Will not be any updates in forseeable future.
Ute loaded up including onboard fridges and I awake this morning to a total lockdown in Perth/Peel region. No travel for at least 4 days.
Unfortunately with the roof rack fitted the vehicle does not now fit in garage, AND the weather is foul.
Have to take it on the chin and stay safe until lockdown is lifted.

Macka,
The one on the chain was found with my trusty SD2100 only metres apart from a second one in a small creek. A careful search along this creek over following visits brought the tally to 2+ ounces.
The one in this post was found on the bank of another creek with the GPX4500.

Good luck when you do get amongst it :beer:

Found an associated photo related to the find on #post1, took a while to extract the nugget but didn't need both 4500's. layful: :lol:
The tiny creek behind me gave up some more.

Muk,
They were the 16" & 20" Nugget Finders, we no longer own the 4500's moved on to GPZ 7000 and SDC2300.

Gypsyd,
Swung the SD2100 from new for 10 years, that machine used to talk to me after I sat down and got to know it very well. The tuning method I swore by allowed me to use the 18" Mono on 99% of ground here in WA. Had more than one claim that it was impossible to swing the mono in certain areas. Several even rigged up and were astounded how stable it ran. Somewhere on one of forums (think it is the one Kon is moderator, I call it the "yellow forum) the tuning/balancing instructions would be in the archives. We're talking 15/20 years ago. The SD2100 in my opinion was one of Minelabs very best detectors until the GPX4500 and followed by the GPZ7000 came along.
