New ATP owner!! Finally

[Flanaganj25]

Friday my ATP finally made it to my doorstep. Bought last one from detector depot. Great company and friendly people. Took a week and every day waiting was torture! I started this hobby 8 months ago with a whites coinmaster. For the money it's been a great machine. Best find being a 1892 barber dime at 6.5". I live in washington state and due to rain I've been wanting a m/d that can handle rain. And ATP was my answer. Yesterday took it out in the rain for maybe a hour and tried to get used to the differences. Today I plan on putting in more time once life stops putting obsticles in my way! Have found some coins and a set of keys so far. It's a machine I'm gonna love but it's sure different from the whites I'm used to. Anyone starting out like me on this machine I'd recommend watching the online videos that Garrett has posted! It helps out a lot and read the manual a few times! Anyone with helpful EXTRA info, please feel free to pass them along. Im hungry for info! H/H

Good choice.
Once you pick up its language you'll do great.

Thank you for the VDI thread info. I'm gonna check it out right now. Today was the first true outing and strictly ran pro mode with iron audio on. What a trip. I already posted my finds for today but what I'm happy about is that I'm already starting to "hear" what's masked in the iron strewn ground! Pulled out a old silver ring that was missed by me and others a dozen times! Sooo crazy. It stood out like a sore thumb. This m/d is amazing. All my old spots I've beat to death are NEW now and I can't wait to hit them all again! At first I was intimidated by pro mode and iron audio but gave it some time and quickly started catching on.

Sounds like you're a quick study! No better compliment to a detector than pulling treasure out of a pounded site!! Congratulations.

Funny, as I have had the ATP for over a year and just now started using Iron Audio. I haven't had a need really as I had a full cache of spots to hunt last year. But, man, Iron Audio truly is amazing of iron infested areas. I couldn't believe how much of a difference it is to find coins in those areas!
