    Minelab SD2200 tips, settings, questions

    Thanks but he is really a goanna detectorist, more interested in artefacts, but as he s going to WA I want to give him a slightly better chance of getting some yellow stuff with my co-ords . So prob just a new battery will do him.

    Minelab SD2200 tips, settings, questions

    I have a friend with a 2200, anyone with advice for him please on recommended settings. He is heading WA and wants to do a bit of swinging. I ave a few co-ords for him, but I stayed with my 2100 before going onto and finishing up with the Gpx 4500... missed the 2200 and 2300. Would appreciate...

    A pair of hand helds were compulsory for me and the wife whilst detecting in WA, usually a couple of kms apart when wildcatting. A little coded message that meant "found some yellow stuff", or even just a call to tucker. Also, great to put on scan when others encroach on your space ...listen in...
