Default New F5 is here...

...took it for a quick spin in back yard. Found a dime (and another nail).

Really light. Display gives all the information you need, and having the knobs to adjust is sweet.

Much better than the 30 yr old Garrett I have played with the last few weekends.

Wish a seasoned MD'er in Austin would take this newbie out for the weekend.

Can't wait till Saturday...

Danny

Congrats on the new machine and looking forward to your posts/finds with it.
I'm not seasoned per se' but if I was in your area, we would go dig it up!

Default Congratz on your new toy!

You're gonna really like this machine.

It is a terror on coins at the parks I hunt.

If the park is trashy I put the disc to max
and notch in foil and tabs and dig every solid hit.

I've found a couple of gold items among all
the tabs and coins I've had to dig up. Have fun!
