Well, I'm very happy for you. That wasn't my experience. However, I've done 'another' factory reset and am off to the beach this morning to give it another trot. So time will tell.

Hi Bob, I thought you were here in Oz. Hence I posted the link to the store in Bendigo. Sorry about that. My problems happened at the beach. But the same thing is occurring away from the beach also. I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

Thanks for that Az. I've simmered down a bit after a couple of glasses of red. Have fired of a rather blunt missive to Garrett and will just have to sit back and see what happens. Thanks for the advice.

Having just taken delivery of a brand new Garrett AT Pro, I wish to high heaven I waited until I had the cash to pay for a Nokta. After having spent literally months studying and researching which detector I should get, after getting it and taking it to the beach on Saturday, I'm stunned at the fact it is now falsing so badly you can move it any way you like and it gives low, medium and/or high tones. Did all the factory resets when it was switched on and when it was switched off...to no avail. Being on a pension, every dollar is valuable and I've scrounged, scrimped and saved for a new detector for so long now, and this is what Garrett come up with. Unbelievable. And as it came from the US (I live in Oz), it looks as though I have to go through all the pain and grief of sending it back to the US if I'm to get any satisfaction on having it repaired. However, one thing of which is certain; when it's fixed, it's 'outski' and onto the market and I'll get a new Nokta. Thanks for nothing Garrett. But thanks for a great review, Steve, you've sold me on the Nokta.

Oops! I forgot to add, when you bring an item in from overseas over 1K; you pay tax/duty plus GST. So be aware of that fact. And should you want to buy Garrett products to save; get a Bongo address and bring it in that way. As Garrett have a caveat on there products in the US that dealers are not permitted to ship internationally.

Hi EZ Bob, go here:- http://www.aussiedetectors.com/apps/webstore/products/show/4702898- and talk to Brad, he's got them in his shop in Bendigo.
