Love to relic hunt here in coastal South and North Carolina. I have a cabin in Wonder Valley (29 Palms) CA. that I go to once a year. When there I try to do a little prospecting in the Dale basin.
I for one will keep my good ole Australian made GP3500 until Minelab or another company comes out with a good discrimination unit that will make it possibility worth that kind of additional cost. I think market competition is needed here. Gary
