$5 metal detector

[Mars]

Recently bought a Ultra GTA500 in good working condition for $5.00 US ---- yes, you see it correctly -- $5.00 (even incl. batteries!) The owner decided he din't want it any more. I think that's a pretty darn good deal!

Does anyone know where I can download a schematic diagram/service manual for that model? The user manual is pretty sparse with info.

You can probably get one direct from Garrett.

They won't give you a schematic drawing, but you can get the service manual.

That was definitely treasure found. $5.00 beats the one I saw a couple of weeks ago, $20.00 at an antique store. It was one of those stores that people sell on consignment. It looked new still in the box. I didn't put much thought into it at the time because my son was hanging all over me wanting to get out of there.

I'm sure you will have that machine paid off with finds in no time. Twenty quarters and it's paid for. Wow!!!

Good luck with it. I've never had a 500 but I've heard they are a good machine.
