Larry P's 61 American Coins: Download
Instructions from, www.minelabforums.com (GREAT SITE! Come join!!!)
All you do is click to download the target package you want, for instance for American coins you would click on Larry P's Incredible 61 target US coins . This will download to your downloads file or wherever you have your downloads go. Open where it is downloaded but do not unzip the file. In a separate window go to your C:\Program Files\EtracEm-V1-en\datazips and then just drag the "61_US_coins.zip" file into the C:\Program Files\EtracEm-V1-en\datazips file. Now your E-Trac emulator has US coins added to it.
The E-Trac's exchange program is great! The unit comes with a Disc (also in Windows format) and users can exchange programs, patterns ext via the E-Trac's USB interface. Its quite simple to use. And you can save up to four programs on the Unit. And as many as you like on the computer. It makes for a quick and easy mode change. And that in itself is something I wish the Explorer II had. Where the EX2 only has 2 modes to save to. And you must program them in manually.
Here is the basic mode I started out with. Coin Pattern With Nickels Download. However, I must say. The E-Trac comes ready to go right out of the box. I did make a few changes to the pattern provided here. I got rid of the top right black bar. As this is where silver dollars and half dollars tend to hit as I am told. And I changed a few settings as well.
I will upload my mode, and discrim pattern as soon as I can. And leave a link to it under the metal detecting side bar.
I have not used the two tone relic mode yet. However. I am told, it is killer! A little noisy. And takes some getting used to. But as I understand it. Some people use this mode quite often. And do extremely well. As the E-Trac is excellent at hearing the good targets over iron! So, I am adding this mode as well.
2 TONE RELIC MODE.
Also. Before I forget. I have been asked quite a lot since I bought my E-Trac. Where I got it from. The answer is at sgtriker.com. Banner is at bottom of page.
Give Ran a call. And ask him about the E-Trac. Tell him Ryan O'Shea from Oregon sent you. He's a great guy. And runs a great shop.
Now. If you are an Explorer or E-Trac user. Zagg.com is having a sale today on their products. Lucky for us. That means, big discount today on the E-Trac and Explorer screen protectors! I just ordered two today! As they were finally within budget. ZAGG.COM - MINELAB SCREEN PROTECTORS
In my next post. I will do an a more in depth review of the E-Trac from a beginner in training. And also compare my personal favorite unit, The Explorer II (with a pro coil added) to give you Explorer users an idea of the difference in the units. So far. I can tell you this much. The Explorer II still holds its title as one of the best machines ever made. And the E-Trac is very much like it. Tones are very much the same. And so far, overall performance is a draw. Lets see how I feel about it in the weeks ahead as I get to know the machine. I have to admit. I am very impressed with this unit so far. Even though, I don't fully understand its language yet. So. I am going buy the golden rule. Dig it all. Because after all, its the best way to learn any machine. So....
See you in the funny pages. Till next time.
Over n out.
