I learnt something from the videos - The threshold tone can be turned off or on in both the manual and automatic sensitivity modes.

In the manual it only states that - Manual sensitivity has a threshold tone  and auto sensitivity has no threshold tone what it should say is Manual defaults to a threshold tone and auto defaults to no threshold tone but you have the ability to turn the threshold tone off or on.

Thank god for that! Personally, I want it on. All my detecting life I have been focusing on listening to threshold variations. It would be odd to just turn it off. This also bothers me on the GM, but since the GM only detects shallow stuff anyhow I have accepted and got used to it.

Lucky, thanks, viewed all of the videos ML provided, is there anywhere in NV or AZ that we would want to use the double D? I have not made it to California yet. 

Plenty!  A few spots in Arizona with some hot Basalt and of course wet ground of Rye Patch area.

If the DD performs really well in salt then a ton of Northern (and other parts) Nevada will be a renewed playground. :cool:

Also, people in some renowned "hot ground" areas in AZ will discover to be true what I've been saying for years but cannot seem to convince anyone of: some of the gnarliest hot ground down there is actually just salty and not "hot". Sometimes a little of both.

Having the promo emails and GPX6000 page up and running on the Minlab website does this mean the gag order is cancelled @Jonathan Porter

Nope and TBH I’m over the whole process.

What are powerlines? ?

OK, It’s quiet and light, that’s a given. I really can't wait for the report, it will be good when we get those here from the real users, just don’t take it over my digs!  ?

What do you yanks call the overhead wires that carry electricity?

Most of the desert here has open areas easily detected for a lack of those, but they certainly do create areas that foil a good hunt wherever they occur. I like everyone else must then tend to go where they arent for it, but if the 6000 is truly effective and quiet underneath  powerlines as shown, it will open areas up and we can truly ignore them, hence “what are powerlines?”

A person could easily tell salty and boron laden hot ground just by learning the type of plants growing in an area. Saltbush or shadscale, and iodine bush are good indicators of this, as they are the most salt tolerant shrubs in the Great Basin desert.
