hey guys just wondering if you sell any of the rings you find ?.

well ive searched a few beaches and haven't really found much to be honest but maybe its something to do with the settings Im using or something .I also noticed that if I put it on manual sensitivity and put it on 24 it starts going scatty with false signals but again maybe im using it wrong...

yeh I mean it might not go any further but then again it might if there is holes in the machine somewhere else but I don't have one yet so I couldn't say before hand but ive heard of screens just blanking out and all sorts of stuff .the problem is the o ring anything with a o ring or that type...

yeh I mean im still gonna get one as I fear with the etrac the parks in my area are way to trashy .but the thing is with the o ring you cant tell if something is completely sealed unless you place it in a pressurized tank which is used for watches and all sorts of diving equiptment. this is why...

ok so now im kinda leaning towards ctx 3030 cause where I am our parks are very trashy .I rang minelab to try get a honest opinion about the ctx 3030s and all its faults and he admitted it has had a lot of bad press but seemed to blame the customers and said we cant make it stupid proof for all...

ok guys so I decided to get a etrac over a ctx 3030 and after watching a few videos on youtube it seems the ID numbers on the etrac seem to jump around a aweful lot and coming from a xterra im worried how would I accurately id a target if the numbers are jumping all over the screen .my question...

hey bogan thx for your last comment .yeh well the problem is I don't know how they would fix this permanently unless they recall all of them and change the design of the back of the unit and the unfair thing is I was speaking to a guy in u.s last night and they are charging people $25 in store...

hey thx retirement .im realizing that its gonna be a long process and I have to try stay patient with this one .a lot of people have told me its a great machine once you learn how to use it .im a bit disappointed by the ctx 3030 but being a watch technician by trade once I seen that battery pack...

well guys decided on the etrac .I spent several hrs last night searching through forums and skypeing with a few previous owners of the ctx 3030 and the problems that I heard with the unit kinda changed my mind .the leaking problems ,screens dying, o rings having to be brought from a dealer cause...

any of you guys used the deus xp ?.

I probably shouoldnt be surprised tho with these comments about it leaking and stuff .im a watch technician by trade and one thing I have learnt in my time is that its extremely hard to waterproof something ive worked on 20k watches that were supposed to be water proof for 200mtrs and failed...
