    Coil choices

I will be getting a 5.3 when money allows after reading all the talk about it. Just a bit unsure on the differences between...

    My new MXT Pro showed up yesterday !!

    :super:Well dang it finally showed up and I felt like a kid at Christmas:clap:. I played a bit with it last night at a local park that I had hit many many times over and still managed to pull out a handful of clad that my old detector missed. I did notice that the MXT seemed a little bit noisier...

    Question on MXT pricing

    I saw a MXT 300 for sale with a whites bullseye II and a gps (not sure why this is included) for $600 and was wondering if this price was an acceptable price for an MXT 300. I have been wanting to join this forum for a while and they are saying this machine is in almost new condition. Any advice...
