[QUOTE="mbasko, post: 480055, member: 4485"] I use both but mainly fixed. In fixed you [u]should[/u] get better sensitivity & depth. Being in fixed can also help you to get an indication of where/when the ground changes. With the quick track button it's a simple process to re-ground balance regularly & most get into the habit of doing it easily. If your going over an area where you've previously found gold then you should be going slow & carefully so fixed is the best option IMO. I use tracking in ground that I'm finding is requiring a lot of re-balancing or where I want to go a bit quicker - at a loss of a bit of sensitivity + depth you can gain a bit of speed over new areas. Good for patch hunting etc. Just remember while in tracking to hold in the quick track button or flick into fixed if you think you have a faint signal to check it. Auto Tracking can balance some small/faint signals out but by using the correct process it won't happen :Y: [/QUOTE]
