Just returned from Ooltewah Tennessee, and man that is the worst mineralization I have ever found, anywhere! I tuned my XS many different ways to no avail, even tried ferrous tone and constant was blasting all the time. Everytime I got within 3 inches of the ground, my machine would null out and couldn't even get a peep out of it, let alone the penny I dropped on the ground to see if I could hear that..nothing, nada, zilch! So if anything civil war happened in this particular area, forget it. Ooltewah is 21 miles south of Chattanooga, right off I-75 at exit 11. Whilst I did not have the opportunity to check out other areas in this fine state, I will be returning in the near future. My Bro in law is moving to this town and I like y'all's weather. I will be hauling more to his new home before the year is up.........NGE
