    Stick with the X-Terra!!

    Hi all Got lucky this week. someone asked me to do a serious test and assessment of the CTX 3030. Over a couple of days I came to a rock solid conclusion. If you forget the toy GPS thingy which is largely irelevant and the fact you can plug it in to your PC, it's not in the same league as the...

    Ground mineralisation

    Hi everyone, Just doing a test on the 3030, but somethings stumped me. User manual states if the ground is not heavily mineralised Ground Balance should not be used. On 'hot' ground it should be. Fair enough, but how is anyone supposed to know what the ground on a strange location is like? On my...

    straight shaft 705

    Hi all, Looking to put a straight shaft on my 705. That upward curve just forward of the control box/handle seems a bit ungainly to me. Has anyone put a straight middle shaft on their 705?

    neoprene cuff cover

    Hi all, I'm looking for a neoprene or similar padded arm cuff cover for my X-Terra 705. My dealer here only has the one which fits the Gp and GPX range. Don't mind buying from the US or elsewhere if I can find the darned thing. Cuff seems to catch my arm everytime. I may have really strange...

    Level of mineralisation

    Hi all, Just a technical query about the X-terra 705. I've been in the game for more than 30 years but this is my new detector and I'm just getting to know it. I may be getting it the wrong way around, but several things I've read seem to suggest that the LOWER ground balance numbers on the...

    A long way from home!

    Hi everyone We had an unusual find yesterday. My wife Jill and I were using our X-Terra 705's on an old sporting field in a small village in a rural area of New South Wales, Australia.. After a short time Jill waved me over to show me a find, something out of the ordinary for us. It was a US 1...
