Welcome back bill! Let’s go find things and Diggin’! Way to go bill, congratulations! You’ve found a wedding ring, nice job!
Thanks...was a great hunt with the Simplex
I’m learning the simplex+ , I won it and so far it’s a great Detecter. Great finds you got. Thanks for sharing.
I originally got the simplex, in fact, 2 for less than I would have spent for the nox I wanted. Both my wife and I now have machines that work perfectly fine for tot lots and relic. We took them to the beach and did just fine. Hope you continue to learn it. See you next video.
Awesome Mark... It is proving to be a fun machine and wow at a great price for what it does... thank you
Thanks for the hunt
Welcome...thanks for watching
Nice hunt with the simplex! Nice rings…way to go!!!!!
Thanks...was a fun hunt.
Great hunt Bill! Thx for taking us along and congrats on all the rings! 💍
Thank you and it was a fun hunt... much appreciated.
The simplex is a simple to use but killer machine, especially for the money. It won't let you down and is a coin magnet. But don't expect it to be as quiet as your equinox in the wet sand because it's single frequency, but in the dry sand it's awesome. The sp24 coil on there is an ideal combination and one of my favorites. It's the perfect Christine machine! Great hunt!
I totally agree. I am going to get her out to some parks to work the 24 coil. I think she will be super happy with it... thank you very much
Great hunt in 4 parks.. .Thank You again Bill....🤗
Thanks.... Really enjoyed myself and had some interesting finds....
Nice job Bill! Hello to Christine...
Thanks Nora... I will tell her HI
Wowsa!!!! Pull Tab Parks baby!!! Unbelievable!
Congrats on the Tungsten Bill, very cool!!!
Yeah, that happens when you dig every target. You should have seen the can slaw I tossed..... Thanks, nice little ring find.
For the money, it's hard to beat the Simplex. Especially with the SP24 coil. It's all I ever use now.
Have a blessed day!
Thanks... I sure can see why. If your not hunting the surf, this is a perfect detector....
Killin it! The simplex is great in parks. Especially the grass. I love those tungsten rings, but yea they’re always coming in like a penny 😂. In fact a lot of good stuff sounds like a penny on the ‘ol plexer 🤷♂️😆
Yes... I am really diggin this simplex. I am def diggin all targets. thanks
Great hunt, Bill, I love that machine. It is awesome, but it is not a salt water machine. It is single frequency, so it will always be chatty. The best advice I could give you is to take your ground balance to zero, and it will be quieter. I had that machine for a year and then I got the equinox so that I could hunt near the salt water. Hope you have an awesome day!
Thanks...yeah, I am learning and I think I will just let the machines do the jobs they are best at.... NOX in the SURF for me....
Wicked Awesome Hunt.. Killing the Clad. Got some rings what a fun hunt.. Happy Hunting and Keep on swinging and digging.
Thanks... I was really enjoying myself on these grass hunts. I am getting better with the Simplex....turning out to be a better detector than I expected.
@@DigginSoCal The Simplex is probably one of the best at recovery Speed and Separation hands Down. (my opinion) And I do also know it is a silver magnet. When you swing over silver you know You have silver. Best of Luck On your Next Adventure..
@@ohdannyboyjustadiggin Thanks.... looking forward to finding our first silver with it
I really enjoy the heck out my Simplex, the SP24 24 works great for tot lots. Congratulations on the rings
Thanks Norm. I am beginning to really like hunting with the Simplex and especially with the 24....nice
Simplex is good in the grass and sand. I guess Christine is working and cupcake money. Great video Bill.
Yeah... poor thing is working 56 hours a week.... and she is a bear if she does not get enough sleep....lol
Let her know that I miss seeing her
Great find on the tungsten ring!😃🥰
Thanks... very impressed with the Simplex so far
You simply killed it with the Simplex, great job! Glad you enjoyed your finds!!
Thanks Kevin. I really am starting to like this detector. Went back over some gold items again just to refresh my memory. Gonna get some gold with it eventually...
