Hi everyone, I have just found this site and joined, so glad to find something WA based.
I have been detecting for about 5 years, mainly parks and beaches using first aa ACE 250, and then A Xterra 70 and have been dreaming for sometime of getting a real gold detector and having a go in the bush. I now have a GPX4500 and am in the process of devouring the maual. I have watched all the Johnathon Porter CD's and am really having trouble convincing myself that the day job is what I want to keep doing LOL.
I have a 4WD and caravan along with all the camping gear I could ever need and last but not least a wife who understands.
Hope to meet up with possible detecting partners via this site.
All the best to all.

Hi Bigcat. Its good to see more and more people joining the forum. I have only been a member for a few months now but as Ted has said there is an unlimited amount of information you can obtain. I have found all members only too willing to assist with help and advice.

Regards

Welcome aboard Big Cat,
Are you sure you want to get into this, you do realise many have been struck down with a terminal disease after finding their first nugget. It is called "Gold Fever" and it is incurable!

Good luck, you have a dream machine, so now with some research and getting to know your 4500 you will no doubt have a nug or two in your poverty jar.


Cheers
Peter
Good luck & safe travels
Peter
