Whites GMT

White's GMT

Just picked up a White's GMT detector, but am a total noob when it comes to detecting. I have been watching some of the videos on this machine and am getting an idea of what I'm in for. What advice would you to a guy like me who is getting started? I am using it to evaluate a very dry gold claim I have, but am hoping for nuggets in other areas too.

Thanks in Advance!

Read the manual, then read it again. There are numerous reviews on the internet to read also that can give you a few tips and hints. Other than that just get it out into the field as often as possible and just play with it. You'll soon discover what makes it tick.

Join a club and/or hunt with someone with a similar machine will help also. Nothing like comparing notes in the field with an experienced nugget hunter to get you on the right track.

Thanks for the tips! I have had it out twice now and have had some success. My first discovery was a zipper and the next was a smashed xmas bulb. Today I was able to get almost a dollar in change out of the beach. I dont have a very qualified opinion, but this detector is sure easy to use. I also enjoyed the manual ground balance, but not before I checked out the auto track first. Lots of garbage to sort, but its a bit of fun. Looking forward to getting it up to the gold claim now.
