[QUOTE="GaryO, post: 291489, member: 4018"] Gday Blatto Well i did my training day for the new 4500 last weekend at Hillend . As im experienced using detectors most of the training revolved more around setting up the detector and reading the geology of a goldfield rather than doing a lot of detecting and digging . He set me up with a six inch coil to demonstrate the performance on smaller test pieces and first impressions were pretty amazing compared to my earlier SD machines. His explanations of the various settings made a lot more sense then just reading the manual so im certain that alone will help fastrack my learning curve when im out on my own. I also picked up a few pointers on the best places around the diggings to try plus where gold would unlikely be. Now its done and after the dramma to book it , i definitely feel it was still worthwhile . Its just up to me now to get out there and teach myself the rest through hands on experience :cool: [/QUOTE]
