Good luck...PaulB. Title: Re: Arado 120b or 130 Post by: haiddheliwr on April 29, 2016, 10:59:53 AM Many thanks Paul. I used to own a 130 many years ago and just bought a IBA 65 in mint condition. I use a Minelab but just want to re-live a bit of my past again. The Arado was a terrific machine and I had many many good finds. Thanks again

I use a Mine-lab at the moment and am in a club surrounded by other top of the range machines, I would only probably use it for an hour or so on a rally and revert back to the Minelab! Funny age now so bear with me lol
