Ctx is vintage but as anything old it was built to last and will always be up there with the best 👌

Iv Used nearly every machine on the market since Early 2000s , including Deus2 , and the NOX , many good machine's, but I always come back to the CTX legend of a machine once you master it 😉

The first thing I tell anyone who will listen…”learn how to navigate EVERYWHERE on the machine”. I know a few people personally who have had this machine for several years and STILL do not know how to get everywhere effectively. It makes it SO much more fun and PRODUCTIVE when you know how to get around it. As you said…it is NOT that hard.

There is a button under the coil that you have to press at the same time you press the menu key but you have to use your pinky finger for the button on the coil and an index finger for the menu (same hand).

I live in Alaska! I think the 7000 was modeled after this for gold. Except its a lot of $$$$$. I would like to concentrate mostly on GOLD nugs, silver, and native findings! What I like most is the LCD on this! I want it, but I'm uncertain of it's ability to find high-end minerals? Not looking for tin cans or bullets. What say you? I haven't researched many other brands? I REALLY like this one, except for that one uncertainty. Must get wet is a have too. People's videos only show coin mode every time? Is silver mode for GOLD too? Seems everyone only uses coin mode. I do like it better than the 800!🤠

While the CTX is good on many fronts I don't have the experience to say for they type of Gold hunting you are going on. Its seems to me that the hunting you will be doing will be highly mineralized soil and I would suggest looking into Minelab's GPX or GPZ detectors. They are even more $$$$ but will specialize in those conditions. However, I'm not saying the CTX won't find gold cos it certainly does very well on the beach etc. I just don't know how it would do on gold nugs in those conditions. Good luck.
