[QUOTE="Lesgold, post: 440621, member: 9840"] Hi Luckyreid, I agree with Heatho and Northeast. The NOX will find you gold if you keep at it. Dont try to compare it to the SDC or you will be disappointed. Ive found that the 800 is chirpy in mineralised ground and sometimes you just have to put up with some of the noise. Dropping the sensitivity will help but it already has limitations in relation to depth on smaller pieces. If you want to focus on the NOX, I would suggest leaving the SDC at home. This forces you into a situation where you have to play with settings and experiment a little more. After about a dozen trips into my local goldfields comparing the SDC and NOX, I got to a point where the Equinox wasnt even being turned on as it was missing far to much gold in relation to what the SDC was finding. Good luck with your play time. It is a very good machine. Cheers Les [/QUOTE]
