The SD2100 is a great machine used one for 10 years (standard, not modded) rarely used any coil other than the 18" mono.
Somewhere on one of the forums I put up the tuning method that I mastered. (And it works) That machine talked to me, used it on ground that others said was impossible with a...

Well well, it seems Minelab have revised the unit and are releasing a new version.
Details here.

I've tried finding a comparison site , no luck.
Does anyone know what the differences are and which model you prefer if you have both machines. Thanks.
Scroll down the linked page to see how well the Equinox does on small gold in multi mode. I could imagine it would be even more capable once the small 6" coil is released, guess it depends on how well it handles mineralised ground...
Though I'd start a thread on settings people are using to customise Nox programs.
Ok, today I hit my ol silver honey hole to see if I could find any silvers among the trash, this spot is trashy to the extreme, I did manage to find quite a few pre dec coins. I was using "Park 1". The first 50%...
Hi everyone. I,m looking at buying a new detector and like the look of the Nokta Gold Plus FORS and also the Minelab sdc 2300. I know one is a VLF and the other PI detector but would be grateful for any feedback. I do some coin and relic hunting as well as gold detecting. In about three or so...

There are times for all of us when we wish/hope for things and stuff gets in the way.....a car dies, a baby arrives, sickness occurs.....you know what I mean. Well since Ive been metal detecting Ive always hoped that one day I might own a Minelab. I couldnt afford the $'s in the beginning...

For those who have used both machines. Is the gpz capable of detecting smaller peices of gold than the sdc or does its advantage come with its ground coverage and depth capabilty ?
I am trying to convince myself to buy a waterproof detector next week for my 4 month stay on the Sunshine Coast which starts tomorrow :cool:
I believe that the CTX 3030 will be hard to beat,but I would still like to hear about some other brands also.
I am hoping to get good quality...
Ok so after having a lengthy conv3ersation to the guys at Brisbane Gold (Miners Den Partner) they have shown me the light of ML over the new garret ATX.
What is the best gold specific ML PI that would suit me for around NQ soils, and still be enough investment to last me for quite a few years...
Hi I have a Sovereign xs 2 pro that I haven't used a lot for a few years. It was kept in the UK for use when I visited. A few years ago I bought a Tesoro Tejon to use there as it is much lighter. I have the Sov. here now and thinking of using it again on the beaches and land here. My question is...
Hi everyone,
I just got my first detector today and gave it a shot at the beach before sundown but I was really unsure of the settings I should be using.
I had the sensitivity around 15 and the threshold around 12 and just left it on the preset 1 and it seemed fine for finding lots of...
