WHO HAS

[BOWSER]

A metal detector that can make the transition from dry beach sand to low tide water line detecting on salt water beaches without having issues.

The M6 can, and since the MXT has pretty much the same Ground Tracking, it should be able to also.

[Indy!]

Yah, I use the M6 in that situation, using the beach mode. The only thing I have to do is turn down the SENS a little when it hits the salt water to avoid the overload screech.

[russellt]

the V will do it if you turn on the autotrac on and leave the gain about 10.. you have to get a good initial ground balance though.. thumbsup01

My Beach Hunter I.D. works great for finding the coins and jewelry on the beach or in the water. It's a dual frequency with the same frequencies as the DFX.

[BOWSER]

what i was looking for as answer was a mid priced non whites detector that might work well. Since i don't know anything about other brand detectors.thanks for the replys Jim

[Nitro 54]

No problem for my DFX JIM ,,, I would think any multi frequency detector can do the same..

Garrett AT Pro, is mid priced and is water proof up to 10 feet depth. The standard headphones that come with it are not though, but the connector where it screws to the housing is.
It is a water or land detector.

I will have one in a few days.

As along as it is not wet sand the MXT will work, but has some problems with the wet stuff on a beach.

[Vito]

If you'll use only for Land, the Sovereign GT. If you also wanna do some hunting in the water, Excalibur 2. Great and deep machines. Think you will see some good videos about if you google them or if you're using the search-function on YouTube.

Good Luck

I have found the same thing here in Santa Cruz. Love the MXT in the dry, but switch to the PI for wet! Not a bobby pin or bottle cap is safe from the PI!!

How true. But it will find stuff very deep. But it's not for me. May be I'll have a chance to carry out the CZ on a beach this year...
