Default Well, I couldnt take it any longer.........

I broke down and purchased an E-Trac today. I hope it is as good as everyone says it is and I can not wait for it to get here. Did I say I can not wait for it to get here yet?

thanks guys, and 86 I like my pro and will probably be keeping it also as long as i can afford to. It has nothing to do with the pro. I just like learning new things and from everything I have read about the E-Trac on here, it is a great machine....

Thanks Robert, I cant wait to try out the sniper coil for my pro when it gets here too. I got it from a company called Deep Coin Detectors. The fella I talked to seemed to be a heck of a nice guy. Have you ever heard of them

The Minelab etrac is the best silver hunter I have ever used. If your a silver hunter it's the one to have for sure. Not great small gold detector but thats what you have AT Pro for right?? Lol
Get Andy Sabish books and read them at least twice. TONS of good info in there!
