[QUOTE="WalnLiz, post: 140348, member: 147"] Your friend won't have Woodys latest mod, as he has only just completed it. I'm pretty sure the detector I will be using will be one of the first with the new frequency mod pot fitted. I, like yourself, have not gone down the mod track as the 5000 with the correct timings set up, and knowledge of the many ways they can be tweeked has proven deadly. The new kid on the block, with it's hefty price tag, has changed my view slightly and if a modded 5000 can produce similar or better results it's got my interest. I like to use the sharpest tool in the shed out prospecting, but I also like versatility and value for my hard earned cash. I personally won't be laying out for a 7000 unless "totally" convinced that it's at least 20% better than the 5000. Pictures of nuggets found with the 7000 do absolutely nothing for me...similarly reports and pics from trade associated people. I can post lots of recent pics of small sub grammers, and well over once pieces with the 5000....so what....that will not sway a serious operator. :/ [/QUOTE]
