[QUOTE="SlickRick, post: 581901, member: 19659"] Hi everyone, first time poster and never metal detected before. Firstly sorry if I've placed this in the wrong forum, there seems to be many places to post. I was drawn to the thought of prospecting from watching The Curse of Oak Island and having researched Australia and been in awe of tales of Pirate Bonito Benito and Queenscliff fable, and a 6 month Victorian lockdown trying to decide whether or not to take a dip I think i have made a decision. I have been looking at the Minelab CTX3030 and because of this forum and some informative posts, also the Equinox 800. I'm thinking the latter after reading many posts and was wondering if anyone had any additional advice for a newbie. If I could get some advice on a pinpointer too it would be greatly appreciated. Lastly has anyone had any dealings with Reeds prospecting in WA as they seem to have a great package deal for the Nox800. I would be using the detector looking for gold in rural area's and along beaches. Many thanks once again and look forward to hearing from you :) Cheers Rick [/QUOTE]
