This is one thing I've always liked about Garrett detectors. they tend to be very simple and intuitive with the way they set

I've used them before. I can't compare them to anyone else though because that was the only time I've had any gold to scrap. The price was close to my calculations if I remember correctly, and everything was fast and simple.

This thread shows scans of the transmit frequencies. The peaks in the transmit wave match up with pimento's frequencies. IDK if they are all processed though.

I *think* that I've read that they use 2 frequencies, approximately 2.5 khz and 25 khz. It's been a while since I read about them, but I think I saw that in a post made by Geotech (Carl Moreland?) somewhere.

Probably won't happen. I've already determined, by comparing signals on real targets, that the Multi Kruzer does better that the AT. I still almost always use the AT, unless I force myself otherwise, and typically find more

I mean..... I still like mine. I love the audio. That being said, I also own a Multi Kruzer, and have an Equinox 800 on the way.

I prefer to use tone ID versus a screen. Though by that I mean tones that modulate and blend, not having 50 tones for example. The proportional audio on the Garrett AT series is basically what I mean by that. If someone could put the audio from an AT Pro on a modern platform that would be my perfect detector.

I know that this is primarily a beach detector, but I have seen a few posts about using it for relic hunting. For dirt hunting, what does this detector have to offer? Does it only have an advantage in highly mineralized soil? Thanks,
Seth

I don't know if this counts, because I never got rid of it, but for me it's my AT Pro. I've had it for about 5 years now, and none of the other machines I've used since then have clicked with me the way it has though to be fair I've only used two other high end detectors since getting it due to being an unemployed teenager for most of that time; a V3i and a Multi Kruzer.

If you can avoid that trash on say an AT Pro, what makes the nox better? More depth? Better separation? Perhaps you only find more because you have to dig more trash?

I'm pretty sure it is still a two frequency simultaneous machine. Same as all the other Minelab multi frequency detectors.

I'm wondering the same thing.

I think this detector is being over hyped. People should wait until seeing some actual performance before assuming it will obsolete all other mid range detectors.

It looks pretty lame. The thing that concerns me the most is that they say it has pulse width audio, not proportional. I hope the terms are interchangeable, but I feel they might not be.

I bet it will be the new top of the line. Take some of the gti features, multi frequency, all the good from the AT pro/gold, and have something that will compete with the rest of the market. I'm hoping for something very, very good.

I don't know about the relic, but your AT Pro should work ok. I've never taken it into the surf however. Did great on the dry sand, no steel bottlecaps. Of course, you'll be using your Mojave on dry sand

That sounds crazy to me, because I would describe proportional audio as both tight and clean (at least on good targets). You just made me want an impact even more than I do already