Nice one Bill. I like my simplex pared with the sp24 and it has been solid. Pulled my first half dollar 2005 in park yesterday that rang up quarter. I like running field mode full sensitivity and like hearing the tones with the different metals, and it’s deep. Found gold on penny tones so I have to remind myself not to skip the pennys. Found lots of gold and silver in the beach sand too. My first beach peso was ringing tent stake so I like hearing iron. Thanks Bill for another great hunt 👍🏻
Wow.... sounds like you have the Simplex all figured out. It appears to be a solid detector and I am really liking it thus far.
I am fighting myself as to which machine to invest in. I have an old one I don’t know much about and my husband asked what I want for Christmas, I am leaning towards the Minelab vanquish 440 and am wondering if it’s a good one to start, it’s a decent price and of course I’d need the accessories as well. I love your vids, Christine I miss it when your not there with your sound affects. So If you are doing a give away soon, this ‘ol lady would not be apprised to making a good home for any one at all. Keep diggin!!!
Christine really does like the Vanquish. I think this Simplex gives it a good run for the money. I think we are going to give this one away but I like it so much I am going to buy another one. My guy at Treasure Island Metal detectors said they have a special now and the Simplex comes with a pinpointer. I am gonna check it out for myself because the Garrett causes that interference.
Great video Bill. Looks like you cleaned up on change and pull tabs. You know what they say, "You've got to dig them all. For every 100 pulltabs, you get a gold ring (or a tent stake) ." You're due.
Glad you like the SP24. It's a great little coil.
Yes, the SP24 is awesome and I made the mistake of ignoring pennies at one park and then found the ring... never again...lol.
I have had great success with my Simplex (it's now my backup to my Nox 800) in fields and parks. It also does decent in dry sand away from the water. Where I've never had success with it is in wet and near the water. Which is unfortunate because it's really a great machine at an even better price point. Glad to see you're enjoying it!
Have some patients with the plex, it’s a great machine! Most all the silver rings I’ve dug have been 59-69. And gold rings 19-29. So yeah dig all the trash pennies and nickels. It will surprise you more often than not…. Great video! Keep it up!
Great info...thank you and I went so slow while swinging... I am really liking this detector.
I know that park at 15:21….(B park). I hunted there a couple years ago and annihilated the quarters….I found over 100 quarters in 2 trips. My Dad found at least 50…but no old coins. Congrats, Bill! 👍🏼
It is funny that you recognize all my locations.... I have pulled 3 or 4 rings (blings) out of it as well....
@@DigginSoCal nobody has detected more parks in so cal than I have….for nearly 40 yrs😅
@@captnse Wow.... you probably know them all then.... nice
I wish that Symplex had a 1.5 volume! The Nokta pin pointer I think is about the only one that doesn’t interfere tremendously with that machine, I did the same thing with the mute button constantly with the Garrett carrot Ahhhhh! Nice hunt Bill
I am glad you mentioned the volume...the first bar is to soft and the second bar is too loud. Grrrrr... But I forgot to unmute it less and less as I got more use.... funny and frustrating at the same time.
Awesome hunt Bill 👍🤓. I love the small coil on mine, if you drop sensitivity to one bar it's great for getting between the playground toys n poles. Great hunt👍🤓👍
Great info...thank you and I really had a nice time. Ended up being stopped by several people and chatted a lot which is part of the fun of being out there.
@@DigginSoCal that's great Bill 👍👍
Nice work Bill!
Thank you
That's simplex is an awesome machine. great hunt Bill. thanks for sharing
Thanks. I totally agree. In my opinion, best detector for the price so far
Great hunt Bill! We needed Christine to say beedoo beedoo beedoo. lots of finds. You should bring Buddy hunting with you on a leash.
Hum... it might be easier to put C...wait I can't say that.... OK, gotta collar train buddy....lol
@@DigginSoCal Lol. She would fight it more than Buddy!
I love you two keep em coming 😊
Thank you Alice... much appreciated.
