Air testing The CTX 3030 capabilities of some of the most common targets we find on the beach. Air test consist of gold rings, silver rings, gold bracelets, Tiff & Co, platinum, Tiff & Co 18K, gold pendants, very thin gold necklace, coins, bottle caps etc.
Thanks for sharing...definently helpful,,I see you killin it on them Cali. beaches..im brand new with the CTX..but i see you getting Gold constantly with it..im like Wow..i think its jus a matter of time till i get Gold..Ive only found real gold one time with the equinox..so im hopin with the CTX it will be more frequent..I see your def..Livin the Dream!!
@@DMcCormickBeachMetalDetecting Thanks man, for checking out the channel. Good luck with your CTX it will come through Brother👍. I didn’t know you had a YT Channel, I’m subbing right now👍👍👍
Oh man.... that’s the truth the air test just gives us a more understanding of the machines capabilities. If a target is on edge or near iron, VDI changes drastically. Alright thanks for tuning in
Frank Mons It could be iron based, sometimes on lower grade gold chains they’ll use that material with plating. Most likely it’s silver with plating, the beach is full of chains that will never be found. Let’s stick with the chunky gold rings👍👍👍
Marilyn Groves Hello Happy Thanksgiving I hope everything went exceptionally well for you. This year 2020 was a complete blur thanks for tuning in have a great day.
👍👍👍 let’s hope they send the machine out soon, they haven’t produced very many. I’ve been in the waiting list for 2 months. They are set to release in April 2021. GL&HH
Hey brother Happy Thanksgiving the best to you and your family. Always appreciated when you tune in, thanks for checking in. The mystery of the hobby, and learning is definitely having the right attitude, definitely digging it all especially with an Equinox. As we learn our confidence goes up, some parts of the beach are super trashy, in the water I highly suggest to dig as much as you can. Have a great day take it easy 👍👍👍
Thanks I’m still testing out the iPhone 12 Pro Max, it ran real smooth through Final Cut Pro X editing software. I still have to mess around with advanced auto focus. This might be a great camera since it has the ability to record in Dolby Vision. Alright have a great day good luck on your side Happy Thanksgiving.
I’m not sure bottle caps read in all different ranges depends on the rust and shape. Also different modes will change the VDI. Thanks for watching have a great day
Brian Sheren Hello thanks for tuning in, I just felt like posting an air test showing VDI capabilities. Thanks for tuning in much appreciated have a good day👍👍👍
I live in Alaska! I think the 7000 was modeled after this for gold. Except its a lot of $$$$$. I would like to concentrate mostly on GOLD nugs, silver, and native findings! What I like most is the LCD on this! I want it, but I'm uncertain of its ability to find high-end minerals? Not looking for tin cans or bullets. What say you? I haven't researched many other brands? I REALLY like this one, except for that one uncertainty. Must get wet is a have too. People's videos only show coin mode every time? Is silver mode for GOLD too? I do like it better than the 800!🤠
Ignore all numbers use your ears ,paid off for me ,I found the Roman licking dog hoard with ears only ,numbers were all over the place and target trace was all up and down the screen ,thought it was a deep horse shoe but I could hear a small sqeak in the background, that sqeak paid me £110k 🤘 love my CTX and swing that coil low and real slow
What does the first two numbers mean? the nox can hunt with single frequencies, can the 3030 do that ? Why did you not pick the deus as a favorite? I had the idea that on dry land the deus would be better than the nox.
I own both CTX and the Nox, CTX runs more frequencies also much more accurate VDI. 2 #’s are Ferrous and Non Ferrous with the Deus it’s a love and hate relationship, it’s a great relic machine dig it all jumpy VDI. You’re going to have to hunt with a Deus to understand what I mean about the Jumpy VDI
JJJAMES thanks. Yes I see you with a lot of different machines, I like that because it lets me see how other machines work. Your one of the few that seems to know all the machines other just use and don’t seem to really know them. U da man. I enjoy using different single frequencies on my 800. Think to many people are stuck on multi. Can the 3030 do single frequencies? Sorry bout being long winded (:
Morning Tripple J 🌞. I spend more time running down videos due to lack of notifications than I do watching. I'm really getting fed up with UA-cam. I'm going to be duplicating my YT posts on Rumble from here on out. I Know I've said it before. But, the CTX 3030 is still a great viable machine 👍😎
Good Morning I hear you about UA-cam, I have deleted the app then reinstalled. It works much better, sometimes these apps or sites need a refresh of fresh install, then restart your device hopefully that helps👍👍👍. CTX ,Excalibur 2, Sea Hunter Mark 2, Equinox top machines
Thanks👍 Equinox doesn’t perform any better, this is a micro thin gold chain, Im posting another vid of the equinox on the same gold chain. Please post a vid of a thin gold chain at 6”, Equinox only hears the small clasp and pendant, just like the CTX, remember this is one of the hardest targets for most machines.
Metal Detecting with CZkidd. Hey Hey the equinox and CTX both struggle on this thin gold chain. The signal repeats only on the small clasp and pendant. The TDI BH pulse delay 10 hears the chain no problem. The Deus will hit this with no problem at depth. If the clasp was missing, along with the pendant this would of been lost forever. Garrett ATX would definitely pick this up also👍👍👍
@@JJJAMES444 That means I gotta do some more testing. I could never get the TDI to hit a chain unless clasp or links were large enough. I could never get it to hit a thin gold chain. Actually went to the beach one time with several sizes of chains and could not get feedback. Almost made me send it in for a check up. Had other TDI BH owners tell me that they walk over alot of chains as they are hard to pickup. Looking forward to your next vid, MD's too.
I hear you ground balance off, pulse delay 10 max sens. there is a break in the threshold. I agree though very tough target for a clean target response. I’m hoping the Fisher AQ will hit this target running at 7 uS. I hope this is the next P.I. beach machine, I’ve also been eyeballing the SDC2300
Good time of day. I am from Russia. Buddy, tell me, I want to buy a 3030 device and I will walk on the sea beach (salt water). On the video I see that the device has a good, clear signal. Your opinion as a user?! Is it worth buying minelab 3030?! I have aquinox 600, but I'm not very happy with it....

