Who's running a gpz 700

[Mickkat12]

Acquired Recently a gpz

Looking for any links to videos about the sensitivity ect

I'm Finding In deep mode I'm having to turn sensitivity down to 3 as very chatty ... will this be a waste of time ?
Ground is hot in some areas with iron stone
Or is it better to set the mode to difficult ground and chase the smaller stuff ?

Cheers mick

Don't ML dealers run a course/training thing when you buy one of the Zs?

Where are you located?

The comment about using the GPZ that got my attention right away (and no i don't own one, just my research) was from a forum member who stated

"Treat this new 7000 as if it were the 1st ever detector you have picked up, and learn from the bottom up,....this is sooo "unlike" the GPX or SD series....forget what you (think?) you know, and learn THIS detector instead."

So far i haven't seen any posts bashing his advice, especially when followed up from purchase, with a minimum 1x day "training session" or day with a mate who owns one, and like for all of us....time on the ground experimenting (best while detecting, but have an undisturbed, in the ground target to practice on,...there's plenty of those out there.)

Good Luck...

Where do I acquire this ferrite piece ?

 

[Plushy]

My Ferrite piece came in the box with the GPZ. All minelab stockists have the Ferrite piece for sale as far as i know .

 

[Mickkat12]

I bought second hand

[Mickkat12]

I run a GPZ - it took me at 3 months to really get the hang of it and only now am I starting to get results. Largest piece for me is 15.5 gms and smallest is .03gms.

Look at PhaseTechs video link in previous post as well as in this thread https://www.prospectingaustralia.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=11703

First thing get in contact with Minelab & transfer the warranty into your name.

While your at it ask them for a ferrite - they were giving them free to owners.
If you've got the receipt warranty will be all good.

I've seen a few of your vids before. Great work and great gold. Would love to be getting the results you do.
