Pinged a few on a trip to the GT :) 14x9 Evo on the 5k works well Happy Days!

Thanks Muk that's all I needed to know. Just wasn't sure about the National park rules for camping. Junk goes with the hobby mate, I could start a junkyard with the crap I've dug up....... :|

Thanks for the info guys. Much appreciated :)

Thanks John, Had a look at my Doug Stone map and it doesn't say there's any no go areas as far as I can see. I found the dedicated camping areas but was more interested in finding out if I have to use them or if I can camp anywhere. I free camp mostly with solar setup and pretty well self...

Hi all, Just after a bit of advice from Bendigo locals. Will be heading down for a week or so of detecting and will be camping in the camper which is set up well. I usually camp in the bush away from camping areas and other people - much quieter that way. I haven't been in that area before and...

I don't go anywhere up bush without the Garmin Etrex 30 nowadays :)

Might have some luck around the old mullock heaps, but it is mostly deep ground so not sure if you'd get the depth with the sdc.......I swing a 5k with 15 x 12
