[QUOTE="Heatho, post: 93029, member: 487"] I've found exactly the same in some areas due to hot ground and EMI. I'd keep the 4500 Loamer and just get an SDC, sell both when the new flagship model comes out. SDC is like having a super Fine/Gold timing that works well in the worst conditions. Makes me wonder whether ML tuned out the smallest stuff on the GPX models so you can cover more ground and get bigger Gold, imagine trying to pinpoint and dig the smallest shotgun pellets with an 11" coil or bigger.... it would be pretty difficult. Could have been tuned out to leave room for future detectors to still find Gold also...... The SDC can be really slow going, and will find the tiniest bits of junk but also the tiniest Gold, I'd say it's not much good for covering large areas quickly but for getting Gold in known areas it's great. It pinpoints great also. [/QUOTE]
