    Thanks, I've watched many a YouTube in the lead up to this and haven't heard one like this. Feeling better to know it isn't completely out of the box strange

    Minelab SD2000 tips, settings, questions

    Hi all, New to this portion of the forum having been a pan and shovel man up till now. Finally found what I thought was a great buy for an SD2000 and jumped in It's with me now and it's had a hard life in WA, as a bonus it had already had the crystal mod performed - however the switch knob is...
