Hi - i am Rick Hart --live north of the Dallas /Ft Worth area just south of the Red River. I appreciate being accepted on this Forum -and it one the last true forums with plenty of feedback . i just turned 65 and started detecting back in 1986 with a Teknetics Mark 1 ( Gosh paid around 700 dollars for it !). Off and on detecting over the years till 2001 when i got the internet and found the "forums" -which renewed my interest in detecting -Monte was one of my first email contacts asking for his advice "seemed to be the man in the know" -- i have dealt with some you over the years - . i presently hunt with a Nokta Impact ( bought from Joel "kickindirt"} a fine dealer /gentleman. Also hunt with a Tek Omega 8000 and have a Cibola -high tone .
When i first started detecting in the North Texas area -it was old homesites , farms , fields and such -now with the huge amount of Urban sprawl, housing additions , -- i look for properties that have been bulldozed down -and get permission from the realtor /owner to hunt the few weeks before the new addition is built , Rick
