Wow..interesting video, confirms things on my Garrett ACE 250... as I get about the same depth with silver dime and quarter 9 to 11 inches max. sense. The best way to get deeper on any machine would be with a larger diameter coil...and if you can increase the sensitivity-power on it.
Some of what you say is true. I started with an Ace 250. Then upgraded to an ATPro. Then to the Etrac. The switch to the Etrac was by far the best upgrade. While you may get the same on an air test with the ace 250, it is a machine that will only pick up the deep targets at a fairly fast swing speed and its processor is not fast enough to pick up all the deep targets in even a remotely trashy area cuz its too busy processing the trash and shallow targets. The Etrac can be swung super slow and its processor is much faster. I went from 15 silver coins in most of a year with the garretts, to over 150 silver coins this past year with the Etrac. If you can afford it, it will be an amazing upgrade for you. Give it a month and decrease your swing speed. Then go back to those places you deemed "too trashy" with your garrett and the etrac will blow your mind. happy hunting
I hooked up the Minelab CTX 3030 17” Coil and I’m barely getting a hit at 7-8”
Good vid. But a place can never be truly hunted out
so what were your settings on the Etrac and Ctx 3030 at them defs were they the same?
do you feel the e-trac is still a worth while investment at $1500 there are several machine in that range,thank you for sharing your thoughts.
air tests are never acurate

Rnb inovations battery with etrac makes it unbeatable. Trust me😜
Like 3 more volts than stock battery.
