First day out with the GPX 5000

Just remember more isn't always good with gain.
By ground balancing your detector has recognised what the surrounding mineralisation is and is looking for changes in this mineralisation. Too much gain is like turning high beam on in the fog, it hightlights everything and will not give a stable threshold.

Cheers BG, I'll keep that in mind :Y:

Hi PMac77,

Settings I use for 5000, pretty much stays the same for all the coils I use.
I turn down the RX gain if I use the bigger coils 14-18 inch.

Note: I use booster amp so target vol 3. Would be higher if I use head set.

Hope these help

Thanks RR,
