    Welcome to the forum!

    As Tana said, you are doing great! The ACE250 is a good detector. I have used it as have many others on this forum. Looking forward to seeing your finds!

    Welcome to the forum from southern Nevada.

    The 250 is a nice machine, and it sounds like you've got it figured out already. We love pics here.
    I've traveled a long way, and many of the roads weren't paved.
