    silly question maybe Ace 250

    I have not had my unit open, but I know some of you DIY'ers have, is there perhaps a way to make this unit a "treshold" machine..I find it most annoying that there is no sound at any time unless you hit metal..sometimes I take a coin and wave at the coil just to make sure its still working...I know someone did a similar mod to a Whites (I think) unit.thanks for any input, Tom

    You can add GB and threshold to any Whites Classic models. I have tried to do the same on the Ace 250 with no success.

    When I run into a quiet area as far as signals I just hit the PP button to see if it's working.

    Sell the 250 and buy a GTAx 400. The sell for dirt cheap and you can hear faint threshold. No tones though.
