[QUOTE="The Green Wanderer, post: 27609, member: 784"] I have a similar detector, probably from the same manufacturer by the looks of things. Has the same handle/ arm rest design with the same plastics and a similar coil. Even has the same font on the box and almost the same wording in the manual. Mines branded as a Maxkon Gc1010 though and is a digital display instead of the balance/ sensitivity knobs. So far its been average, reasonable depth (about 8 inches) and good sensitivity to targets its yet to find me any valuables other than 3x 5cent pieces and a 3gram fishing sinker. On the other hand it locks straight onto stubby tops, nails and aluminium can tabs :| Picks up the signal off gold and silver well, think I just need more practice with the settings yet. Not bad for the princely sum of $80 AUD. :o [/QUOTE]
