Different coil material ? Using them 8-10 hours a day weeks on end. The stock cover is softer than some, and the machine is heavy. But mainly just use. I went through two Minelab and one Nugget Finder scuff covers with my GPZs. I like to let the coil ride on the ground. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only wanna spend 4 drink a seven ounce 😜 Don't tell us your finally going to update from the GPX4000 Mungass? 😲 The 6k must be the goods! Bit of tongue in cheek mate. Always gets me on a new release we nearly set the price by speculation & saying what we'd pay. Sometimes I wonder if the majority said bugger that & speculated on a lower price point whether they might hit the shops a bit cheaper. I like keeping the moths in my wallet but will let them loose if it's a goer! 👍 p.s. also don't mind paying $6 for a schooner of good, cold beer either 😋 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ridge Runner Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 If you’re worried about a coil cover you just as well pack it up and go home. I know running your coil 1/4 inch off the ground will save your coil cover and the guy that comes behind you will thank you for leaving him something. This holds true be you coin are nugget hunter.

VicR Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 Found a guys $3000 custom wedding ring last week at the beach - he was in the surf with a shovel and colander digging for his ring(no detector!) that he lost in the water the week before. I found it in about 20 minutes - reward was a hearty hand shake - so maybe i am overcharging Gerry with the hearty handshake and should ask for a vigorous wave. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VicR Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 yes - I've found owners of many a ring over the years. Usually something comes my way. His logic was that he was going to find it anyway with the shovel and colander! 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paradiceau Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 As you highly experienced operators know, the hearing capabilities of different detector operators can vary greatly, I only detected a slight woo weee sound and had to listen several times....... It seems like there should have been much stronger target responses considering the size and depth of the targets. 😉 Cheers, Jeff 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have yet to come across any video that demonstrated the GPX 6K audio. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
