- Primary Interest:
- Metal Detecting
I have been reading here for about a month, now, trying to decide on what detector to purchase.
I have learned quite a bit, but still feel as though I may be no closer to making a decision....lots to take into account!
For that reason, I am posting to ask for ratings/rankings of what everyone considers the most important features to look for on a MD....in my particular situation, I expect that I will be doing mostly land detecting, with perhaps a couple weeks at the beach each year.
Also thinking that I will be looking to invest around $600 in a detector, with priority on coin shooting, hunting parks, tot lots, old home sites, and a few CW encampments.
With that in mind---- and I hope that is sharing enough info---- how would you rank the importance of the following:
Multiple VLF freq's
Notch discrimination
Manual ground balance
DD versus concentric coil
Waterproof coil
Changing/multiple coils
Other important options I have failed to include?
And, the question that I am sure that everyone is tired of seeing posted (Sorry!):
What detector at or around $600 (new or used) would offer most or all of the above?
Many thanks to all who are willing to respond and offer assistance in my buying decision!