@@JJJAMES444 Thanks so much for the sub..I see you have that CTX dialed in!!
Thanks mate ., very interested video.
Thanks for watching have a great day
Another Great Video, Thank you for sharing your knowledge of the CTX 3030. Awesome content! 🍺
Hello thanks for tuning in just wanted to log a VDI vid for the CTX on my channel. Might take the CTX with the 6” coil to an older park.
Thanks James very educational I am still learning the CTX but if you are unsure dig it .
Oh man.... that’s the truth the air test just gives us a more understanding of the machines capabilities. If a target is on edge or near iron, VDI changes drastically. Alright thanks for tuning in
Nice instructive
Thanks for watching
Happy thanks giving my friend. Cool to see the results
Nathaniel Outdoor Adventures Hey Hey Happy Thanksgiving to you also 👍👍👍 thanks for tuning in
Helpful hints for the CTX ma friend.
Hello just logging a VDI vid for the CTX on my channel and for the viewers. I already have 2 TDP’s 😂😂😂 = Thumbs Down People.
If I hav to dig everything I might as well use the 2300
Very true 👍👍👍
I think the Spring in the gold clasp is iron based. Thank goodness or we might miss more thin chains.👍👍👍
Equinox was the only machine I owned that could pick out a chain. Even at high freqs, DEUS struggles.
Frank Mons It could be iron based, sometimes on lower grade gold chains they’ll use that material with plating. Most likely it’s silver with plating, the beach is full of chains that will never be found. Let’s stick with the chunky gold rings👍👍👍
Metal Detecting with CZkidd. Equinox struggles on this thin gold chain also, Garrett ATX, TDI BH will hit this with ease, no clasp or pendant👍👍
Thanks for the video. I've not got a ctx in the collection (never say never), but I'm now a bit more savy on the vdi front. atb neil
Hopefully one day, one of my favorite machines great for parks/beaches. 👍👍👍 thanks for tuning in
Just to know id can u share sharp setting for all goods you have..
Hello thanks for watching I don’t have any settings that I use. I’m always changing and configuring for the soil /beach conditions
Interesting video! Happy thanksgiving !
Marilyn Groves Hello Happy Thanksgiving I hope everything went exceptionally well for you. This year 2020 was a complete blur thanks for tuning in have a great day.
Good day, Friend 🤝🤝🇺🇸🤝🇷🇺🤝🤝 Happy New Year, Merry Christmas 🤝🙏🤩 You can share with your stx3030 settings for the beach 🙏🙏🙏🙏
I just use the stock programs, in manual sensitivity
@@JJJAMES444 🤝🤝🤝🤝🤝🤝🙏🙏🙏👍👍👍👍👍👍
Interesting video. It will be nice to see you using the Fisher Impulse AQ when you receive one.
Stay Safe
👍👍👍 let’s hope they send the machine out soon, they haven’t produced very many. I’ve been in the waiting list for 2 months. They are set to release in April 2021. GL&HH
Happy Thanksgiving James, to you and your Family.
Thats why you have to dig it all, Right. Take care

Alan Tan Hello thanks for tuning in Happy Thanksgiving
Yo bro, how can i set up the ctx3030 for a deep underground chest with gold
Phone working out nice. Mic pickup is good. Nice vid and test
Thanks I’m still testing out the iPhone 12 Pro Max, it ran real smooth through Final Cut Pro X editing software. I still have to mess around with advanced auto focus. This might be a great camera since it has the ability to record in Dolby Vision. Alright have a great day good luck on your side Happy Thanksgiving.
@@JJJAMES444 Thx J. Same to u and the family.
Metal Detecting with CZkidd. 👍👍👍
So why are pieces of aluminum and copper producing numbers like gold? I was under the impression that the ctx 3030 was more discriminatory.
Great video..That one helped alot..Thanks
Hello thanks man….. I have another video coming up soon. I will compare bottlecraps with the CTX and NOX. Another sub giveaway coming up soon
@@JJJAMES444 Thanks JJ......Awesome them bottlecraps are deceiving...Sweet!!
ok i have a ctx3030, but my bottle cap come up as 106 to 108.00. why is your different from mine
I’m not sure bottle caps read in all different ranges depends on the rust and shape. Also different modes will change the VDI. Thanks for watching have a great day

Relic mode works great, goes deep also. If you run a right disc, one can focus more on gold. Pinpoint in sizing might give more info

What is the maximum distance to detect the gold under ground?
Depends on the size, shape, and ground mineralization. Pulse Induction is the way to go for gold
What do you put over the face of your ctx
john twite Hello I had an old iPad with a ZAGG shield, just traced the outside of the CTX LCD housing, cut with exacto blade👍👍👍
Nice video, greetings from italy :)

I know D. That equi is good on the chains. Chain was chopped up pretty good though and turned out to be junker. Happy Thanksgiving D.

What's up, James! Excellent finds bro. If you don't mind me asking, what was that blue stone on that gold ring? (19:11)
Hello thanks for checking out the vid, I’m. It even sure what kind of stone. If I take the ring to a jeweler I’ll try to get some info, 👍👍👍
interesting
