Phil Aberaman:
Hi All

Ive just bought a T2 and using it 1st time on the beach, ive owned an F75 in the past and know like the T2 they arent good wet sand machines.
What settings do you T2 users use on the wet stuff ?

If your on Aberavon on Sunday, come and say Hi !
It,ll be good to get to know peeps from here, ive been away from the hobby a few years.

i,ll be with my ole detecting bubby, im one looking puzzled and frustrated setting my T2 for wet sand lol

Greg:
Hi Phil, if you are intent on beach Detecting, in my opinion you need to invest in a Minelab machine, they can be expensive new but there are a lot of good second hand ones out there.
Good hunting.

Phil Aberaman:
Ive had a Explorer 11  and Advantage Pro,
Im not weedy but found the Explorer to heavy to be enjoyable.

The F75 and T2 (virtually the same machine), are more suited to my type of detecting, i like to cover a lot of ground quicker, The F75 worked ok to a point on wet sand but killed dry and all types of soil.
Im going to do more Beach detecting till i can find land again, Im surrounded by the stuff so shouldnt take long.

I havnt been Detecting for 7 years so have to re-learn everything,

Dungbeetle:
The T2 is a great machine on dry land and not too bad on dry sand if you drop the sensitivity down but it's a nightmare on wet sand. Good luck with it, hopefully you will get a few inland permissions to go at. Welcome back to the fold.

Cant go wrong with the T2 bud, forget the rest ;) I wouldn't use anything else now, been
detecting 35yrs.
As for T2 on beach. I couldn't say ??? , I have seen some vids of wet sand detecting with T2 , and when Ground balanced to the wet sand seems to work fine.
Goodhunting.