Bill I just got back from using my Simplex. I love it. Just a suggestion though I have a generic pin pointer. If you change your frequency It stops the static that the machine gives off. I do have trouble at the beach in beach mode with my head phones I just turn down them. Ground balancing the machine again in wet sand helps also. Thank you for sticking with it. I work in Sacramento area on weekends would love to get together at some tot lots.
Thanks for the great info.... I get to the Sac area a couple times a year. Not sure when I will be back in that area...but sounds good.
The pulse pointers are great by the way, very powerful.
Outstanding.
Good job on the rings
As always thanks for sharing
Thank you.... had a great hunt for sure.... turning out to be a fun machine.
Good morning Bill stay safe
Thank you... much appreciated
They are very sensitive but accurate for plug making, only thing I don't like is I have to change the frequency to f1 everytime I turn it on, f1 stops the pinpoint squeak
Is this a fake bot?
@@neod4865 Yes.... reported
I have not tried changing the Freq. I am really liking it so far. Will have more of an opinion after a few more hunts.
Great hunt bill.
Thank you
Nice hunt with a different machine, I am partial to the Minelab stuff because they are a lot like the Whites machines I had in the past. I just like the Minelab tones better.
I totally agree about the tones. they are easier on the ears. I also know the VDI on Minelab and that is a real struggle when changing machines but nothing is like a great tone...thanks
Nice hunt Bill 👍
Thanks Ray....
Good hunt bill, I loved the tungsten ring you found. This is the only style ring I wear. I have many colors and many color combinations. Looking forward to the next one. That machine worked really well. Take care.
Thanks Dawn. I think I have about 5-6 tungsten rings so far. They are very nice looking
Awesome hunt Bill. The Simplex seems to be really working out for you
Thanks Tony. I am really impressed with it so far.
A pull tab bonanza 😂...
Thanks for letting me hang out with you....🕊️
Glad you were here.... thank you
Great Hunt. The Simplex was my first machine and I loved it. It's powerful single frequency just lights up everything in parks, tot lots, and dry sand. Honestly, I wouldn't bother trying it in the wet set. It just doesn't have the ability to tune out all the chatter you get from the salt water without muting all the treasure. You need a Nox, Legend, or Deus to deal with salt water and black sand.
Thanks and I totally agree. I have better detectors for the surf so it does not make sense to try. I have a Legend (used) on the way. Looking forward to trying that one too.
Awesome. If you want to come to San Diego. I'd be Happy to give you a tutorial and take to a great beach. I'd even buy Christine a 🧁.
The tweezers might come in useful. A lot of dream squashers. Some cool finds. Those rings were nice. That was a lot of coins
Key to simplex is if it's super bouncy chances are it's crap or aluminum if it's steady VDI and sound good to go usually depending on VDI# as well 30s thru 35 junk all day I've found as well
Great hustle 😊
I've found 4 gold bands from 10k ro 18k at 50 to 55 always dig those brother
That sp24 coil is more stable for beach hunting also , it is a lot more quiet .
Thanks Bobby. I am really impressed with it so far.
Great hunt. I feel its one of the best machines in its price range.
I have to agree. I have tried some cheap ones and wow, this one rocks. Thank you
The Simplex looks like a great detector
I am really enjoying it so far. Gonna keep working with it for a while....
Very awesome finds, great job with the simplex! Boy you surely dug a lot of stuff, all the coins and pull tabs jeez⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Yeah, I get focused when not being distracted lol
😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
Thank you for another awesome video
You are welcome... thanks for watching
@@DigginSoCal my pleasure
Hey Bill . Very cool video and hunt 👍. Awesome clad count. Thanks, and Happy Thanksgiving to you,christine and your families. Gregg
Thank you very much... Happy Thanksgiving to you as well.
I really enjoy simplex videos .... my girl dug a old 1800s hand made silver ring ..and a 1828 silver half dollar.. I found a small diamond platinum ring..and some cool relics...good machine...it will not replace my AT pro but.. my girl like it...got the sp24 on the way !wooooohooooo
Good morning! Really enjoy watching your videos. You do a great job keeping it real and interesting. One thought though ? That is I’ve been watching quite frequently and noticed that most of the time you don’t use a camera mount ? Am in wrong in thinking this and if not why don’t you ?
