[QUOTE="Nofind, post: 75781, member: 169"] Hi, Looking for some advice on settings for my GPX4500. As I can't do the real stuff (i.e. look for gold) I am going down to my local river and trying my luck to find as much rubbish I can find.:) I quite often get some real howlers but have got to the point if I can't dig it out of the sand after about 8 inches or so I leave it and move on. I have found bottle tops bullets and nails. Found a pair of underpants as well - not via the detector. I think there is either a lot of metal bits in the sand or the rocks under the sand are sending off these signals. Is this to be expected and/or can some one suggest some good setting for playing around in the sand. Any help appreciated, Richard [/QUOTE]
