Got a new At pro for a killer deal online

[Trackerman]

Well a new addition was added to the Adams family. I picked a Brand new At Pro off a lady online for 350. I couldn't resist for that price. She had used it maybe once if that. But it kinda looks like she never had used it. Anyway i used it at a local park for a bit in a sand lot and found a few quarters dimes and 2 hot wheels and a key and misc trash etc. It worked pretty well i like it. Im just not used to the settings there's so Manny. The best part about it was it was kinda raining and i was able to hunt regardless. In the past id have to go home whith my other id machines when it rained.

Now the question for the At Pro experts out there what are the best settings for trashy parks to hunt coins and jewelry and what sensitivity are people using for parks. Also what sensitivity for beaches and mode. Thanks and happy hunting to all.

Can't go wrong with these vids,

The 5"x8" DD is very good in trashy areas.....................and not to mention the 4.5" sniper coil. As far as sensitivity goes run it as high as the machine will allow you to. I always start with full sensitivity and adjust accordingly when and if the detector starts to play up.
Cheers!

Thanks has the stock coil a bit different than the average round coil. But i like it alot the Machine is pretty nice and the weight is not too bad. Man theres alot of features on this machine . Its a bit different than my ace 250 but has some similarities. Love the Fact i can now hunt in the rain. Now i just gota find a good park and learn the settings well thanks.

You got a Great deal. There's really only three modes, but in Standard and Pro, so it looks like six. The big difference is between Standard and Pro and the amount of information you get from them. It's best to practice away from trashy areas and dig everything while paying close attention to the tone and vdi of each target. If you hit more than one target and the depth indicator jumps up and down you can try lowering the sensitivity to eliminate one.
