4The GTAx 550
By Ben T. Renneberg, 13 years old
When I started getting interested in metal detectors I went to all of the stores that I could find in my area and on the internet. The first one I saw was the same price as the GTAx 550 but only had two knobs: sensitivity and discrimination. The GTAx 550 has those functions plus it tells you what is in the ground before you dig it up which was really helpful in my yard because when we were building the house someone came up and threw a box of nails in the yard. For the most part this works, but every once in a while you'll find that deep hunk of metal that it can't identify. On the older detectors with the knobs, you set the discrimination by turning the knob. That means that if you don't want to dig pulltabs than you will miss nickels and other valuble coins. On the GTAx 550, you can discriminate specific targets, like a nail or pulltab without missing the nickels. There are also two modes on the GTAx 550 so you don't have to reset the discrimination between coins and jewelry all of the time, you set one mode for each. This way you can change modes using just one button. One more mode it has is pinpoint which shows you exactly where the metal is and how deep it is. This usually works pretty well and is very important so you do not damage lawns.
