wow.thanks guys for all the info and PMS too,OK ill be getting an AT Pro week after next,i did get a great price shipped to my door with what ill be needing,i do already have a pin pointer pro which works great,i do have a digger from kellyco which i don't like,but that ll be another issue for later,as for a shovel Ive not made up my mind yet on that too,coil cover ill get and a travel bag will help out,smaller coil has my interest now too as there's a few small parks up here I'm interested in checking out so I'm thinking that ll help for that, OK now as to the gizmo's and a stand?? i do have a swingy thingy that works pretty good for the weight but hadn't thought about the gizmo to push arm cuff back farther,ill check with my friend plugger on this to see if they have anything for this,ill not be chest mounting this machine,i don't think its a help for it??as for a stand?? well Ive not used one on my other machines,i just clean them off when i get back home,you just never know what conditions your gonna get into so I'm not sure a stand would be helpful for me? OK on the headphones?? i do have a set of black widows,and i have a set of peltors my friend Mel Parker made for me that work great too,can i not use these on this machine??i understand the plug is different and these aren't water proof,as I'm not concerned about water proofing them,I'm thinking i can change plug to make work or make an adaptor for this once i see what there using?why or whats wrong with the placement of the headphone jack on the machine??oh another question, would i want a larger coil for this machine?? why or why not would i want there larger one??just full of questions here,I'm gonna get one of these machines before i get an Etrac, I'm sure this will work out great for where I'm wanting to use it,now when i hit the beach well....the EXCAL..its my choice for that condition,not saying i might try this there too??
OK guys ill check back for info
thanks
