[QUOTE="Cuckoowaif, post: 76488, member: 1887"] Hi Mudguts , I had my unmodified F1A4 on the beach up at The Entrance on the weekend , and ran into another swinger with an AT Gold ..... so , out of interest I found a good signal in the sand and called him over to compare . My machine told me ( just using sound ) that there was something under the sand .... his machine ( using sound and his hi tech screen with discrimination ) that there was something under the sand , probably a precious metal , 20 cm down ( more info than I had at my disposal ! ) .... but in the end I still had to dig a hole ! 20 cm deep was an accurate prediction , but it turned out to be an aluminium can ! So where is the benefit in different machines ? I don't know , but if you enjoy digging holes and finding buried teasure , buy yourself a metal detector . Steve . P.S. Last time I saw him , his finds value was 25 cents , mine was $1 . [/QUOTE]
