[QUOTE="HKGTS0, post: 72921, member: 2606"] I have now had two runs with the ATX and of course am still learning to understand the tones that are produced. I am searching in a possible gold producing area, but so far have found a lot of small pieces of wire, lead shot from both rifles and shotguns, and other metallic objects. The biggest scourge has been old aluminium drink cans which have been rotary hoed into very small pieces. Depth of targets has varied down to about 30cm or so. While I am aware this machine is no Minelab GPX, it has shown potential with very clear signals when items have been detected. False "signals" are a problem when the search coil is knocked against twigs and other material even with the coil cover in place. I have yet to use the big mono, as the area I am currently working is pretty confined, and the DD is really a bit to big as well. In June several of us are off to a known gold producing area up north of us. Trevor [/QUOTE]
