Was looking to buy an ATPro until I found a E-Trac for sale, NIB with unbroken seal. The guy got an award from his company and wanted cash not a detector. Made a sweet deal on the price! First run with it was in the backyard. I've swept it in the past with my Tesoro Bandido and a MXT. After 30 minutes 8 digs 7 coins! A couple of the coins were 8"+. I was amazed what I had missed in the past. The learning curve begins and I look forward to it.

Hey, don't get me wrong (I love my ATPro) - but learned a long time ago that the real detecting is knowing what your MD is telling you Lefty59. Enjoy your new puppy.

YES! A metal detector is incapable of lying.... you just have to figure out what it is telling you.... that's called EXPERIENCE! TTC
