Hi everyone, Total rookie question…. I just purchased a new pump (Honda GXH50 with Proline HP100 pump). No manual on the pump though. Question is: the hose fitting near the discharge outlet, is this only a priming port or is it duel usage to hook up an actual hose Thank you, Jase

Saying good bye for awhile 396 4
Started by geroldpersonett@gmail.com
Due to some family issues I’m hanging up my metal detectors for a while but just didn’t want to drop off the grid before saying good bye. I have to cancel my LDMA membership as well which also cancels my Lifetime GPAA membership. Being I’m paid up until the end of May I wanted to get this posted as soon as possible. Hopefully next year or so I’ll be able to rejoin and still be able to get out and prospect. I’ll still check out the Form every now and then and see how everyone is doing and see wha...

Claim map 4539 12
Started by richard93yj@gmail.com
Ok so I just joined and was wondering if there is an online user friendly map of all the claims. I see you can search an area online and get claims, but you have to go through every one to figure out where they are. Is there a spot on this site where the claims are mapped out with names so it's easier to search. I plan to spend the next month or two driving from Mammoth Lakes Ca. To Tucson and hitting our claims and doing other prospecting along the way, so just would like a nice user friendl...

Started by gmiller5374@yahoo.com
I am a new LDMA and GPAA member and I have to say this is the one of the most lame forums I have ever seen. There is virtually no new information about claims either GPAA or LDMA. The catalog of information is about worthless as no new information has been published in what appears to be months to mostly years. I want to get started prospecting, but most of the information is out dated or non existent. Why is there so little information for new members As it stands for newbie on the east s...
