[QUOTE="burkenotwills, post: 108258, member: 3963"] Hi everyone, Starting to think the 705 was not a wise choice to find gold after reading a lot of things on the forum especially in hot areas. that it is better suited to coin/relic hunting. I have the two standard coils that come with it as the gold pack. Would a different coil change the result in finding gold? If so what would people recommend? Should i just keep experimenting/learning with what i have to get more adept at what the machines/coils capabilities are before getting extra coils? Going for two weeks to Buninyong on the in-laws property to have my first real swing for gold as there are lots of old diggings around. Any suggestions on settings or just start with the pre sets to train my ear to the different targets? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Still a newbie to it all and don't want to let things i have read put me off. I am keen as to learn all i can about the machine before i make any rash decisions. I have watched heaps of video's read lots of things and still think for my budget this was the best purchase for myself. Will post some pics in a few of days to show some of the area i have to play around in. Cheers K.B. :) [/QUOTE]
