[QUOTE="Hawkear, post: 674616, member: 4728"] Would agree that there is heaps to learn about the 5000. Operators, including me, need to spend much more time more time understanding the effects that timings and audio controls and systems have on target signal recognition. When I got my first 5000, I was guilty after finding a few bits of gold saying to myself that’s good enough and basically didn’t change much in the way of settings at all for a long time, so long as i continued to find gold. After some spells with a 7000 and 2300 and with gold seemingly much harder to come by, I am paying a lot more attention to settings on my new 5000. I now carry some graded weights from 0.1 to around 3 grams with me so I can experiment with settings whenever heading off for a longer prospecting trip. [/QUOTE]
