Steve Herschbach Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 Rico, welcome to the forum! The XLT is a very good detector and in the right hands (no doubt like yours) it runs with the best of them. I having been to the UK myself and getting rained on nearly every day of my visit can see the appeal of a machine like the MX Sport right away. It would be nice to not worry about the rain, and to be able to just hose the mud off the detector periodically. The finds people like you make in Europe are just amazing. Coins you think are too young to bother with are older than anything possible in the U.S. Those are some great finds - I hope to get back over the pond one of these days for another go at ancient treasure! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rico Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Lol steve every time i see the program on discovery with the ringmaster and that other dude, im laughing my pants out, they talk ablout old, finds, yess in american standard. the normal coins we find are around 16 17 and 1800 and older, we have big fields that where in the early 1700 peat fields. they take the 2 peal in 2 meters off, and filled it with human sh#t and street dirt, and trash to make the fields the peat was shipped in boats that where going toi big city,s acros the netherlands and they take the shit stuff back in the ships, it was good for the plant,s in that ground we find coins musket bullets and more of that crazy stuff but this weekend is comming a buyer for my xlt . a shame but my wife is killing me loknths back ive bought already the treasuremaster for backup. and now its time to try a new model, sow the xlt was the victim .. i hope i dont regret it :) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ridge Runner Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 Hey Bowwinkles I see it's your first post. I welcome you and come back often. I'm one that want to see more of it. I'm just wondering if White's will offer a package with it. But only the powers that be know. Thanks for the heads up. Chuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Herschbach Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 White's has added the official MX Sport User's Manual to their website and it is available here. I have compared it to the preliminary manual and only see one change - the addition of one section on the Reject Volume feature. Other than that the manual appears to be the same, though with a much lower quality in the visual clarity of the tables - too much compression used on the file. The preliminary manual is much sharper when viewed or printed. I have to admit I was hoping for some other operational gems to be revealed but that looks to be about it. There appears to be an error in both versions of the manual in the specifications listing. Both tables show the MX Sport as having up to 22 tones. Yet the manual is clear that a 20 tone setting is the highest obtainable. Are they counting the 20 tones plus maybe iron grunt and something else? Maybe, but it is being repeated a lot on the forums that the MX Sport has a 22 tone mode when in fact it does not. I have made a change to my own version of the spec list to help alleviate this confusion. Kind of like on the picture of the box below. Instead of "20 Audio Tone Option" it says "20 Audio Tone Options" which makes me think the machine has twenty different audio tone settings. Little things like that can leave people disappointed for no good reason, all over an extra letter "s". Boxed and ready to ship..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
