[QUOTE="Robert Le Mal, post: 63676, member: 2546"] Hi Rob, I am very new to this, I think Goldpick mentioned the X-terra 305 previously. It's my first machine so I can't compare to it anything else but I was happy with the price ($400) and I like the whistles and bells in terms of figures on the display, 3 tones and an indication of depth. The depth indicator isn't always spot on but having 3 tones is good since I am starting to understand what might be below the coil just by the noises I get as I swing. My only source of disappointment is using it on wet sand and that's when the falsing is mental, and yes I have tried lowering the sensitivity. For parks & dry sand I am very happy - I found plenty of gold coins and now I'm starting to find predecimal silver coins (getting better at spotting older parks). Good luck and let us know what you get and how it works for you. The 'Other' Robert :-) [/QUOTE]
