[QUOTE="KIM-MARGARET, post: 137950, member: 1311"] Hi Beany My first detector was the gold bug pro still have it I have found with it make sure you do some testing with old bits of metal I would discriminate out anything under 35 from memory I would get a reading of about 40 and over on gold dig everything over 40 low sound for junk high pitch for gold Other thing that can be a bit touchy is your gain if your in hot rock country or noisy soil watch your signal on the left bottom corner this indicates your soil if its high you you may try to back your gain off a bit Most important of all on the middle of the screen as your detecting that number and your ground balance number should be as close to the same as possible other wise your ground balance will be out and noisy. Work in all metal mode with gain at 3 oclock as I said if noisy back it down if your in good soil go full main thing discriminate the rubbish out. I have found some nice gold with mine but really struggled in noisy ground. Good Luck Margaret [/QUOTE]
