[QUOTE="Twapster, post: 51069, member: 1582"] Have you been able to test your detector on a real piece of gold? Helps to understand how it sounds, what it reads on the screen etc. Try it with a piece of lead if u don't have gold. Got a reality check when I tried a half gram nugget, pinging pull tabs a foot down yet the nugget barely made 3 inches on my Xterra 70. I keep the nugget with me to occasionally test it in the bush to keep me "focussed" on what it sounds like. [/QUOTE]
