Detech of course produce the acclaimed SEF coils. They have now released their own detector, the EDS.

For those wanting a change, or feeling they need to get the latest innovation - could be a Deus and/or Minelab beater?

Anybody recognise the place where the above photo was taken?
Detech's detector maybe is good as is described but not for this sort of money.

Well spotted Mick - I hadn't noticed the Welsh connection!

Just sent them an e-mail explaining that their cover image was taken on Rhossili Beach which is a  NT beach and as such a big no no for detecting..

Mike just part of this beach belongs to NT  ;D

Whooops could be egg on your chin  ;)

It's been out a little while now Doc, but I still haven't heard of anybody having one. The "in air" tests are giving stupid depths on coins, but as Relichunting and I were saying the other day, how usable will that power be in normal iron contaminated soil?
We shall see.

Really, Now that's news to me. Always thought the whole of Rhossili was off limits because it belonged to NT.
Would you know what section is NT and are we allowed to use what's not?

Always fancied this beach but because of restrictions have never detected there.

Mike

Pleas, look on the OS map  :)

From place called "DilesLike" up north is free of NT.

Check out the Crown Estates map. Rhossilli Bay is not included. Permission from someone will be needed. Does anyone know who ??

Val

The Crown Estates map of available coastline is what I've been going by.
Looking at the ariel photograph, it occurs to me that those dunes have been there for an awfully long time
and we all know what their often used for. Plenty of opportunity for things to drop out of pockets and purses.
I mean bird watching and star gazing are a magnet for lost items..  ::) ::)

Mike

The dunes are usually the one place they don't allow detecting. I've been on trust beaches in Somerset and Devon and as long as your on the beach they are OK.

Thought Jassy had a run-in with one of the wardens on the beach down there?

Love to have a few hours on that beach but don't want to cause hassle.

wasnt me Mike,never been to that beach, and have never had a run in with anyone while out detecting!!! lol!! must be someone else!

far too much sand at rhossili mike.a while back all the sand went of broughton beach and ended up on there.if it was any good i would be there regular

£900 is the sale price from JA.

No wonder many haven't been seen! 

There's other 14khz detectors from established makes that are nearly half that.

It was me Mike.  As far as I can remember I'm the only one who's been 'Put in their place'  by a N.T.Warden. :-[

I was about to dig at the top of the beach which she really didn't like very much. She did indicate that the beach was more acceptable even though the Crown Licence didn't cover that part. That was by Pendine, nearer to me.

I had a look on their site and as far as I can see they seem to be responsible for all that coast line. They don't provide a site map though so there could be stretches that are clear. They have a photographic tour which might give you a better idea. There are places shown whos names I don't recognise but you might.

Cheers Val.. You naughty girl you.  :D
