- Join me as I show you my Minelab Equinox 800 beach settings in both dry sand and wet sand, I also show you how I try my best to work with the highly mineralized sands containing magnetite.
I treasure hunt using a Minelab Equinox 800. I would like to thank the CKG Scoop company for providing me with such an awesome beach scoop. I was really missing Old Rusty and to have something almost identical is like having my old friend and gold magnet back.

great settings demo. I have to pay attention more now with my new 800.. haha.. whoa.. holy moly!! I was just at the beach wishing I had a shaft for my scoop!! Now I can hunt the beach like a pro!! Totally awesome Jim!! :)
I was so happy to see your name get picked, knowing you got a new nox. I will forward your info to CKG later this afternoon after work. Congrats again!
This is a perfect tutorial for this device Jim. When I receive my Equinox 800 I'll definitely be using these settings and giving it a go. Coming from the e-track I know I'm going to have a lot to learn and with your knowledge and you sharing it with us it is really appreciated. Thanks Jim
Thank you!
Congratulations Mark & Cory!!!
Thank you!
Congratulations Cory!
I would dig it. It sounds like a gold ring, because it is a lower tone above iron and foil, and below a silver tone. I also think you gave us a hint that you have found a lot of gold lately. Thanks Jim. I enjoy your channel!
Gold ring is a great answer, Thank you for playing! 👍😎
The hanks for the wonderful lesson and I would dig the gold earring.
Congratulations Mark
welcome back! find some nice!!!
Thank you!
Nice hunt hope your back starts feeling better 👍🏻
Thank you!
Great tutorial Jim. I like your ability to explore things clearly 👍😎
Thank you, Ray. Hey what happened to our buddy, the beach cleaner? He made a funny joke on my channel and one of my viewers attacked him for his banter and now I do not see him on youtube. 😪
@@funwithjim I didn't know that. But I do know he dropped his channel. He was frustrated that he wasn't getting subs. We were supposed to get together go on a hunt.
Okay, ☹ glad he is okay. And yes; getting subs is difficult. SEO and Eye catching thumbnails is working for me. Please tell him that I am sorry that one of my viewers disrespected him and I blocked that guy from my channel. I loved to watch his videos, we both mumble on camera. Lol! I would love to hunt with both of you at some point, thanks again Ray for letting me know.
@@funwithjim No problem Jim. Take care 👍😎
Great video Jim Congrats Cory and I'd dig it sounds like a quarter Dig On ! 👍

I would dig it. I think it is a nice new quarter!

Great Channel. Thank you for sharing this tutorial. I'm on board-Subscribed!
Awesome, thank you!
Hope your back gets better!!!
I am working on making it stronger, Thank you!
So sorry I missed your live! I got to go out and actually search a beach today. It sucked but I got to go out and do it! I ordered a scoop so it should be in soon and I can try again. That figures now that I’ve ordered a scoop I could’ve got a discount but that’s OK. Not watch the video yet so good luck!
Thank you!
Great video Jim. I was at the same cut on Sunday with my E Trac and found a few coins but no jewelry. That thing was hard to detect because it was so big. Thanks for sharing.
How does the E-trac handle the black sands?
@@funwithjim it wasn't too bad and I don't claim to be an expert at all up with this machine although when I did get near some of that black sand when I did touch the coil to the ground a few times it did say overload on the screen I did not change any basic settings and I was in Beach mode on that machine
Thank you for the info, I have been curious about how the differences in FBS and BBS technology. My conclusions is, BBS and PI machines are best for the black sands at Sunset.
@@funwithjim your welcome. By the way, where did you purchase the coil saver clip on the end of your Nox ? I would like to order one before I receive mine and have the clip here ready to go. Should have my 800 tomorrow or Friday
I would dig it. It’s a ring.
a ring is a great answer, Thank you for playing!
oh.. yeah.. holy sock tan Jim!! haha
Lol, that would be a beach shoe tan. The top of my head is the same way as I always wear a hat. Lol!
U the best

