    Minelab GPX 4500 information and questions

    Thanks guys. I should of told you I have a Minelab GM1000. My thinking is that I use the GPX and my daughters can use the Monster. That way I can target deeper gold and my daughters can target the fine gold with the Monster.

    Minelab Gold Monster 1000 tips and questions

What you need to remember is that they auto ground balance (when in Auto) So if you swing over the same target long enough it will assume its just part of the ground.
