Best advice with any Minelab is SLOW you swig speed way way down. They have to be swung slow. If you learn this and LISTEN to the tones you will catch on quick. People get caught up in looking for certain #'s before they dig. AUDIO AUDIO AUDIO!

+1!
Go slow!
Getting a copy of the Safari & Quattro Handbook would be a good idea too.
Go slow!
