GT arrived Today

[Tin Fin]

My "new" used GT arrived today; now I just have to get a couple additional coils - between this and the excal, I will be set pretty well for a variety of circumstances. And I have been doing my homework via history of come family land - with very interesting results that I hope to be able to present via photos within a few months some of it is "classic" hunting, some of it isn't, but it's all interesting. I've been working at learning the excal - and will be learning the GT now too. I'm an itching for it now....

mwnci - for now, dig everything; it's probably the best way to learn the sounds and meter. I try to determine what the item is before digging, and then prove it to myself by digging. The sounds are confusing at first, but it won't take long for you to start to make the connections to the sounds and the items. Aluminum and Gold though - I dig a lot of aluminum because it can sound so close to gold (size and shape of target, and coil speed over the target all make a difference it seems). Stick with it, it will come - it will take some time, as I'm finding out, but it will come. Best of luck,

HH,

Yeah OBN, it's just about the best kind of fever I've ever had. But I'm in it for the duration too.
