    Minelab X-terra 705 General Tips, Advice, Questions

    Had a quick detect today - sometimes Ill hit a target and it will initially read as 32 or so, then when in pinpoint mode the ID can jump around rapidly. Going from 32, to 44, and -8 sometimes too. Im assuming this would just be junk?

    Thanks blackdiamond! Had my first proper detect with a mate on the weekend and 4 hours never flew by so quick! We found our fair share of ring pulls, random metal objects and a number plate of all things! Already looking forward to trip 2

    Hello from SA

    Thanks for the welcome! Through my job I basically get to travel around all of South Australia so do have the opportunity of chucking the detector in the back of the car and trying new places. I also go to the NT about 8-10 times a year so could be a few opportunities to have a look around there.
