G/day XLOOK. Now I understand why you were asking, yes you had to move with the times in those days. The old VLF detectors had their limitations, but found plenty of gold in those earlier days. After the first initial jump up to the SD 2000 PI. Which we thought cost an arm and a leg at the...

Hello XLOOK, Re, your questions about the detector models suited for finding big deep nuggets; over the years there have been a few M/Lab detectors that had a better chance of finding big nuggets in that situation. Here is my take on those models, the first deep PI they made is the SD 2000...

Hi Zac. I made an Aluminium one once, but if it is fixed at the rear of the box, it knocks against your side as you swing. It needs to be clipped at the front section of the control box, and best if it lifts the front up, even by 2" inches. Make the base about 7" inches wide, (across), to...

Hello Zac. That looks great, now your cooking. Another Suggestion is a wider molding across the front legs, have the legs clip into it. The problem you will come across, is your detector tends to tip over on its side. So, a lift-up bracket that extends out wider on the front legs would do it...

Hello Zac. A great piece of engineering there, excellent ideas. One change to the wiring is necessary, the lead from the detector plug to the SPO 1. Is sticking out too far. It needs a right angle fitting. or risks breakage. As it is now, it will be knocked on scrub/trees, or other obstacles...

Hello daveo85. Mate, don't walk away from that one! You have a few options to try out. Try turning your settings down as low as you can. See if you can get a pin-point on the target then. If you can borrow a Pin-pointer, or use another detector, say a GPX 5000, try those. Its signal sounds...

mbasko & Members; Hello members. Nev and myself thank you for the responses of your thoughts to the matter that we all viewed last night. I thought the show only gave a very brief outline on what has actually happened. Heritage Victoria’s decision here, sets a precedent in law that leaves a...

Hello fwdoz: and Members I had Neville Perry ring me last night, and he asked me if I could tell members of Aussie gold forums to watch A Current Affair tonight. He is hoping to get everyone’s opinions of the story tonight, he said he was told that Government Departments will be watching the...

Thank you Members for your responses. Yes it does sound suss to me too. The police would have to think that as well surely. G.H. He has reported the serial number to M/Lab, and detecting shops in Qld. I think if it was me, I would make up a list of all the ones who knew about the 6000 and...
