    Clad Percentages

    In a little under two years of having my AT Pro, I've dug 815 coins (not great, but okay), totaling $69.23. Of the 815 coins, 45% were pennies, 8% were nickels, 27% were dimes! and 20% were quarters. I could lower the % of pennies by not digging them! but I hate to not dig a good signal. Just...

    Why NO Silver?

    Year to date I've dug up about $20 in clad which is a fair amount of coins. Some of these coins have been in the early 1900's so I'm finding some older coins. However, I've yet to find any silver. No rosies, no mercs, no no nothing. I'm sure it's a matter of time, but it baffles me why I...

    New 5 x 8 DD Coil

    Ordered a 5x8 DD coil for my AT Pro from Big Boys Hobbies. Not only did I receive it the next day, but Bart gave me a price below that advertised on the web. Looking forward to using it this weekend. Thanks for the great service Bart. Stu

    Ground Balance - Automatic or Manual

    Do you ground balance your AT Pro manually or by the automatic mode. As a newbie, I've been using GB automatically. But as I reread the manual, I see where you can enhance the detection of smaller objects by manually GBing slightly positive, which may help detect deeper coins (page 32 of the...

    AT Pro on the way

    Ordered an AT Pro today from Bart at Big Boys Hobbies. It's a Christmas gift from the wife. Got the ATP, a Lesche, and a Garrett propointer. It's been since 1982 when I last did any MDing (while stationed at Osan AB, Korea). Can't wait to get back into this hobby. BTW, Bart treated me well...
