I just picked up a used Quattro at a great price and cannot wait until it arrives. What can I expect? It is coming with an 8" coil and a 10.5" coil. I currently use an MXT and Silver UMax and like both detectors a lot, each has its strengths. I am going to be using the Quattro on the beach (wet, dry) and to do some relic hunting. I will of course be testing it out in the back yard to see what if anything the MXT and Silver left behind. Any advice on using the Quattro would be greatly appreciated, I already ordered the "Mastering the Quattro" book.

It has a learning curve, be patient its extremely sensitive

Run the sensitivity around 7 trash on high until you get acquainted with her treat her right listen to what she's saying.

This detector is a step up from the MXT as most run them. Take note that in the wet saltwater sand you may have to lower sensitivity to combat the salt and black sand together.

On this using it in the back yard to see what another detector missed, if you do happen to find a new target it doesn't mean the other detector was a piece of crap, it just means you didn't over lap enough the first time. The target was out of the coils cone shaped field is all.

Sandman, thanks for the advice. I love my MXT and will not be giving it up anytime soon. As for the backyard issue, I should have properly stated to see what I missed! It is not the detector's fault when Items are misses it is usually the operator!
Best regards.
