            <description><![CDATA[ Thanks Tom. Looking forward to seeing how this new ML fits in for the beach hunters as well. Most of the initial information has been general operations and features, and salt beach functionality and improvements usually are covered later. I know you and they thought that out well, so it’s going to be an interesting detector. I am still puzzled by the concentration of iron signal details, as 80-90% of the time, many don’t dig iron nor do I care if it’s 200 or 400 years old but I supposed as time goes on, this improvement will become clearer.<br />
Always nice to come here and get real information not a Hype Show. Despite the catchy titles, not many YouTube vids have really had much more than the same general info (can you say clickbait?)]]></description>

Apparently the power increase may only apply to single frequency mode.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ Thanks for posting the interesting &amp; informative video. I look forward to hearing how well it does on difficult sites &amp; deeper targets. The 2D ID is a nice way to show additional target info. I hope it works to near max depth. The two tiered Iron Bias should be useful also. I sure would like to hear the enhanced audio selection.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ I&#039;m actually pretty excited about the Manticore myself.<br />
<br />
Minelab knows how to handle the soil, if they have sped it up some for iron rich sites it may be a real step forward for Minelab.<br />
<br />
For depth in my soil I have found P.I. is a overkill for what you have to put up with in terms of no DISC my soil is bad but its not to the point id have to rely on a P.I. thanks goodness.Yet  Minelab has always punched my soil great and above its weight but gets less use in iron laden sites..If they can do both now well WOW!!<br />

            <description><![CDATA[ Hey Tom I and many others like the cable that ran inside instead of outside. That was an awesome feature on the 3030. Any reason they didn&#039;t carry that design forward to there newer machines?<br />

            <description><![CDATA[ That target trace looks VERY interesting...<br />
