AT PRO Upgarde To E-TRAC?

[vabuckhunter]

I have had the AT Pro for about a year now and have found some good stuff but looking to upgrade. I am not impressed with how noisy the Pro is and how hard it is to distinguish deep signals. I have air tested my pro and have not got anywhere close to the results I have seen or read about. I have done my reading on the E Trac and it seems like a great machine but wanted to hear from someone that has used them both before I purchase. Thanks in advance for your comments.

Thats funny, I took mine in the water and it stopped working! Odd! You must have one of those special waterproof ones?

They're all waterproof up to the control housing. If I need something for deeper water, I use the Excalibur and get another 2" in depth over the E-trac. I'm not knocking the ATP. It's a very good all around machine for the money, but, in each phase of detecting, there are better choices. Sure, you may have to pay more but that depth difference can mean the difference between finding that valuable target or not.

^ Great advice. My SE Pro to some real practice, but once the light came on, I love it. FBS detectors are a bit different but I really enjoy it. Don't be scared away.
just be prepared to learn !
