FIRST, I want to say thank you for any advice you guys can offer, and apologize if this has been previously discussed.
I am going to be purchasing a PI machine and it has come down to the ATX and the White's Dual Field. I know they both have their positive and negatives, but am having a tough time deciding if the extra $1500 is worth it for an ATX. My biggest concern is the cams on the ATX, as it seems like they gather sand EASY and it can be near impossible to get all of it out. Is there a fix or workaround? I know that the sand can tear into the shafts pretty quick if you are not careful. I like to keep my machines looking good for resale down the road, and now wondering if that is even possible with this sand issue. This will be my first PI and I already own the CTX which works pretty well in the water as well. I have been hearing good things about the Dual Field and that it will work nearly as well as the ATX. Any cons of the Dual Field compared to the ATX, or any advice as to which to choose? Thanks again.
