Hey earl&patricia, I see that you now show an AT Pro and an ACE 400, guess you now joined the ranks of more than one and hunt in tandem? If so, congrats!

Yes, hope to learn these two and move on to the big boy toys. Have tried to locate people down here by me to go hunting, but no one seems interested. At least no takers. But thats okay. I will figure it all out.

Cool thread, I have a Delta 4000 and thinking of upgrading this spring but not have not decided which one yet, maybe a Tesoro. I'd like to try the "beep and dig" approach, since only relying on the VDI got me frustated ;) CTX or Deus would be my choices but I can't put 2 or 3K $ on a detector.

There are so many different kinds of metal detectors that I have never even seen or heard of.
