How awesome is it that XP gave us all the sweet new functionality that V3.0 has to offer, in a simple and quick download and they didn't even charge us anything for it?!?!
XP listened to us, took our feedback and gave us what we asked for. The download was smooth and easy and the new functionality is sweet. Now, I have not hunted with it yet but I have spent the last few hours playing around with the machine and I like some of the new features/programs.
Some things I already like are:
- The Gold Field program #10 - (I will be playing with this a lot in some coming tests. There might be more uses to this than I previously thought, with some tweaks of course)
- The Full Tones function
- The ability to store more programs and custom programs without overwriting others
- Target normalizing across frequencies
- The removal of bottle tops with Silencer set @4. I think a LOT of people will be THRILLED with this new function
Some other things I am looking forward to:
- The promise of a new 11" coil. This one might just be it. I love the big coil, as many of you already know but for general purpose hunting, the 11" might just be the ticket. I can't wait for this one to come out so I can put it to the test! I also hope that XP comes out with some other sizes/designs (concentric??). I would love to see a large concentric coil and a small DD trash coil. Now where is that 11" one already?!?!
Anyway, this post does not have much information and I apologize for that, however, I hope to be putting V3.0/the 11" coil through a LOT of testing this summer and will be providing as much feedback as possible.
I hope the update went smoothly for all of you and please share what your favorite new features are.
THANK YOU XP!
