Great report Danny13 thanks for the detail :Y:.

Great work Danny, appreciated by many i bet!

Personally I'd love to see where the different types of all pre decimals come in, and common trash like Bottle tops and pull tabs

For my new Machine I'm tossing up between this and the 3030, 3030 seems much more Complex though so I'm hoping the 'nox is a solid performer

From this report: http://www.detectorprospector.com/forum/topic/5480-oz-nox/?do=findComment&comment=57251
Bottles tops go 20/21/22/23 whereas $2 coins were solid 21/22.
1c & 2c go 34.

That would be brilliant if that's the case

Update on the goldie VID numbers

1 and 2 dollar coins came in at 22 to 23 solid in beach modes 1 and 2.

Trash Nox ID numbers as follow

Pull tabs Nox ID 14 ( suspect that would vary)
Beer tops Nox ID 8 to 20 , the rustier the closer
to 8 but primarily 14/15
Foil Nox IDs from 1 -20 mostly on the lower spectrum.
Bottle tops between 21 and 24
Aluminium candle holder Nox ID 18

Nox is capable of picking up small bits of mettle
At depth . Have not played around with advanced settings at yet

the 3030 is only as complicated as you want to make it suprisingly its actually quite simple to use

Promising tecta - as users get to know it better, probably start to see its full capability. Is it a ctx killer I don't know - i would say it would be a very good backup.

Hi Flyrodder,

The ctx is a great machine - the nox seems pretty capable so far . The difference at the moment is the ctx is a proven and very capable detector - we need to see more reports come in from everyday users before we know where the Nox sits in terms of capability.

Kind Regards

Dan

Read elsewhere that 1c & Goldies have the same TID ?

Have not come across a 1cent piece as yet on a hunt , will try an ID at home with a 1 and 2 cent piece and see what the numbers are.

Kind regards

G'day team. I have had a few inquiries about the TID numbers for the Equinox. If anyone has a starting point for Australian coins and conditions that we could share with other Equinox users that would be great. Any info on Aussie coins and the numbers they ring up will be helpful in creating a list for the Equinox users. I do not own one but trying to gather info on this new detector to share with others. PEACE

Danny13 · Feb 19, 2018

Hi ramjet I started a list on my post

G0lddigg@ · Feb 19, 2018

Great thread. I had a play with one last friday for a bit in the workshop and am waiting for mine to show up. Hope just like the gm was this new addition will be a great low cost wet to dry relic chaser. Great info thanks for sharing your numbers Danny13

Danny13 · Feb 20, 2018

No worries- numbers might vary slightly depending on soil type and how long the targets been in the ground

golddiggerart · Feb 20, 2018

I was sure I commented on your latest finds....Just realised it was your other thread...lol
