Quattro at the Beack

I finally got to PCB yesterday. Came to the library to check my email and thought while I was here would post about the Quattro. Let me say this first...." I am amazed" I went to the water's edge and hit the noice cancel... it did it's thing.. and it ran as quite as any machine that I have ever used in wet sand or salt water....not only that but I fould coins that other people had walked over at a depth of 6" to 12"+. At that depth, I couldn't keep up with the waves as it washed the sand back in. I gave up on some signs that were just in wet sand because they were so deep. Too, when the ID said it was a coin, it was a coin, when depth became an issue, the ID would move around in the coin section. Even at extreme depths, it was correct. I
assure you that none of this is hype.. Yes I'm a dealer but not a Minelab dealer so I have nothing to gain. Minelab needs to water proof this machine and market it.... I have a new
White's Beach Hunter ID that I am going to give a whirl today. I can only hope it does as well.
Best to all and every thing you Quattro owners said about this machine on the beach, is true...

And to think, people wonder why I say a "back hoe" is needed for the Beach with a Quattro!

I too wish it could become their next waterproofed detector!
 
I hear you man...it is amazing at the beach. And you didn't say where you were running the sensitivity. It does very well in Auto but after getting to know the machine, I always used it at manual 17 or 18 and at that setting, targets of 18" plus are the norm.
 
Man,l can feel your excitement here and enthusiasiam. I totally agree. What a machine. I also agree that they need to either waterproof it or sell a waterproof box. I'm trying to come up with something on that, and may have an idea, but I need to work it out. Pretty tough since it can't be hip mounted as is.
 
Yes, the Quattro is amazing on coinage at the beach.

Just don't expect it to detect the real fine chains etc. You can increase your chances by opening up the Ferrous Points, particularly the -3.
