Sad to put the at pro on the bench, I got a lot of good use out of her. Now is time to use her as a loaner for any guests that want to try out relic hunting. Just splurged on the Nox 800. I spent this weekend combing over some pounded areas I’ve been hitting lately. I still have a ton to learn and I know it’s only going to get better. The little double heart is not stamped but it really says silver to me, but I haven’t tested it. I found it in the middle of several holes around a tree base.

Congrats on your new detector, and the finds you made with it.

Thanks Tre. Im already seeing improvement in depth. Nothing major, but a few of the targets had me impressed. Pretty easy to swing too. The at pro wasn’t hard to swing, but I just live the feel of the equinox. I can wait for the weather to warm up so I can make sure she’s sealed properly.

Been using the Nox 800 since release, didn't really think too much of it to start with but I put in the hours and we're now best friends.
For me field 1 is the best...more stable than field 2. Don't trust the vdi on deep targets it will lie...dig them all! Hope you get lots of great finds with it[emoji106]

Nice finds. Love the bullets, and finding a Mercury is still a thrill. I broke down and bought the Equinox back in October. I really liked the AT Pro, and had some great finds with it. However, I like the enhanced capabilities and flexibility of the 800. Still feel like I have abandoned an old friend though sometimes...oh well.
