Thanks lads - was rather exciting digging up crap, who would have thought?

First real crack with a metal detector in backyard today with an old MXT, found an old piece old copper pipe. At least I can identify, target and dig straight! Notch one up for the killer prospector Tubs:) Big thanks to Ridge Runner for his expert tuition!

He is already my MXT mentor - John is a legend!

Anyone here using an MXT? AM very excited - my first detector!
