    Internet coverage out bush

    Another great feature of the Starlink Roam package is that you can pause the service indefinitely. I recently took advantage of the 30% sale they were offering on the hardware. With the periodic sales you can get the hardware for as little as $329.

    ⭐ Gold Detecting Show'n Tell

    I thought I'd share this video of a buddy finding a 72g specimen on our last trip to WA. Awesome find using the GPX 4500. It started as a very faint dubious signal. The video also includes a comparison of the GPX 6000 that fails to detect the specimen.

    Minelab's next gold machine

    The 7000 with the 19 inch coil is insufferably heavy even when used with the bungy and a hipstick. The package should come with chiropractor sessions;). Not excluding improvements to the weight issue, i'd like to see some iron discrimination capabilities added if possible on a new 7000/8000...
