As an engineer, the shape of it will force it down on the bottom instead of floating upward. It would create down force like the wing on an Indy/F1 car. Don't know if that's good in a real rocky area though...

Thank you for this Sir! Very nice information. 👍👍

Thanks for this excellent thread! Very helpful and interesting.

Yes! Steve's Rods are simply amazing quality and very well thought out. I was in on the first wave and was blown away at the workmanship. I have the antenna wire through the shaft and it works perfect. I did the dual setup right away with mine. Cheers and HH!

The only thing is the GTAX requires 8 batteries compared to the new detectors and they lasted half as long in the field. The 550 still works great though and was ahead of it's time back in the day.

I have a GTAX 550 that I bring out once in a while.

I have found similar beach sites that were Beer party Heaven Bonfire spots with melted blobs of melted beer cans everywhere.

I have been using the Predator tools Raptor for years and it's the best shovel for New England woods. 👍👍 Nice Hunt!!

Nice hunt and post. Good stuff.

I go detecting to get away from phones and all the daily life stuff. I leave that all behind when I turn on my machine. The same goes for my motorcycle riding.

I was lucky to be on the list for the first batch from Steve. Perfect is all I have to say!

I am currently using the Grey Ghost XP compatible headphones that accept the WS6 Puck. I am LOVING them especially when it's chilly outside. The sound quality is excellent.

Great reply! Gary Blackwell stated in one of his videos that the "General" program is best for wetter ground,

Don't know about the WS6 Master. The antenna is just an insulated wire. It has been demonstrated that using any wire at all accomplishes the same thing. I happen to like the design of the factory clips instead of Duct Tape.

Thank you! I will look that up. I already noticed you can pull the end with the slots right off. You should be able to slide it back on to a cut down wire. Thank you again.
