AT pro on the way

[dogpound]

after reading reviews, askin fellow AT owners questions(thank you all) and calling dealers, i took the leap and ordered the AT pro yesterday. i intended to wait until nicer weather but figured "happy groundhog day ta me" i hope that groundhog is right and its an early spring cause once the wife see's another detector i might be sleeping outside

Congrats on the AT Pro ......Tell the wife that you thought it might be a nice idea for you guys to go detecting together, and you heard that this was an good hobby to enjoy with your wife .....How can she be mad when you are including her in your hobby !!..... ......Jim

How about the price on this machine is going up $100 in March and it's a hot ticket !!!...You bought it before the increase so that you can find more jewelry for her !!...... ....Jim

Congrats on the AT PRO.

All you will have to do is bring home a nice ring for your wife. That will put you back into a warm bed and clean sheets like the wedding ring did.

got the AT today, coil connection and headphone connection took a min or two but wasn't as bad as i expected for a waterproof connection. fired the AT up in the house and it was very stable with no falsing issues ran thru the modes and really liked the tones in pro mode also the iron audio was very clear and noticable. i thought the AT was balanced well and didn't notice the detector being coil heavy, i'm also used to my heavier GTI so the AT was a welcomed change. recovery speed was very fast and ID'ed the quarter and penny i tossed on the rug very well dispite the nails that are under the rug in the flooring. the only changes i would make to the machine would be a larger display screen, the number ID seemed fine but the notch ID and pinpointing scale were on the small side compaired to my GTI. also the cord on the headphones could be a little longer but once the 1/4 inch headphone adapter comes out that will easily correct that problem. all in all i'm very pleased with the over all package and know this machine will work great. now i'm just waitin for the snow ta melt

Was also looking at the AT Pro for a fathers day gift, sounds like an all around good machine..... Thanks for the post, will be easier to make a decision now!

Congrats on the new AT Pro. Your going to love it even more once you get it outside finding stuff.

I, too, have the AT Pro on order. Actually, I'll pick it up this week (after I pull my finances together). I have a feeling that we're both gonna like the machine — since I've read and heard some great things about it on CoinShootingOnline (my local forum). So, I'm eager to put my hands on it!
