Hello all, I got out for a bit today and snagged one. It looks like a pork shoulder from one direction. This is typical pocket gold for this area. One side is smooth and the other shows the wear and tear coming down the hill. I was using the new Sun Ray Gold Pro Headphones with the GBPro. One piece for 3.5 dwts, ( dwts is for Shep ), LOL.

Mr. Ray,
My hat is off to you good sir, you got a real winner with that porker! Must be a bit nippy up there so those earphones might just be helping to keep your ears warm, I hope so! What sort of settings were you using and what sort of readings did you have for that nugget?

Thank you for sharing.........63bkpkr

Hey 63, This one did everything it was suppose to do on the GBPro. It was only down about two inches and laying flat. It screamed like trash but the meter banged from 40 to 100. The ferrous bars all went away and the screen number went down to three. Everything I love to see. Thanks, TRINITYAU/RAYMILLS

Great find Ray, I also just picked up some headphones. :D

The tone of the machine seemed to change for me when I put the headphones on, maybe thats what I needed to hear the small stuff.
I have yet to go out as we are pretty busy getting ready to move to Sacramento.
