I personally wouldnt recommend the X.L.T.,however.........many years ago I seen a pan of very large nuggets that an old timer had under the seat of his truck.A couple of years ago I was talking to his grandson about the gold and where he found it(I knew where which did no good as a mining company has since came in and strip mined it)I was shocked to hear the old man had found it all with a X.L.T.!Remember I said it was all big gold,even a Radio Shack detector will find big shallow gold though.

I've took a Eagle Spectrum to the gold claims, (basically close to a XLT minus some features ) I worked with it for a few hours and put it away, it didn't inspire confidence. The XLT doesn't effectively pickup the small gold, it's designed more towards finding high conductivity metal. Great coinshooter, however not an effective nuggetshooter. If you don't want to spend too much I'd recommend a Goldmaster 2 Vsat or above.

You need too join the SPMA they are out of san diego and they will put you on gold. I am a member. If you become a member then we can go hit the club claims. I use the claims every month. But you need to be a member. Here is the app link http://f1.grp.yahoofs.com/v1/EAgHSi...E-CWoNh0vAxRndsUJObXBB-n/Membership/SPMA1.pdf


As far as the XLT most of the guys here know where I stand on detectors so I am not going to give advice. (Minelab)
