[QUOTE="christian1664, post: 255475, member: 7733"] Thanks for all your advice, looks like a lot of the youtube videos are Garrett propaganda which is a shame so what's the story with Warren from NQ explores? I realise he has some connection with Garrett and rates the ATX up there with the 5000 and the videos seam to support this! so is he biased towards the ATX?, mistaken? or at worst bending the facts to increase Garrett sales ? Im not disappointed with purchasing my ATX as I bought it mainly for UK beaches where I must say its outstanding, it handles Emi brilliantly, bare in mind a lot of UK beaches are almost in town lol and you would be surprised on just how mineralised some areas are with lots of hot rocks/coke , often in the form of pottery ! weird I know but its something to-do with the firing process, handles this very well, so the ATX has its place but it doesn't look like its the WA gold fields. I shall swing it for a couple of days just out of shear bloody mindedness as its hard to accept a machine that I do so well with over here is crap in Australia where it was allegedly tested, but the weight of evidence is pilling up on the side of the 5000 Thanks for all your input please Keep it coming, and if anyone needs any advise on detecting in the Uk feel free to contact myself.
