I like those in-the-ground shots, your CTX is serving you well!

The CTX is doing a marvelous job. If I had one 'druther', I would druther it be a bit faster, or somehow take the good signals and hold on to them for a bit longer. If I could 'sweep' like the ATPro, I think I could cover a lot more ground and find more big stuff. On a normal sweep it just doesn't hear many signals, or it doesn't 'audio' them. If I take about 4 to 8 seconds per left to right sweep, I hear everything there and then I can 'wiggle' around the target to check it out. Maybe I just don't have something on that should be on, or off! I was telling Mark that I am about ready to start some small changes to see if it makes a good difference. Like 'Fast', and "Deep".

If you went any faster, the silver price would plunge You might try a few hunts with recovery "fast" on. Or try hunting in "high trash" setting.

It is in High trash, fast and deep on, manual sens at about 24-28, ferrous-coin, pin point and trace.
