Was that found in the States? Wow what a beauty, that thing is hudge. That is pretty impressive on depth on either machine. Id use either one prospecting. Good video.
 
One thing about the ATX is that deepseeker coil Garrett offers for it. Would love to see how deep that coil could pick up this nugget! IMO it will never be a fair fight between these two detectors simply because they don't have very comparable coils available and the coils for the GPX that do compare to the stock DD on the ATX no one really uses for nugget hunting anyways (recall how many GPX users cried foul when you tested DD against DD on smaller nuggets). :starwars:

Man I'm still dying to see that deepseeker coil do some deep finding. Good videos...those are nice detectors but it was harder to take my eyes off the nugget for sure :devil:
 
What was the gain set at on the gpx during this test?

Nice Video Bearkat....that'll sell a bunch more ATX's!!
Looks like the ATX is one hellulva gold detector for money, especially at less than half the price of ML GPX 5000!

The new, SDC 2300 Mine Lab has got a tough road to hoe to beat the ATX in performance, not to mention price.

Hey, thanks for the gain info, that sounds fair. For the money that ATX looks like a very good machine. Thanks for all your videos. I think I have a buddy that is gonna pop on one pretty soon. He has been looking for a simple to operate pi machine that can do small gold thru deep bigger gold, looks like he has found what he wants.
 
BK...

I hope this isn't the finale ??

I and others who follow your videos would really like to see some big mono tests on all those
Gold nuggets of yours...:clap:

Cheers BK,

Tyee
 
Hi Tye, I was only referring to the ATX vs GPX testing, not ATX by itself...however with all the talk of the hot dirt test...I think I will do a encore video of a hot dirt test with ATX vs GPX.

Need the snow to melt though!
