Nice work first time out with the Nox 800. The best advice I can give you is for you to put some hours on it, watch videos etc. Maybe a test garden. Mostly...use it and dig. Congrats and good luck out there.

You will love the machine, definitely get some time behind it. I like 5 tones, but I primarily coin shoot and I would also get the 6” coil. Good luck out there!!

Probably some, but its worth the trade off in trashy areas in my opinion. I also like it in the brush/woods as well.

I agree. Get out and enjoy. The Equinox is a great machine. I like 5 tones too.

I run mine wide open and I’ve hit silver dimes at 8” with no problems

I second the suggestion (for trashy areas)... I use the 11 inch coil and in trashy areas after about 2 hours I don't know whether I'm coming or going from all the BeePPPEEEEPbedleeep-ing :laughing7:
I really dig the machine though overall and have recently started using 50 tones. I'll be adjusting some other settings now that I'm accusomed to it.
