      This is past the point of a dream. If I just could find one that would be a dream come true. I had a cleaners years ago I went to. He had a cellar under the cleaners and he would lay his keys on top of a beam over his head. One day he run his hand up there looking for his keys but to his surprise he found some gold coins. He had no way of knowing where they came from are how long they had been there.

      I don't remember where are now long ago this was but a guy was dredging and moved a rock to find gold coins under it.

      Years back I read a story in True Treasure about a robbery in New Mexico and two guys went looking for it. They found it and it was over 3 hundred silver dollars. I read the story the same time they did but  like I said they found it.

      The first detector I had came from a kit I got 66. Now I can't say it work great but it did work. The next one was from White's and it was a BFO but a great detector for the time.

      Like said a picture is worth a thousand works. Some things I don't like about the SDC 2300 and it's not out yet. The ATX at first I said I was going to buy one but now I'm almost to the point of saying  no to it.

     Two things with the SDC 2300 I don't like. The first is the fixed coil ( hard wired ). The second is way the coil is off set from the shaft. .May be a third and that's the C battery power.

     The ATX would be better to have a carbon fiber shaft. I just don't like that plastic shaft at all and the cost to change from one coil to another is too much.

     The one thing I like about both is the case and the straight shaft.

  3. If Minelab is as said over stock then take the fixed price off the GPX 5000. Let each dealer say how much profit they want. I know now some dealers are willing to do that now but if founded out they won't have a Minelab dealership anymore.

     You said something about just maybe getting the Sierra Pulse Pro well is your thinking still going that way?? If you do will you please let me know what you think of it. If can I may try and get one. That 3 pound PI sounds good for the money.

      I had just looked at Minelab site yesterday and seen the pro pack. I didn't know that was something new that Minelab was offering. If you could get this package plus the package like Rob offers then you may have hit gold without going out.

     Now could it be that Minelab got a soft heart or the GPX 5000 has reach it's saturation point. Just maybe Minelab needs to move the 5000 to make room for the 5500. I guess you could say that's a 6000 dollar question.

  5. Hey Steve

     My thinking was that Jimmy and White's were blood  brothers but I guess that's not the case. I know on my first TDI if it hadn't been for Jimmy I may have still been sending back to White's to get fixed. It was on it's way for the third time and Jimmy called White's. That call done the trick and here came my new TDI. Another thing Jimmy done for me was he gave me the small Digger coil for my trouble.

     Jimmy's site says the sale in Ca. Ut . Nv. and  Az. in person in store only. Me as a customer should be able to call any dealer of White's and order the SPP. I can learn more on the net about TDI SL being it's the big brother to the SPP than most dealers know other than Digger Bob.

      If they got more than two they need to sell be it  White's are Jimmy they need to give the whole US a shot at it.

       The funny thing on White's site they say the TDI Pro is out of stock but others say they can get it for me.

     Only the powers that be know!
