Nightjar. Great link, thanks

Thanks for the suggestions, will sort something out. NJ parts are too scattered for that.

And where to get clips if available.

Has anyone replaced the front plastic clips on the front of the belt section? Some boofhead stepped on his & broke one side.

Don't forget to run the detector over the mound.

From my perspective, Westerners thought in straight lines & right angles, leases were mostly square or rectangle plots, housing in cities were planned with right angles, squares & rectangles, that was the mindset. Chinese, on the other hand, were around thinking stuff up when our ancestors were...

I also will put in a plug for the D-Max, I have a 2013 & only thing that's dropped it's bundle is aftermarket shocks & aftermarket springs, all operator error.

Check out Solar Flares which can affect the internet coming from satellites more than we imagine, most know very little how the Sun Spots & flares stuff up satellites with electro-magnetic waves, I'm in NSW & had spotty internet 3-4 days ago & sure enough we got hit by a flare around the 25th...

No gold, no silver, no treasure, a dirty old minelab exterra for a split second, but, what was interesting was finding signs of ancient Britons, gotta look past ya luv fer gold! :P

Google 'gold monster 1000 hot rocks' Australia seems to be hot rock central, just gotta turn it down, not ideal but it is what it is, this is where the 2300 shines, A piece of small test gold in a bag helps a lot, just throw it down when it's showing conflicting squawks, at the end of the day...

Another option is to join an orienteering club to learn the ropes, Paddy Pallin or Kathmandu might know clubs in your area or just google it, without knowing your exact aims like walking & panning/detecting an area, driving into an area, bit hard to advise, even if you just take your GPS & walk...

I just got one from miners den, hope the sales price doesn't signify a new model coming out!

Is this surface digging or excavator digging with no excavator?

Get one of those hand weights from a gym store & while your watching TV hold it out in front of you like holding the detector, start with the ads then rest. You can walk around the yard also & gradually build up the weight.

Australia is full of idiots that have never been subject to any form of discipline & think the world revolves around them, your word, honour or doing the right thing is something very foreign to them, it's all about them, don't let them get you down, their not worth --------(enter own...

Just to be clearer, I have a 2300 & 5000, I got this lying around, Soooo off to work with it!

Sure, but it's what I got & I'm using it for crevices only.

Yep DD, $175, I'm into harebrained schemes so will go on my 70 for sniffing around crevices in all-metal, don't really need super depth.

I got a 6" 18.75kHz coil for my x-terra 70 from New England Instrument Company & noticed on their web site a good selection of other kHz coils & sizes for the x-terra & other older minelab detectors, might be worth a look if you have older minelabs.

On the phasetechnical.com.au blog section Nenad has a 'how to get the best from the sdc2300' write up, give it a read, very handy. but some days emi is over the top, I had my 2300 squawking at a storm front 80km away.
