Well dang!!! there sure seems like there is a lot of hot rocks out there.
I just ordered Jeff's book so hopefully I wil learn something. I went out today with the md and had a terrible time with it.
It lied to me constantly. Plus, my boot got stuck in the mud and when I tried to pull my foot out I lost my balance and fell in the mud face first cause when I started falling I held my metal detector up so I wouldn't get it dirty. Since I couldn't put my hands down to catch my fall my face hit the mud first. I think I'm gonna bruise.

I know how you feel. I spent allot of time digging up nothing when I first got mine. I wasn't ground balancing it properly so it was pretty erratic. I was in to big of a hurry to get out and use it. I should have stuck around the yard first, planted a coin garden and figured it out a little before venturing out with it. Not to worry, you will get it and when you have it purring like a kitten and your digging up the good stuff it will all be worth it. Had mine five years now, banged it off trees, rocks and brush in the woods, dropped it now and then. Sturdy machine.
Very important! When you get your book pay close attention to paragraph one on page 42. The reason I am telling you this is because I read the book several times before I caught this and it sunk in. Very important!
