Hello to everyone on this wonderful site.
I just wanted to take a moment to introduce myself and say hello. Being born and raised literally next door to the Chickamauga and Chattanooga National Military Park, I spent much of my childhood metal detecting, digging for bottles at old dump sites and hunting for arrowheads with my grandfather. Although it has been 25 years since I have had my hands on a metal detector, the urge to find treasure has never left me.
I have lived all over the US and a couple of foreign countries, following my job wherever it took me, but I am finally back home, where I belong. I have spent the past couple of days, since joining, browsing the forums and reading about all the exciting finds and camaraderie here at TN.
I don't want to be too long winded, but I am in the market for a metal detector. I enjoy exploring around this area, but have a love of the beach and treasure hunting there as well. Any and all suggestions, as to type, brand, make, model etc. would be most welcome. I look forward to getting to know each and every one of you and can't wait to hear all the good, bad and ugly about which metal detector I should buy!
Many thanks!
