Been detecting seriously for a year now and experimenting with different detectors. So far my favorites are this qxt pro and a tesoro deleon. I read some old posts by critterhuter about setting up the qxt pro. So my dad gave me a $75 quantum II for Christmas and I gave him a DFX I hadn't tried yet. Sent the unit in to White's to be updated to a QXT pro. Yesterday was my first hunt with the unit, it still has the 7.8 coil on it. I found a small gold band and lots of clad. It is so quick to recover from target to target. I've also been using a CZ 70 and just don't feel confident in it's ID as it seems 50/50 on coins and old iron. With the QXT I could call dime, quarter, and on the ring it read foil small ring and for some reason I felt it was going to be something good. Funny thing is the only 2 gold rings I've found are with a 2.5 khz (1280x) and this 6.5 khz machine. When I say it was a small ring it was one of those rings made for a baby, like an ear ring.
I've heard some say the qxt can go deep. I've got the coin program set, sensitivity up, noise reduction off. Anyone know if it still ID's at depth? Working on getting a 9.5" coil, but if anyone knows how it responds at fringe depths on silver I would sure appreciate it. If I like the qxt should I consider an XLT?
thanks!
