[QUOTE="rapta7, post: 134225, member: 3256"] Hi fellas I also have the f1a4 with the JL modifications...I am very pleased with the buy..have found gold ...altho nothing huge....This machine is very quiet in highly mineralized soils of WA and near power lines . I find using this machine with the 11in commander mono is pretty deadly...I was not happy with the earphones so I purchased a $200 dollar set which made a huge difference as my hearing in right ear is around 60%. I use timings on 2 and switch to medium size targets as a rule. It is very easy to ground balance with the button on handle. I discovered a fault not long after I purchased (I have had the machine for approx. 12 months now) I wasn't receiving a signal...sent it in to get fixed and they found a fault with the flexi lead from the coil .....fixed it at no cost and now she purrs like a kitten. Just the 1 hangup...it is very heavy when using the bigger coils so you need the bungee cord from detector to harness...and carry the control box on your belt..the pouch supplied flops around a bit so modify it to fit snuggly Carry a spare set of batteries ....it will start warbling when your batteries run low...about 6 to 7 hours . I hope that has been a help......cya later [/QUOTE]
