20 km hike.

In one of the latest issues of Gold gems and treasure Jack lang was really pushing the fact how it could handle bad ground and how he picked up a couple of nice nuggets with it. It sure does make you wonder about someone with a fairly good reputation would praise such a pathetic machine, I dont know B.T it just doesnt make sense.
Cheers!
 
[quote B.T]Rubbish. I work for a detector shop and we have seen dozens of those junkers. Meters that stick, slipping hand grips, crook coils, you name it. Just sent one back yesterday to the supplier. If I had my choice they would never get through the front door of the shop.
I have tested them out numerous times and they are looser machines full stop. And yes, a couple of modded ones too. Oh yeah, sure they can sound good on non mineralised ground and air tested but put them into a real goldfield enviroment and they are junk. The Whites Prizm 2 flogs it to death and here in Oz it sells for just $360AUD. So claims of it beating machines in the $1000 range is crap. They are what they are, cheap Chinese junk. Im guessing you are plugging a mod job huh?[/quote]

Maaaate ... RUBBISH ??? I dont think so . You must be a seller or something for that minelab mob or whites maybe even fisher or garrets.
Give the Chinese a go Maaaattteeee. I have used this beautiful machine (actually to poor salt into the wound,, it was a Weekender MD1023) I moded it and tweaked it ... and I love this little machine. I am finding sub grammers in heavy mineralised ground bout 1 inch or little more . Thats no exageration.
So I thinks you can compare this cheapy with the more expensive brands no matter what other " ? So Called More Qualified People ? " say.

You can not prove any thing with photos. Photos can be edited , manipulated etc etc.
So it is only my word. 1 gram for me at 4.5inch in heavy mineralised ground, and an ignorance of hot rocks.... I think is great.
Also with this machine the coils are not interchangeable. You cannot get a coil from one machine and put on another and expect it to perform the same.
I have 2 of these machines and did just that ... I did not get the same response from the other machines coil. It be a manufacturing fault or something.
I may have just been lucky with mine and got a matched pair. Yes the manufacturing of the machine is not the best... but that is why I modified it :clsoedeyes: Being a technician helps a little bit sometimes dont you think :biggrin:
Have a nice day.:cool::ausflag:
