Hi, getting a Equinox for bday on weekend. Have been panning and sluicing in my younger years quite a bit around the foothills of the Barringtons, bit of detecting around the old mines and boilers, keen to get back into it now with a young fella to teach. No real gold found just heaps of specks and small rubies. Great site and forum. Hopefully can contribute soon. Heading to Mudgee and Dubbo area in 3 weeks and hopefully the Equinox and I can sneak out a few times between family outings. Thanks
