[QUOTE="Mystyk59, post: 6213, member: 217"] Hi Jim, No i dont find hotrocks a problem at all, in the sensitive smooth setting it ignores 99.9% of them, and as i said if i do get a signal from one and i get Dale to swing his 5000 over it he will get a signal from it as well but it is very rare i come across one in that setting ! It has to be extremely hot. I get my 4000 running so smooth all you can hear is the threshold,now and again i get a bit of ground noise but like i said it is extremely mineralised here in Tennant. I actually did one patch one evening where everything was just perfect ,( Atmospherics etc ) I actually had my gain up to 15 which is the maximum on the 4000.! Dale has found roughly double the gold i have with his 5000 but some of that is bad judgement on my side where i have taken the wrong side of the patch :( Hope this helps Regards Bill [/QUOTE]
