    Question about using Quattro on beach

    Using the Quattro on South Florida Beaches

    I just purchased a used Quattro with 8" and 10.5" coil for an incredible price. I cannot wait to use it. I am an MXT and Silver UMax user to date. The MXT does great on both wet and dry sand if you know how to tweak it. The Silver does well in dry sand but not so well in the wet sand. My...

    Questions about using a Shooter Coil on Beach and MXT on beach in general

    Early Morning Beach Hunt reminded my why I love this hobby

    I got out early this morning and went to South Beach to do some detecting before work. I was using my MXT with the 6x10, gave the Spider 12 a break. I got there about 6:15 am and the beach was empty, not a soul in sight. The sun slowly came up and it was quite a sight. I watched the sun rise...
