Minelab X-Terra50

[CodyCat Borat]

Hi everybody. Just bought my second machine last week, an X-terra50. So far so good. Had to get a bit used to the ground balance controls at first because of the soil content in my area. I like to hunt with the sensitivity on 15. This way I can hear almost everything. Already found one silver ring and about $5.00 in assorted coins, plus a lot of junk. Seems that gold registers a 12 as do nickles and pulltabs, although they jump from 12/15/9.
If anybody owns an X-terra50 and has any tips or advice, I'm all ears.
Thanks again and happy hunting.
C.C.

hi Codycat,
welcome to TNet! I have an x-50 which I love. Findmall's minelab forum is more active than the one over here - I "hang out" here, but go there if looking for tips or more technical info. Here are some good links to check out:
