I was glad to see you find some gold too. But with the BB's, that was just a matter of time. I have been considering getting one of these machines but have been on the fence with a few others. But after watching this, can"t go wrong. I really enjoy your videos. Thanks Again for this one!!!

Enjoyed the Digging BB's with Bill show !!!! Nice Gold !!!

Thanks Bill for the video with the 800 considering one for my self. You gave me a good idea of what to anticipate for myself. Happy hunting and good swinging.

I love the "Diggin' BB's with Bill" show! I would love to go hunt with you one day!

Great job Bill.

I've picked up a lot of little bits of aluminum with the 600, I'm in an area where there's not likely to be gold nuggets on the ground. Thanks for sharing your hunt with the 6" coil. That thing looks exciting :D

Congrats you’re probably the first one that found gold with the 6 inch coil. Can’t wait to get my equinox 800 out and look for gold with it. It’s hard to get away from the 7000 right now. Can’t wait to see you compare the gold monster against equinox.

I hadn't really thought of that Dave, no placer gold at all in Japan?

If you pump the coil up and down in all metal mode and the number starts moving all around its probably junk, you can also hit the target with the side of the coil and usually get a junk sound and number, if it's a solid number doing both you got a nice target.

That seem to work pretty good

Hello, thank you very much for the informed videos you upload, I have a question for you about your experience with the two Minelab metal detectors. My question is: I am about to buy a metal detector for native gold in the river and on the river bank in old embankments. In your experience, which metal detector of the two would you recommend me to take Minelab Gold Monster 1000 or Minelab EQUINOX 800 and 6 Inch Coil

would love a 6" coil but i dont find anything of value to pay for it, enjoyed the vid

Bill have you or any of your subscribers used the Coiltek 10"x5" coil, obviously it would give more coverage than the 6" but I'm wondering about the sensitivity, compared to the 6" and the 11". I'm thinking it probably sits in the middle but would like to hear from those with real world experience gold hunting.

can u dry wash the area?

fixing to buy me a 600.. I hear that theres not a lot of difference.. Your thoughts?

Great video. I could hear the sensitivity slightly when I watched this with headphones. Is that the way you set up a threshold based detector for small areas or is that typical for detecting also?

@NUGGETSHOOTER

5 жыл бұрын

I run a threshold on all detectors if available as it allows me to hear those small "bumps" that could be a deep or faint target.

Hello, I would greatly appreciate your help to have your opinion, I am writing to you from Chile. I owned an equinox 800 a little over a year ago with the original 11-inch coil, and I want to ask you if using a 6-inch coil has any considerable advantage to justify your purchase. I usually look in places that sometimes have aluminum and some drink fins, I have not had major problems with the 11-inch coil, Since I have never tried a 6-inch I can not understand if it is worth using, I have also wanted to start grass searches that are in the streets that can have a great search opportunity since my city is very virgin in metal detection, I also want to give it a very casual use in search of a ring or gold nuggets in Rios at the time of heat that allows me to put my feet in the cold waters where I live. Your help will be of great help for a possible purchase. Thank you for the time you take to respond.

can you tellme the settings you are usin? sensibility, threshhold, etc? i got a equinox 800 last week i went to the river in asuza mountains in california but i think i got the wrong settings for gold.

There was only a small first batch shipped by Minelab to us dealers, mine sold out the first day, but will have more in a week or so. Best bet is to prepay with your dealer so you are in on the next round.

What advantages does the Equinox have over any other VLF machine in those conditions you are working in? Seems like shallow nuggets wouldn’t be too much of a challenge. I run a GPX and just got a Nox to replace my AT Pro, but the AT machine pulled gold earring backs like nobody’s business so I think it would find those shallow nuggets as well. What do you think?

NUGGET SHOOTER I understand your perspective. I don’t have any decent nugget ground around here so I keep my skills up by hunting whatever I can. I’ve never used anything but a PI for nugget hunting so I know how challenging they are in mineralized ground, The 800 is a different breed, but I’m cautious until I get more time on it. Meanwhile, I’ll be watching your channel for continuing education.

Hi Woody, the larger coil is not as sensitive to the tiny stuff and the bigger coils cover more ground making it hard to get into and between rocks etc. When I hunt deep I use Pulse Induction.

Also i would like to see how deep it goes on small nuggies under classic garden dirt so please if you are bored and have plenty of time you should make a video for us, European hunters :-) btw largest Nugget found in czech republic was in 16.

Good day my new friend, the 6 inch coil allows you to get into tight places and for gold hunting it is very good to have. We have no classic garden dirt in Arizona USA and our soil.... well is very highly mineralized and the Equinox handles it well in "Multi Freq" Gold one or two depending on conditions and no need to change "iron Bias" in most cases in my experience, email me for more detailed help if needed.

NUGGET SHOOTER Hi Bill, Yeah your highly mineralized soil looks like a real challenge and you have the high temperatures that don't help with the depth in the soil. Over here in South Wales UK I hardly get your extremely hot weather but all my permissions are also on highly mineralized soil, that once were Roman settlements and this land is contaminated with iron, hotrocks and we also get black coal/coke rocks that are very highly conductive. I've been detecting for over 30 years and I've never been so impressed with a detector before, as I have been with the Equinox 800. It will find tiniest targets that even a pinpointer has trouble to locate to Roman gold Staters. I would stick with Equinox because if it's there then it will find it for you. I only used the Field 1 or 2 programmes that I've modified. The tones do need to be adjusted so iron, mid and high tones stand out better. I set my except & reject at -9 to 1 or 2 because coke and hotrocks come up at ids of 1 and 2. Hotrocks will still show up in single frequency. I would experiment using the machine without ground balancing (keep it on Zero) and just noise cancel. Because multi frequency is very sensitive, cell phones will interfere with the Equinox. So just switch you cell phone to flight mode and you're all good. When the Nox is in single frequency cell phones do not effect it. You might know all this already but if not the I hope it helps. I'm learning from your experiences withe 6" coil which looks very impressive in the gold fields. HH Jack
