A few days ago, I met a boy who was selling a CTX 3030. I sent him a message, asking him please, if you would not mind sharing experiences with the detector, because here on the island, there were few people and there are no stores.
He told me yes, that he was interested in learning, and that he didn't have much experience. We met in a place and there we met.
He had been detecting for two years, but it seemed to him that he left many things without finding ... I was explaining to him that the terrain here is very bad and that without manual ground balance and discrimination, it was not possible to go beyond a few centimeters in depth. We did some tests and he realized everything I was telling him.
He asked me if I was not going to buy another more modern detector (he said that what I had were classics, haha) I said yes, but that I did not need an expensive detector, or with many "flourishes" What had I thought of a Nokta simplex , but I should try it, to be sure it works here.
We kept talking, I gave him good advice and I took him to a place where he had brought up important things.
He went home grateful and the next morning, he knocked on my door and gave me a Nokta simplex, which he did not use ...
I thought he had gone crazy !!
He told me: no one has ever helped me as much as you! And also, you took me to your favorite places, without asking for anything in return ...
Tears welled up in his eyes.
He says: I had to buy three detectors, because I thought the problem was the detectors and not me. You, you have opened my eyes. I have learned more in two days than in two years.
