After several tries I did get the password changed. What I did wrong was not scrolling down on the reset page. There is a place to log in in the upper right corner. That is not the one. Scroll down and you will find the reset password thing to fill out.

They are not depth monsters but I have other programs for that
I use Sonar 1 a lot for relic hunting out in the woods. I like the way it sounds off after long periods between targets. It does exactly what Gary intended, grabs your attention.

I have played taps many times over the last 60 or so years and always have considered it an honor to do so.
A friend sent me this link this past Memorial Day. Different words but still a wonderful rendition.

I had right rotator cuff sugery in 2005. After all of the range of motion rehab was finished, I saw another therapist to get some exercises specifically targeted for swinging a weight equal or more than that of my detector.
She started me out with just lifting arm (no weight) to the side for a dozrn reps and then 45 degrees off my right side. Did not life higher than shoulders.

That is a good idea and gives me some thoughts on a Mod.

Just a little example of how capable the At Pro is: For the last three years I have had a lot of success finding the coins that were planted but not found during our clubs annual silver hunt. This is in the backyard of the guy who hosts the hunt. Every inch of the hunt area gone over and over by all types and description of detectors and hunters.
I have found some dimes each year next to n

I used to have a huge DD coil for my old Garrett Grand Master Hunter that was so heavy that I turned the coil around and also shortened the shaft in order to be able to swing it at all.
I liked the big DD coil but it was simply too heavy even when it was reversed but it was better.

That video has the best explanation for manually setting the ground balance that I have seen. It was glossed over in other videos I have seen about the At Pro. Ground balancing the At Pro has always been a fuzzy area for me and this really cleared it up. Tried it out this afternoon and it works great. Dug a silver dime that was about the length of the Pro Pointer deep and still had clear to

I do as well. I pre-ordered mine as soon as they were offered for sale. As I remember, the negative comments started BEFORE they even started shipping the At Pro and it continued afterwards. Lots of nit picking going on so when an actual pr

Me too! However right now there seems to be a question as to interchangeability. Some people say yes, others say no. Garretts web site shows the same part numbers for same coil size which infers that that could be used on

I think that was the intent of the two videos.
The At Pro would be just as 'chatty' on the same ground. By the same token, that is the way to sift

That was a very interesting test Keith. Thanks for taking the time to make that video. Since the At Pro is also able to see through the brick I cannot help but wonder if we will see an SEF coil for the At Pro.
