Smile Can't wait!!

Jumping up with joy. Just ordered my first metal detector, a gareette 250 and ordered a pinpointer with it from Kellyco.
Went with some friends about 15 years ago, enjoyed it and finally made the move and ordered one today. Said I should receive in 3-5 days hope to have it for the weekend.
Any ideas, hints wouldd be appreciated!!
Thanks

Default Welcome

Hello and welcome aboard!! I also have an ACE 250 I really enjoy it, what kind of pinpointer did you order? When you get your ACE make sure you read the manual or watch the DVD if it comes with it, do a bench test to learn the different tones, and get out there and practice, practice, practice!!! If you ever have any questions just post, you'll get lots of help from all the wonderful people here on TQ !!
ENJOY,
Bobbi

Default You will love it

Welcome. My advice is to dig everything until you learn what that detector is trying to tell you. The ACE is a great detector, you will not be sorry for that choice once you learn it. Good luck, looking forward to hearing about you finds.

Received my ace 250 last night. Went out today and hotter than heck. Found 3 pennies in 1/2 hour.
Waiting to cool down and go out again.
