The max delta mine outside of Phoenix, is most definitely not the place to hunt, your first time. Soooooo much garbage from years and years of mining and drinking beer (judging from the number of beer caps). Amazing how sensitive the AT Max is ... it picked up some very tiny stuff. Found a couple of old buildings that must have burned down, tons of nails. Most definitely need some lessons on using this detector.

There are many videos on the max its easy to learn the notch out feature is awesome iron audio is helpful but depending where you are dig everything is a good motto with any detector. I lived in Mesa and Phoenix I wish I was detecting then.

Yes, the notch settings were very helpful, as well as the iron discrimination. Love the wireless headset.
