    I have a F75 and a Minelab Equinox. The Etrac is too heavy to swing all day but it is great at old campsites and dumps. I want to metal detect Meteorites and rock hunt. Its been suggested a national forest here in New Mexico. Does any one actually hunt National Forrest? Also is there a reference within claim for meteorite hunting say in New Mexico and Arizona? Last, what is the Equinox with a small coil able to actually find gold nugget wise?

    John,
    There is a lot of interest and people out hunting space rocks everyday. If the USFS that you are looking into allows detecting then Space Rocks are on the table. But do you know where to hunt? In NM the Glorieta strewn field is one of the most popular and very well known for some great meteorites.
    There are a number of books, maps and chatter about Strewn Fields on line.
