    ⭐ Gold Detecting Show'n Tell

    Hi All, a bit late but these few are from my last trips to Jupiter creek in Adelaide. Was very happy with the 5000 picking up the smallest one (.07g ) at about 3 inches. Leaving in the next week or so for WA, so hopefully some more to follow. Goodluck to all for the coming year.

    Bigger / Larger coil information

    Hi All, I dont normally post but have been doing some reading on coils and have read on a few sites that coils over 18" in diameter are actually reaching a point that they do not give a positive return. That is on a GPX, some of the earlier models like the SD seem to benifet from larger coils...

    Detecting with a back issue

    I agree with Geo, i have had a lower back problem for over 30 years and have been in traction in hospital a few times now. I use a harness and bungee on my 5000 which i can use for eight hours in a day with the normal fatigue you would expect after that amount of time. My problems always comes...

    Here's why it's getting more crowded out there ......

    Yes i think 2021 is going to be very congested out there, i see WA has issued 4500 new licences this year alone. Hopefully after that people will realise its far harder than they have been led to believe and will sell me a new in warranty 7000 nice and cheap. :)

    What's members opinion...fake or real ?

    They taught the dogs to find gold, why bother with a detector that cant pick up a nugget at twenty centimetres out of the ground but can pick it up at 40 to 50 centimetres under the ground.

    ⭐ Gold Detecting Show'n Tell

    Sorry guys, had my scales and container with gold taken from my car after a trip to Vic. I have not replaced them yet. I was a little sad but on the other hand my GPX 5000 and SDC2300 did not get taken, so i class myself as extremely lucky. Only went through the glove box and centre console...

    Hi All, have not been out for a very long time. Bought the new Elite 9 inch last week for the 5000 so went out and gave it a whirl this morning. Was extremely pleased to pick up two small pieces at Jupiter Creek with it. Probably about .3 each.
