[QUOTE="Daz, post: 117630, member: 4196"] Hi everyone I've decided to get myself a PI detector, I currently have a Whites GMT but want the extra depth so I can strike it rich and retire (I'm joking in case you didn't pick up on it). I've been reading on this forum and GGT about the F1A4, I've also recently bought Jack Langes dvds, great watching. Ideally I'd like to buy a F1 unmodded and get Woody to mod it for me, I think he offers a 5 year warranty on his mods (correct me if I'm wrong) whereas Jack Lange only offers a 1 year warranty. It doesn't appear as though Woody sells them but I figured if there was an issue with one I bought from him or had modded ( I'm thinking years down the track here ) there'd be no dramas packing it off for repairs, seems a bit rude getting him to repair one if he didn't do the original work on it. I want to run large coils to pick up the big uns. I'm not sure whether to look around for an unmodded Minelab, say a Extreme or 3500 and get it modded (even though they seem to work well with big coils on anyway, I could get one and save up while using it in the meantime) or get the already modded Jack Lange detector, it seems there are no unmodded F1's around or at least they're very rare. I'm leaning slightly to getting Jacks, thus saving on getting a Extreme/3500 modded and putting the extra $'s towards a good coil. I also like the fact people are saying they seem to run quieter. What are your thoughts and opinions fellow diggers? I'd appreciate your advice. Thanks in advance D [/QUOTE]
