Hi to you all,...well where do I start ?....well here goes .. about a year ago my other (Better half)..was diagnosed with a very nasty cancerous kidney !!.which obviously knocked us both for six to say the least...Well the good news s that now she is virtually back to 100% I can start to consider getting back to kitting myself out with another MACRO RACER +all the other bits and pieces us detectorist's need.
Unfortunately, thinking that I would never get back to Detecting I sold all of my gear 😥..so I have been in touch with Kevin at Staffs metal detectors..who is putting together a  package,detector,pin pointer finds pouch,well you know the rest.
 As we all know Detecting gear is very pricey these days,and Kevin has been absolutely brilliant on helping me out with a very competitive price...
Hopefully I will be back on the fields by Autumn....sadly my Roman coin finds  permissions are no longer available so it will be back to knocking on the doors again.
Just thought you would like to know...in the mean time...good hunting for you all..👍..😁

Are you getting the Racer I or Racer II.

I'm still looking for a decent program for my Racer II - as it still seems to love that Iron.

I got some help on a rally I went to recently  - there was one change to the program I was running, which allowed the iron-ness of a signal to be more obvious by being a very high pitched tone - which meant I dug a lot less. Still haven't really got on with it yet though.

Great news for you and your other half Chris, well pleased for you. Onward and upward I know how you liked the Makro so no supprises your getting the same again. It's a shame about your Roman site you had some nice bits from there, did some one else slip in there whilst you were away from detecting ?

Good luck and welcome back.....even thou you never really left.... Cheesy Wink

Hi Paul, many thanks for you welcome back comments..👍...yes the  Macro RACER (original) is a detector that I feel really at home with...just had to get another,I did consider the going for the MK2 RACER but quite honestly it was a lot more to buy and after reading reviews it was virtually the same detector with a few modifications .
Regarding the "Roman"fields,big shame,the land has been sold to a "gentleman"farmer who doesn't want detectorist's on it...big pitty,as I am convinced that there is "plenty more" goodies lying there just waiting to be found ..😁
It's great that you are still bringing home some very spectacular finds...long may it continue....Good hunting Paul..👍

Hi Mr PROBONO !!..how are you keeping,and thanks for your comments.
I'm going to stick with the Macro RACER (red).. original...it a detector that I really relate to.When I had my first Racer it was such an easy detector to learn...and it improved even more with the addition of a MARS"TIGER"coil..WOW !!..what a difference, much more deapth,and far more sensetivitie.!!...for me a dream machine at a very competitive price.
Also I found it had a very  acceptable performance on black mineralised sand.My Actual re-start will probably be at the beginning of Autumn...bit cooler and hopefully some nice landowner will allow me to detecting on his/her fields.
Nice to hear from you,Good hunting...👍
