Thanks again man. You're a life saver. I was wondering where I could get the Manual. Thanks again for all the tips it's been very helpful.

I actually read this article the other day and just couldn't remember where I found it. I guess I found out where. Thank you for sharing. I am printing it now to keep on hand while out in the field .

Yeah man, I hear you with the crazy CA. These politicians really destoyred the state I love and grew up in . We are very close to AZ and have looked at making trip but my wife and her work cannot leave. Another 10 yrs and we are good. Thanks for the tips

Thank you so much. This probably sounds like a stupid question but the disc function is an automatic feature for detecting ferrous and non-ferrous plus automatic sensitivity adjustment? I notice that at one right before max sensitivity the center goes black, (auto sensitivity? Then full sensitivity with center blacked out is what? Thanks for all the help..

Hello All, I am an absolute greenhorn... I just bought the Gold Monster 1000 on plans to test ground and do some prospecting.. I live in Southern California desert, where a lot of gold has been found by past and current gold operations. Our land is I believe quite mineralized and there is a lot of granite. My friend an I ran one quart bag of soil of an area and came out with some nice flecks of gold. This was a blind test but tomorrow I am taking the GM 1000 out to the same area to do some more testing. Planning on running the GM on some washes and rocky gravely areas to take some sample for the sluice. If I find some granite or bedrock I will plan on running the GM over it and seeing if I can find a nuggets. My question is do I use the large or small coil? From my understanding the small coil will be more useful for finding small flecks? Is the small coil more sensitive or just more of a concentrated read? Should I use the discriminatory function or not? I guess I am just asking for some guidance and I am open to all conversations and willing/excited to learn this new hobby at age 45 yrs old. One of my friends made a comment saying, 'Dude your not 80 yr".. I like to learn all aspects of everything. So being this age I feel I have years to learn from you all, hopefully. Thanks again and happy hunting...
