    New Member From Central Alabama

    Hey everyone my name is Steve from the Prattville/Montgomery/Millbrook area of Alabama.
    Just recently got into detecting and just recently got an E-Trac.
    Am working on getting some experience with the machine.
    If you know of some good public sites around here just shoot me a message.

    Welcome to the forum and the hobby...from southern Nevada.

    ET is a great machine. There are plenty of folks here that use them.
    I've traveled a long way, and many of the roads weren't paved.

    You are in the right place, with a great machine... I'm looking forward to your posts. :->
    As the others mentioned, there are lots of very experienced hunters here swinging the E-trac. Throw out some
    questions... they'll get answered.

    Hi Canman from southern Mississipp. You have a great machine, just lean the basics and do a lot of swinging. Montgomery is a fairly large city, so there should be plenty of parks for you to work in. If you just want to have some fun go to one of your local schools and dig the clad.
