New
Format for Newsletter...
Our mailing list grew too large!
Instead of emailing it to everyone on our list, we have decided
to put the newsletter on our website for everyone to enjoy. Now
we will send an email notice with a link to everyone on our
mailing list each time the newsletter is published. This new

Detectorpro
Forum
We now have a new educational information forum
on our website. We have thousands of DetectorPro customers and we
wanted to provide a place where they could ask questions and
talk about their finds with fellow DetectorPro hunters. Just go
to any page on our site and click on the new "info forum"
button under our logo. Non Detectorpro users can use this forum
to ask questions about our products from those already using
them. Uncomplimentary
posts and rude behavior towards others will be not be tolerated
and will be deleted. We want this forum to be
informative, helpful and show others what is being found with
Detectorpro products. Bill Crabtree
of Surfscanner metal detectors will help monitor the
forum. Enjoy!

Product News
Our
newest headphone is the Black
Widow. The feedback we are getting is they are well liked.
They are comfortable and very loud.
Recently we
have had a run on Headhunter
Waders. We have been
getting good reports on how well they also work on land. You can
hunt for hours with no arm fatigue with our Headhunters. The only
complaint is our Headhunter Pi. Reports are you are getting
tired of digging deep holes, but you love the Pi because it goes
deep for gold! Use a Pi on a worked out beach and you will be
surprised how much is still there.
There is
nothing more compact than our Headhunter
Diver. When you have
all of your dive equipment on, you what to be able to hunt with a
powerful underwater detector that is not bulky.
We are
working on some innovative new products, but we can not divulge at
this time what they are. None of our new products will replace
anything we already produce. We are always trying to come up with
innovative products like our logo slogan suggests.
There have been many clones
of our headphones in the past. Some have already gone out of
business and stuck the customer with invalid warranties. There are
also new clones popping up everyday. We have been making
DetectorPro products since 1996. We back up all our warranties. If
you buy a DetectorPro product, we will be here for you.
If haven't already seen our
new Treasure Hunting Mouse
Pads, we think you
will really enjoy owning one. Click here
to visit our CyberStore and choose the mouse pad that right
for your style of hunting... Each has a custom designed image and
quote. |

Archaeological
Dig 2002
Many of you are aware that last year I helped out with an
Archaeological dig in Antigua at Nelsons dockyard in English
harbor. The information and slide
show is on our website. We did the dig again this year. I was
there the first 2 weeks of July and I will eventually put together
another slide show showing some of the finds. I worked one week
with Darin Thompson of Calgary Canada who had been there
the previous 2 weeks. He had been using an airlift, got a couple
of new holes started and found many items. He purchased a Headhunter
Diver to use. He was new at it, but still made many
finds. The 2nd week David Chaplan from Ontario Canada
worked with me. |
| David
used the airlift and I did the detecting. I used a Headhunter
Diver. Again I used the all-metal mode because everything must
come up. We found 3 huge bar shots. I have never seen any that
large before. My favorite find was a butt plate to a pistol and a
brass pestle. We also found coins, buttons, buckles, musketballs, cannonballs,
bottles and many other items. I am hoping next year I can get
everyone coordinated so we can be much more effective. The last
day we had a show and the local Antigun News was there. The
newspaper had a front cover shot of our finds and Dr. Murphy, but
the story wasn’t going to be in until the following Monday. I
left on Sunday and still waiting for my copy!

Gold
Coin Found
The pictured gold coin [below] was found on the
Connecticut/Rhode Island shoreline in 2001. Sandy entered her
coin find at the Best of Northeast Treasure show in Keene, NH.
She won first place for beach finds. The following is an excerpt
from a letter Sandy Crouch sent DetectorPro.
"With our son and
daughter grown and building there own lives, we had more time to
share together. Our best friends encouraged us to try detecting
and join them in New Hampshire where we could see many brands
and buy our first ones. We made an excellent choice and bought
two. Our friends bought two also. |

| The
weight is in the headset and I‘m able to swing my arm
longer… An average of five hours a day. If I slow down and
keep it low my finds increase.
In one
year we have found $700 in change, 80 rings and typical metal
toys and sinkers.
Our kids tease me, but
express as long as I’m careful they’re happy I’m enjoying
myself. One
morning I drove south to work and proceeded to some local
beaches. About 1/2 hour my pager went off… Time to go back. I
showed Steve my finds and he literally grabbed out of my hand
something. He asked the owner there... Who went on the computer
to get some information. Turns out it was a 1907 2-1/2 Dollar
Gold Piece. Wow.
A coin dealer made many
calculations and would not release it from his grasp and offered
me $100. I said no. The bragging rights are priceless to me.
I wear
a 1950’s topaz ring I found to show people young and old. Yes
I do find things. I am very happy with my DetectorPro. I brag
for you.
Stop and say hello if you
see us on the beach."

[Congratulations Sandy Keep up the good hunting!] |
