Bulgaria calling!

[ivconic]

It's been a while since i had several friends in Bulgaria and contacted them on daily bases.
Years have been passed and i lost all my contacts.
In next 20 days i am planing short trip to Bulgaria.
So i will need here detailed informations:
1) Sofia or Montana; where i can find and buy Bulgarian made shafts for metal detectors?
2) Sofia or Montana; where i can find and buy Bulgarian made search coil enclosures for metal detectors?
3) Sofia or Montana; where i can find and buy Bulgarian made kit completes for metal detectors?
4) i need emails, contacts, addresses and phone numbers in Sofia and Montana.
Appreciate any kind of help.
Many thanks in advance!
Infos may be posted here or on my email; [email protected]

George, remove that in off-top section pls. this guy exceeds the limits of what is permitted everything he is touching of.

Main thread name is "Tech Forum".
Here i am asking help in obtaining informations strictly related to "tech", especially the "tech" closely related to these forums and all what we are doing here.
I am guessing; such informations will serve to all of us here equally.
How and where and for what costs to obtain quality made Bulgarian coil&detector enclosures, stems, shafts, small accessory etc...
So by my humble opinion; this topic is on the right place in this thread and on the right forum.
...
KT315 you have your own devils in your head to fight against them, i understand. I don't mind.
No hard feelings.
But would be indeed good for you to chill out for a while and go and ask for professional help somewhere.
That's truly friendly advice.
Cheers!

Try here -> Sell Kit for MD: coil corpus DD27.5sm, corpus for MD, stiks....
and here -> Metal Detector Coil Housing /Shell 280mm/11" DD, 320mm/12.5" DD, 380mm/15" DD, 250mm/9.8" Concentric

I don't where they're located, so it might be Varna; which is a long way from either Sofia or Montana.

Thanks!
I sent pm to Georgi from the first link.
Second link is not having any useful contact reference except online form of message.
And i bet those are from far away, most probably located in deep East of Bulgaria.
So there is no point in contacting them.

I also have to go to Bulgaria, because the alps for a pretty long winter-time are extremly tough for treasure-hunting,
while at Bulgaria it's still warm enough and the ground is not frozen or only at some regions and very short!



About the technical advice:

I would call or mail one of the bulgarian MD-shops and ask for a personal visit if they are close enough to Sofia.

(Notsi is at Varna, from Sofia by plane no problem, I made this trip already)

too bad, Blisstool is a little bit off the road:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slashten


Going directly there at search is another question.
With good enough connections and some bakshish it should be no problem!

Looks that there are estimated 5.000 to 200.000 non-archaeological treasure-hunters around.
Working a little bit careful and everything should be fine!

This statement is cool:

"The treasure hunters are Bulgaria's Taliban. Thanks to them we are the second nation in the world after the Taliban regime in Afghanistan that has been destroying its cultural heritage."

http://www.novinite.com/articles/106...adise.+Or+Hell


The truth is, and this is worldwide the case, that most of the archeologists are just by taxes payed state-imployees
who wanna collect and confiscate in the name of their countries all what they can get but never go searching on
their own !!! While the usual treasure-hunters have to do all the dirt-work and became criminalized.


But this is fully logical because those who have the power always wanna rip of those who are weaker!

There is no difference if you rip of the people by taxes (best example Greece!!!) or if you rob them their personal found stuff!

The "bulgarian taliban" - I must laugh! Hahaha!!!

This is all just evil propaganda of those who wanna steal everything from them who found it!
"This is states property!" Shure, and if I have a strong enough army whole Bulgaria will be my property!

All this crap only leads to: The rich became always richer and the poor ones always poorer! Which is a shame!

Be careful, treasure hunting is not legal on archaeological sites.

Don't bother with these guys (http://www.notsi.com/). They are "notoriously" famous with overpriced goods, bad warranty services, etc.

Mirkon is Varna company i think, far from Sofia and Montana http://mikronbg.com/products.html

For coil shells -> there are 2-3 manufacturers really... all of the rest just resell their stuff.
I recently bought from [email protected] and I think he has a shop around Montana so you might want to try contacting him.

Thanks folks!
Funfinder those are mostly distant places, situated on the very East of the country.
Like i said; it will be short trip. Don't have much time nor funds to stay there that much.
Going to Montana suits me better, but if i must i will go to Sofia too.
Day is short, so i would like to know exact addresses and go directly there, no to waste time too much.
Yes Eclipse, i heard earlier about that man, most probably i will visit him too.
That's about coil enclosures.
What about detector housings and shafts?
Earlier, several years ago; Montana was the place where all the hobby stuff was manufactured, what is the situation now?
I lost contacts. Because i haven't work much on detectors in last 2 years.

thx eclipse for the info. Usually I'm a pretty cooperative person and don't wanna disturb restricted sites etc.
Seen from the temperature perhaps I will start around Golden Sands, Sunny Beach, Varna to Nesebar - Black Sea coast -
lost stuff from tourists etc. - but not only - I also like the wilderness as long as there are not too dangerous animals.


ivconic, as far i know there is a MD-shop at Sofia - if it still exists -but do they also have the parts you want?
If they repair this stuff there they might have alot spare components or even broken MDs for a very low price.
Contacting private persons is a good idea - they also might ask around in forums or call there friends if they
know anyone close to Montana or around Sofia or some other larger cities nearby.
And I would ask directly around in Montana - its not so big - if someone knows about the old metal-detector parts
producting people - perhaps starting at the museum or at the house of the mayor.
btw. you can visit the old fortress of Montana. Good luck!

That explains a lot to me.
I noticed, where ever is some ancient property located, from medium or higher objective interest and meaning; usually there also grows interest and knowledge towards metal detecting technology too.
Usually there you can see md kraft growing. (Soko Grad for example)
Yes i contacted private persons and made some arrangements. Mostly thanks to friend Georgi , who supplied my with infos and details.
I plan short trip there. Soon.

Here's a virtual walk around the Soko Grad fortress - looks interesting:

At Varna (BG) they found 5000 year old tombs while digging a trench for water pipes -
now Notsi and Mikron are there! Bulgaria and Turkey has alot MD producing company activity -
also many antique sites.

At Greece some MD producers (but too much crazy LRL-activity is going on there)
including alot stuff to be found.

Serbia also has very old history and therefore good MD supply:

In earlier times metal-detectors was a technology for military use only! Very sad.

Meanwhile we can hunt all over Europe and even at Russia and Ukraine and nobody
cares, as long as we respect a bit the laws and the local customs and traditions!
Or as long as the local authorities are on our side or don't know anything!
And if there are not too dangerous war-remainings.
