Ran into some finacial difficulties awhile back and had to quickly liquidate my detectors. I've been wanting to try a Whites machine for quite awhile and set my sights on an MXT. In my limited experience detectors with a little higher frequency seem to work better in the mineralized ground here in CA so I decided the MXT would be a good choice. Well I found a great deal on one. Guy I got it from said he got it second hand from someone who kept it behind the seat of a pickup, and it shows. 950 coil looks new, some pretty good scratches on the box,and couple dings(but no holes)on the screen. Took it on a very short hunt last weekend and it works flawlessly. I had been a little worried about weight since I'm used to First Texas machines that are quite a bit lighter. But I have to confirm what other users have said "balance makes the difference". With the battery box between the hand and elbow it is very comfortable to swing I know I'm going to love this detector. I'm sure I will soon have questions about adding coils but I want to learn as much as I can with the stock coil first. Gave $200 and a left over coil from a previously owned detector for this and could'nt pass it up.

Congrats And welcome back! I am new to the world of the MXT as well. I recently traded a Minelab X-terra 705 for a clean MXT Pro with the SEF 8x6 butterfly coil. I purchased a 950 coil about a week ago as well. My only other experience with a White's machine was a DFX. I wanted something simple but with VDI. I think I have found a keeper with this MXT Pro. Good luck and Happy Hunting
