Aureous Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 Getting back to Garrett lol.... if they simply spent a few $$ making the whole ATX package a smaller, lighter option with sensible coil options (make the design aftermarket-coil friendly) with maybe a few tweaks for sampling speed and/or frequency options, it would be a winner. The PCB design is good but the multiple button-press menu options are a huge nuisance for beginners. Keep the price below $3K and Garrett would sell a heap. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larger size again - interesting. Area coverage I suppose. I have never really looked into really big VLF coils. All spoked? Then the 10 X 5 will miss the mark for me if that is the case ? But thanks for the info ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the ATX circuit, and would buy one again if packaged properly. I'm done with 7 pound metal detectors. Garrett ATX Data & Reviews My first year highlights with Garrett ATX. Large nugget in center is 3/4 ounce. Exactly! I'm with you on the weight issue. The majority of us don't need a waterproof machine anyways. Garrett is seriously missing out on sales for not offering a light weight version. But who knows, considering their aquisition of Whites, maybe the patents and tech they bought in combination with their own tech will spawn a new line to compete with Minelab. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
