    CTX 3030 and Gold Monster 1000

    Im heading up Georgetown way soon. Do not want to get into the new GPX 6000 or GPZ 7000 yet and besides that I do not live close to a gold region. I currently own a CTX 3030. I read recently about the guy (Maccatuna) on this website who is having success with very small gold using the Monster up...

    Heatho's Equinox Madness 2018

    Heatho, I see that as far as discrimination goes the Equinox has a three star rating and the CTX a five star one. Do you agree?

    Of course you have the pinpointer on the 3030 as well. Is it too inaccurate for you? If that is the case does the hand held one put your right in the zone of the object?

    My seal is red. Checked Miners Den if they are selling them but theirs are the old ones as well. You would think they would be selling the ones that actually work. http://www.minersden.com.au/minelab-ctx-3030-seal-kit-3-seals-2-headphone-lugs

    CTX madness 2017

    Heatho, what percentage increase do you think your bigger coil has given you. Tricky question I know, but you may be able to come up with a guesstimate. My son saw a guy, about waist deep in the ocean, detecting the other day. Do you do the same? Is it true the 3030 is 100% waterproof and...

    CTX madness 2017

    Thanks Heatho. Think you are on the money with mineralisation; exactly as you described it. Sand was shallow and sitting on a clay base. FE and CO numbers dancing around a lot. I did not sip the water to see if it was salty but I just read it is home to rays and flathead which means it must be...

    Also I was getting some weird numbers up when detecting by the edge of a lake the other day. What was causing that?

    Heatho, when you are detecting on the beach and digging for a target do you just lay your detector on the sand? Do you use ear muffs or external sound? When I have my wife to do the digging it is easy but I find it more complicated when I am by myself. Gary

    CTX 3030 Initiation

    Is it okay to engrave detectors? I once engraved a camera and when it developed problems, Camera House blamed the engraving.

    CTX 3030 Initiation

    Thanks heaps Heatho. You could get a job at Miners Den or Minelab explaining things to rookies like me, anyday. Gary.
