[QUOTE="grubstake, post: 669333, member: 4012"] The amusing part about the above model schedule is that with time and experience, all of these detectors have earned a place in the prospector's armoury, but only after copping pretty heavy criticism upon release: GPX5000 - too soon after GPX4500; too expensive with too few enhancements SDC2300 - expensive and clunky, with poor ergonomics; pointless chasing flysh1t GPZ7000 - outrageously expensive; too heavy; no good in saline conditions GM1000 - noisy; no good in mineralised ground; flimsy construction GPX6000 - expensive and pointless, with other models already doing the same; flimsy construction Geez, we're a hard-to-please bunch! :) [/QUOTE]