Great video! 👍 don’t forget to cheek that dime you found😃
Thank you, I think I tossed it in my bucket of clad already. So yes I will need to fish it out and double check it. 👍
Sir, I have the 900 and was wondering if you could tell me how to eliminate some hits that give me bottle caps...
Honestly, I dig bottle caps because they are not always bottle caps. I have found a lot of rings over the years thinking they were bottle caps. Most bottle caps have iron and ridged edges, some have foil wrap, some are aluminum so you will dig them anyway. If not digging iron bottle caps is important then hunt in discrimination mode and adjust iron bias higher.
I'd dig it, it's a silver ring. :D
silver ring is a great answer, Thank you for playing! 😎👍
I'd dig it, Toy car
a toy car is a great answer, Thank you for playing! 😎👍
I'd dig it, going with a quarter
a quarter is a great answer, Thank you for playing!
A beach that was hammered is not much left ..but you did find a ring..and yeah not all detectorist pick up the trash and cherry pick targets.. I do once in awhile will cherry pick and other times I just get my dig on..
I like the name change Dan, many detectorists in So Cal cherry pick. Many just dump the trash back on the sand and walk away never collecting any trash at all. You know I have something to say to them when I see them dump there trash back on the beach.
@@funwithjim Right there is a fool that digs in the parks/ballfields and leaves the beaver tails and other dug crap by the hole in the hole or close by tossing it..
Good video, Correct use of Beach 1. I see so many that use Beach 2 in dry/wet sand when that mode has reduced power and according to the manual is for when the machine is completely submerged.
Thank you 🤙
May I ask where you got the secondary handle on your scoop pole?
I think you are referring to the Motus T-Grip, the place I used to get them from went out of business this month. Thank you 🤙
I would dig it! I’m thinking a toy car

Interesting im hopefully gonna try beach soon how do you wash your machine after i.e to remove the sand and how do you rate the 15inch coil ?
I just hose off the machine when I get home, usually pop the coil skid plate off and hose the inside of the coil out too. The 15" coil - I feel it covers more ground but only slightly more in depth. Thank you!
@@funwithjim hi thanks i keep with the 14x9 then for now then though it is heavyish Im working out to get the new 15inch or the one you use currently so can get deepest on pasture mainly
Pasture / Field - I would agree the bigger the coil the better!
So let me get this straight I’m kinda new. So (F2) 0 - 4 means you will pick up for trash iron but better chance of not missing a score. And (F2) higher than 4 your reducing the chance of finding every piece of junk but may lose a good score from accidentally canceling out something good from trying to cover up the iron? My NOX 800 comes in 2 days 🙃🙃
F2 is all metal mode already, many variables but basically yes however, iron rich soil need a delicate balance to actually capture a accurate return signal to coil. So if you set F2 to low of settings in high iron rich areas then it will be too sensitive causing a lot of false targets or false-ing off small thin iron. So moving up to above 4 will help. So No Iron in sand or soil (very rare) then a F2 0 all metal would be a true all metal mode. Iron Bias settings on our nasty black sand beaches are perfect at F2-4 or Fe-6.
I'd dig it a dime
a dime is a great answer, Thank you for playing! 😎👍

I'd dig it, it's a tungsten ring. :D
Tungsten ring is a great answer, Thank you for playing! 😎👍
what kind of shoe do you wear (I'm guessing sand isn't getting in it??)
seekway beach shoes, I also wear tight socks turned inside out to prevent the sand that does get into my shoes from hurting my feet. I have tried everything over the years, spending thousands on dive booties that still fill with sand or rip after the 3rd or 4th use. Thank You 👍
I would dig it. I have no idea based on video, I am guessing a dime. :)
a dime is a great answer, Thank you for playing! 😎👍
I would dig it somewhere but the beach it has an iron signal. I think it's a bottle cap.

So what were your advanced settings as well cheers from Australia 🇦🇺.
It has been a while since I used the 800 but if I remember the only advanced setting change I made was to the Iron Bias running F2-4 rather than FE-6 on occasion, I never changed the threshold or pitch.
@@funwithjimtones I do one. Combo for true silver and notch one for clad all rolled into one the pitch to tones for true silver gold nearly the same clad all low seems to stop that vdi jump as for pull tabs good knocked out ally bottle top if one get a close vdi I pop coil as a test if ya get a negative number like 1 or 2 then jumps to say 1or to off vdi.
I would dig it, sounds like a solid nickel sound, so how about a gold ring
a gold ring is a great answer, thank you for playing! 😎👍
I'de dig it, it's a toy car. And too, you were gonna check out that dime?
I totally forgot about the Dime, tossed it in with the clad. Ooops! a toy car is a great answer, Thank you for playing! 😎👍
