I assembled the machine and installed the alkaline battery pack with fresh batteries, charging the other. Sync'd the wireless module and plugged in my Pro Gold's. Wireless module works flawlessly and with no delay. Pro Gold's will not shut off the CTX speaker as expected from previous reports, no biggy.
The CTX is as described, very well built and a balance like no other machine. I like the looks of the carbon fibre shaft, it looks bulky and tough bet very light. I took the machine out in the yard and turned on target trace and target trace pinpoint and roamed the yard a little until I dug a zinc penny next to the driveway. The CTX is very sensitive to targets and gives a quick signal response. I thought my yard was relatively clean but the CTX tells a different story.
I didn't find it difficult to run through the settings and options or make changes. I loaded a beach program I made in XChange 2 to the CTX without much delay, it just took me a minute to get it done. As said, your program will be added and updated when you unplug it from the USB cable.
I would like to get out and dig some targets but, I've gotta go make the highways safe tonight, instead of detecting I'll be wrapped in a bullet proof vest and strapped to my Glock. No intentions of testing one of them or using the other.
The CTX is what I expected in appearance and I believe the performance will be even better than it looks.
I need a day off already but 5 more to go.
