GARRETT AT MAX TESTS
Comments Very popular Detector The 8.5’’ x 5.5’’ is one of the best I have tested for it’s size Pros Excellent detector Waterproof Average weight Cons Not good on wet sand (I am told) Signals a bit scratchy ( I think) |
|||||||
|
DEPTH TESTS The depth tests are set up to gauge the power of the detector, all iron is removed from the hole. Various size items are buried at good depths |
