Hi All,

Our stock of detectors has arrived and so we are up and running although the showroom still has
some work to be done. Our first sale was to Peter in Christchurch. Thanks Peter.

Today I have put up on the DetectNZ blog a November package deal for
the Minelab CTX 3030 waterproof detector .

You can check it out at www.detectnz.blogspot.co.nz

Doon't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.

Regards,
Chris.

Hi Golddigger.

Not a dumb question at all.
The short answer is yes you can scuba with it but there is a depth limit.
I also need to check on the waterproof headphone details.

Here are the major features from the Minelab site.

Waterproof: You can go detecting anywhere with this versatile TREASURE detector. You have the flexibility of land and underwater detecting as the CTX 3030 is waterproof* to 10 ft (3 m).
Wireless Audio: Have the freedom to detect without your headphones being attached to your detector. With the WM 10 Wireless Module^ you have the choice of using the built-in speaker, supplied headphones or your own favourite headphones.
Ultimate FeCo Discrimination: With Ferrous (Fe) and Conductivity (Co) target resolution, plus adjustable Tone ID Profiles, you can detect (accept) the targets you want to and ignore (reject) the rest. With Target Trace and Target Separation, you can identify multiple targets simultaneously for accurate detecting results.
Full Colour Display: The full colour LCD clearly displays more target information than ever before and greatly enhances the CTX 3030’s discrimination capabilities.
GPS Locating: See where you have been, and where you are going, by using the Map screen and Navigation Tool.
PC Mapping (with Google Maps):

Hope this he;ps.
Chris
