[quote kurt-ks][quote SkiWhiz]I set the tone settings by air testing certain coins,etc. I set the ground balance to a slight positive setting. I am off now to hit a few parks and will let you all know how I make out with the adjusted "Steve's way settings" Golden uMax. Thanks! Steve.[/quote] Not trying to be a jerk,but don't you think you should disclose that you have been inside this detector changing factory settings?I wouldn't touch this this with a ten foot pole![/quote] I don't think you're a jerk Kurt, the people that that are interested in my Golden are well aware of me stting the ground balance & adjusting the tones.
And I am not trying to be a jerk to you Kurt or anyone else but - I have been working in electronics for almost 30 years, I have been a satellite dealer since 1985 and have fixed hundreds of satellite receivers & so on. If you think that I am not capable of removing 2 faceplate screws that hold on the faceplate and adjusting a simple potentiometer with a small plastic phillips screwdriver then you have alot to learn about me my friend.
One more thing, if someone buys my Golden and is unhappy with it, I will return their money, I am that honest, and can give you proof of that from many people I have sold detectors to. And have a 5 star Tesoro dealer from Conn. that will tell you what kind of person I am. Thanks for your cheering me up! Steve.
