Sort of reminds me of one of those Faberge eggs.

Interesting design!

I dug up one of those in 2015. I believe it may have came from a jewelry store with the purchase of a pearl ring or necklace. Just a guess of course.

The at pro for me I turn sensitivity down two notches and manually balance see the gb number, than do the same in a few spots and the number will be the same give or take a few then turn sensitivity back up, I will repeat the GB routine if I move to a completely diferent area. Have fun

Nothing wrong with re-tuning from time to time. Can't hurt and the ground can be different from spot to spot. Even in a small yard!

Don't for get to experiment with the 4 frequencies it has too. Sometimes there's overhead wire interference that can be eliminated by finding the best one for the moment.

Learn that machine well!

Congrats!
