[QUOTE="TTKooAu, post: 90559, member: 1600"] Update. I met up with Condor22 at Mt Crawford on Monday. We had a pleasant morning detecting up the eastern side of Watts Gully. Again no gold, but it was good to get some tips from him about my technique and the set-up of the lead to the control box. We also set up some small samples of lead shot and small gold to test the sensitivity. It was a bit like David and Goliath, Condor22 was testing a new 8" on his 5000 and I was waving my GMZ around. Still I was able to see the limitations I am faced with. I discovered two things. 1. I need more patience. 2. I want a 5000 :lol: Condor22 took off at lunchtime, and I gave a new sluice I had made a run. I won't know the success of it until I pan off the concentrates over the weekend. [/QUOTE]
