    Good job! I'm old enough to remember dirt floors even though I never lived in one. I sure hate that I missed the opportunity to work those places now long gone.

    I quickly "walk" the Garrett into the target's real location by simply pressing the button(detune). It's easy. I have to do the same with the TRX to some degree. All in all, I personally find that...

    I jump at the one for $450 if you can handle it, depending on what pinpointer is included. If it was me, I would get the serial number off of the detector first and call Garretts to be sure of it's...

    A quick press of the button ratchets it down for more precise pointing. I don't understand the problem.

    Well, you don't need the 6x10 anymore. Sell that coil. I bought a 10x12SEF lately and except for a backup coil...the 10"D2 Whites coil won't be used here either. I should sell two coils myself.

    Re: Pro pointer makes V3i go nuts

    Why not simply toggle the V3i into Menu mode before laying it down before using the ProPointer? I've done that as standard practice to avoid constant re GB-ing by the V3i, but it quietens the noise...
