[QUOTE="Goldpick, post: 113477, member: 1695"] The ID is also displayed on the small handgrip LCD, but those switches look ancient, they could certainly be improved upon. It is packed with some good features, and depth is pretty impressive (see you tube clips), but as usual, the ultimate test would be in Australian mineralised soils vs US and Euro soils to see whether it is a viable proposition. The pricing though seems on the money, considering the supplied accessories and search coils - $1600 here compared to $1400US in the states. Buy a current brand 15kHz gold vlf with two extra coils, and you would be looking at a similar amount, if not more. An Australian test would go a long way to support sales here. Steve's reviews are very thorough and honest, but ultimately don't represent real world performance in Australian conditions, which at times can be horrendous for a gold vlf. :) [/QUOTE]
