[QUOTE="Thomo, post: 534822, member: 17391"] One of the sister inlaws messaged me a couple of nights ago about buying her hubby a detector for his birthday. I asked what her budget was and what David would do with it. She came back with the usual answer " looking for coins and gold" I don't know what her budget is but I've suggested a few detectors in the $1000+/- region. But I'm determined to suggest the best detector for David that his wife can afford. They live at Dulacca Queensland formerly known as woop woop My history with detectors isn't extensive it started in the 80's in Mackay Queensland with a Whites 6000D. Now own a Minelab Xterra 70 and a Fisher 1350. A couple of detectors l suggested were the Minelab etrac and the Garrett AT pro but l know there are many other brands and models in that price bracket that maybe better. It's a minefield out there when looking at detector reviews But keep in mind Dave hasn't had a detector before so something fairly simple will be the go. Any other suggestions are welcome as she hasn't gotten back to me yet [/QUOTE]
