[QUOTE="DeckyDan, post: 168938, member: 5630"] I have the gold pack and I set mine up at home in a test garden and it's easy to use and setup But the minute I'm around gold baring soils mine goes off like crazy in prospecting then in coin mode it jumps all over the place -8 10 12 25 30 32 36 38 40 44 48, I lower sensitivity, I slow down my sweep speed, try beach mode, adjust threshold, ground balance... It is a brilliant machine on coins but I am really starting to question it's gold prospecting abilities.. Had a fellow put a gold nugget about 8mm x 5mm x 1.5mm on the ground and would only beep up to 3 inches max away in prospecting and 1 inch in coin mode, was very disheartening to me after that. But like I said best thing ever made for park coins! [/QUOTE]
