Yukonjack

Hello. I am new to the forum. I love Whites products and will probably stay loyal. I currently use a Whites DFX and exclusively hunt farm fields in the spring and fall for relics. I have a chance to buy a V3i with 4 coils for $750. I haven't fully learned the DFX yet so getting the V3i is overkill but I am intrigued by having White's last model. Maybe I should consider a better relic machine considering I won't take advantage of the machine's capabilities. Any suggestions for a great relic machine? I am considering the MXT sport so I can take it into the water. Getting back to the V3i. It is 10 years old. Will I need to worry about the possibility that it doesn't have a proper software upgrade? Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Chris
