Hey Don, Welcome aboard from western MA. My first bit of advice is to be patient, dig neat holes and enjoy your time out. The rest will come when you spend some time digging and learning what your machine is telling you :yes: Good luck and happy hunting. It is an amazing hobby.

Glad to see another Illinoisan here. The AT Pro is a very popular and well-respected machine, you should do well with it.