I find the gopro to heavy for me to use on a hat and I hate the chest mount. I carry it on a tripod and either hold it or use the tripod. I am working on some other options....best is when we are together....
You two both work well together and I get how people always confuse you two as a couple but it is very entertaining. I’ve been metal detecting about 40 years now with my dads machine and my first find was a gold plated wrist watch and I was hooked ever since and of course life gets in the way at times so it’s been off and on but still exciting to do.
@@jimmymendoza730 Wow, you have a lot of experience.... nice way to get hooked. Thanks for sharing
Simplex with the sp24 coil is a coin machine. Its a great metal detector.
I have to agree.... it rocked these hunts for sure
Great rings Bill.
Thank you
Nice finds
Thank you
I know that this coming to you late but Bill I would like to let you to know that eve if you can get it to calm down it will only be at the expence death a least at the wet sand and shallow surff. I It may do better fully surmege in the water I don't know I, sure it will do better in freash water. It is my back up . And a loaner, really good solid detector. Keep it up keep it fun and Happy Hunting 😊👍..
Love the simplex just an Awesome machine !!!!!!
Beedoo Beedoo lol.
LOL... I just can't do it like Christine....
@@DigginSoCal Ha!
Nice videos very nice rings 😮😮😮 good job 👏 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks...was fun hunting the grass.
I think they sell a nokta pinpointer that doesn't interfere with the machine I saw someone elses video and they had the same issue with the interference when using the garrett carrot. Treasure outdoors uses a simplex it is one of his go to machines.
Yes they do. I am going to get one for sure.... I am getting better at hitting the mute button or moving the detector further away when using the Garrett.
New to your channel love all your videos
Oh wow, thank you very much... welcome
Great hunt
Thanks
Looks like the simplex is going to be a good unit
So far so good. I am really thinking the same thing.
Nice hunt ❤
Thank you
Awesome video
65s always a penny 18/19 aluminum can slaw 30/35 nickels 80 is dime 90+ Quarters 50/55 I've found gold ring bands no diamonds yet unfortunately
Thanks for the info.....I will def dig the numbers you recommended regarding the gold bands...
Rings, cars, coins and a penny in a bag. Good hunt. Probably nothing but check the penny out, some kid may have lost their shiny penny but maybe someone had a variety or mint error penny and lost the thing. Anyways, good hunt
Thanks... yeah, I will...the bummer is that it appears to have been hit by a lawn mower....yikes. Def a nice hunt. Really diggin the grass especially now that the beaches are drying up
The dragon you got is called Lapras from Pokemon go.
Yes... thanks.... I have been schooled...lol
Cool cool
Hi Bill Happy Thanksgiving i guess the penny in the little baggie was just a regular penny maybe someones lucky penny .
Thanks and Happy Thanksgiving to you as well... The penny was lucky enough to be hit by a lawnmower...
Hello Bill n Christine
Hi Gregory
You had my laughing man. at 6:04 you find the "Dinosaur". its a Pokemon called lapras. popular with anyone born in the late 80s to current.
Thanks. I obviously had no clue. Lol. Christine and a bunch of people did school me. Lol.
The Dinosaur is actually a Pokemon... it is a Lapras. ( My KIds play )
Your kids huh...hum...lol.. Thanks for the info
hey bill those quarters that get wacked by lawn mower just hammer it flat and put it in vending machine and press return and you get a new quarter . thats what i do lol. my vending machine at work gives out dollar coins so i took all my coin finds and returned it for dollar coins lol. whats funny is after i watched your tiffany find i found a tiffany pendant the next day. hh
Interesting...will have to give it a try... congrats on the pendant...nice.
Can you do a video on how you straighten out your rings please
OK.. the next bent ring I get, I will video it... or I will take one of the trashy rings and bend it and fix it. I use a solid ring measuring rod and work it down the rod...pretty simple. I am sure there are more professional ways.
