New to the Forum

Hi, I'm Anthony.
I'm new to this forum, I've been prospecting since the mid eighties around central Vic, my great great uncle came over
to prospect in central Vic in the early 1800. I currently use ML GP3000 with coiltek 18" DD, GPX4500 with coiltek 18" mono and GPX5000 with coiltek 14" DD.
I like researching the goldfields and like researching lost Treasure in and around Australia.

I'm Planning to MD at and around Dunolly this Wednesday at a few sites.

Hope to see some of you out there. I hope i can help and answer questions on the forum.

Thanks

Welcome Anthony
I see you have a number of detectors. I have a 5000 and only been playing around for a few years. I am interested in maybe buying the 2400 and to 7000.?

How do you decide which one to use and where?

I am a bit scared re the outlay however they do keep their value. ( better than a boat )

Hi Anthony welcome to the forum.

Hi Scott, thanks for the welcome.

I myself have a rule of thumb - 1. i dont go and buy the new model that comes out they always seem to be upgraded soon after. 2. i wait till my detector pays for itself before purchasing
the next model.

I read alot of reviews on the new 7000, it just looks to military for me and the price tag wow!

but thats just me.

Thanks

Thanks for the feedback.
I will be hunting for a while longer for the payoff!!
Maybe next trip !!
Do you use the different detectors based on the area? Our is it just gut feel?
