Been several years since I seriously metal detected. Last year, I did try a PI machine and just hated it...
I have experience with Sovereigns and Excalibur, but I'm blown away by the features of the CTX 3030.
For health reasons I need the exercise. Also need a hobby. I'm looking to get back into metal detecting.
Based on past experience, likely 80% of my use would be on the beach and surf zone. Maybe 15% submerged in wait/chest deep water. Throw in 5% for park and relic hunting.
My concerns are the problems related to leaking. Is there a way to wrap more protection around the seal?
Are the stock headphones usable or should I consider an upgrade? Which model?
