Hello Fellow Treasure Hunters! My name is Rob. I am just now coming back to the hobby after a 30-year break. I just purchased a White's MXT All Pro in March and so far, unless the machine came defective, it is clear I need some schooling on how to use it. My last detector was a White's Di 6000 that I had great luck with, especially finding silver coins. I much prefer finding old relics and old coins over "pocket change." So much more fun to look in a hole and see that shiny glint of silver!
If anyone in the network would be so kind as to offer some pointers on how to fine tune the MXT All Pro, I would much appreciate it. At this point I'm almost ready to send it back to White's.
Thanks, Rob