Be interesting to know if there is a pointer out there that doesn't interfere with the Nokta.
There are and we are trying one out... we shall see how it goes.
I'm a beginner looking as thecSimplex. What is the difference with Simplex and Simplex Plus?
I'm finding the Simplex at a cheaper price. This is my reason for asking.
I think it is the same detector with different accessories but would have to double check that
The pin Dinosaur is a pokemon go creature named Lapras.
Thanks Jerry...I am surprised at how many people knew that...lol
If you use a Nokia pulse pointer paired with the simplex, it will automatically mute the simplex when you turn it on.
Thanks... I talked to Michael at Treasure Island Metal Detectors and there is a special now for the holidays and you get a pinpointer with the Simplex... I see another purchase coming...
too bad it was a penny in the bag, not a dime bag LOL🙃😉😊 I hunt with a Simplex and like it. It's my first machine, so as soon as it pays for itself we will see what my next machine will be.
Funny... not really any reason to change machines if it is working for you.... I like it a lot. I am on a waiting list for the Manticore just because I can't help myself.... lol
that's a cool pokemon pin
Nessie the Loch Ness
So I have been told...very cool.
It's from Disney's Pete's Dragon
hum.... I can't tell you how many times I watched that when my kids were small....
Park mode 3-4 sen wireless head phones simple
Thanks... good info...
In grass sand dirt park mode
❤😊🍿
well bill it could be part of a bearing
It almost feels like part of a faucet. hum
Where’s our Christine been?
Unfortunately she is working and working some more.... I am trying to get her out....
HI THEY BILL SUPER COOL CAR'S VEHICLE'S COLLECTION YOU HAVE GOING 👌🤗👍 !? AWESOME JOB HUNT'S GET WELL SOON TO THE BOTH OF YOU TAKE CARE ✝️ Ⓜ️ !?
Thanks... we are getting quite the box full of toys for sure... cheers
@@DigginSoCal HAY THEY HOPEFULLY ALL IS WELL THEY KEEP FROSTY WATCH YOUR 6 TAKE CARE ✝️ Ⓜ️ !?
You wish you were fishing , you are fishing, dirt fishing 😂
LOL... good point. This is the first year I did not get a fishing license...for fish...haha
It a Pokémon pin
Geter Dug
It’s weird that the garratt carrot cause’s interference with your simplex. My legend has no interference with the garratt. And I’ve used all frequencies on my legend with the legend sitting next to it with no problem whatsoever
Yeah.... interesting. I do have a Legend coming to try out.... I also have other pinpointers so we will work out the bugs....
Not a Pokémon fan then lol that is a Lapras
I think it was a pokimon
Yes... I have been schooled...lol
So disappointed at 16:36. It was a bee don't. I'll go ahead a remain subscribed though...this time.
I guess I am gonna have to practice. I am no Christine but I will do my best next time...lol. Thanks for giving me another chance.
@@DigginSoCal I don't know either of you, but it seems clear there's only one Christine. Still, your efforts might be hilarious and I wonder if Abraham Lincoln ever used the be-do sound effect? Seems like a good question for historians.
What is the relationship between these two? Anybody? I like their videos and watch them a lot but that's a nagging question I always have.
Friends
@@DigginSoCal 🤔 If That's the case.....Ask Christine if she'll Marry Me!!! 😍🤗😘!!!!!
Stop buying this brand .I’m not sure the quality is not good or I’m just bad luck . Mine stop working after digging for 4 times . The worst thing is the poor after service. There is only one guy who’s in charge in the service. How and How long it’s going to be fixed all depending on his mood.Mine detector started not working in June . Until now July 28 it’s still not fixed.
Bill you have someone sending people requests to talk on Telegram
Yeah... I just reported and deleted them all....grrrrr
@@DigginSoCal I don’t like it when bad people do this to nice people like you guys
I also have a Simplex. Wouldn't consider any other machine.
