[QUOTE="polky, post: 265051, member: 1447"] Hi fellas, good to meet up with ya Dave. Been swingin the 45 for 8mths and done ok. Read the manual and watch JP vid to understand the settings eg. enhance, general,deep and so on. Ya need the 45 to run stable,and continous hum,but also good sensetivity and depth. Start with FP, then over a few weeks play with ya gain and stab. I find 4digits between gain/stab works best for me. Morning night i run 14/10, rest of day 12/8 or 10/6. Yes i run high end gain when i can, also use B and Z booster which i find helps to high lite changes in hum,to indicate target. The best advice given to me by a mate with 30yrs detecting exp was, first target dont rush to dig, use target to play with ya machine, adjust gain and stab to highest settins while keepin 45 stable. The higher the gain in relation to ya other settings gives better depth and sensetivity,also audio tune and ground balancing are a must. I personally found the 14elite and 15NF on par, the NF i think seems to be more stronger in construction,performance equal. Thanks for the use of the NF Dave. Polky [/QUOTE]
