I recently purchased a previously owned CTX3030. Today i took it out for it's trial run. I think i have it set up correctly. I hit the old fair grounds in town. They had just paved an area in front of one of the old buildings. It looks like they took about 4 of dirt away on the fence side. Wish i was there after they removed the dirt. :-\
I hit the dirt road area at the end as it looked as if they added some fresh dirt. My first find was my first silver with the CTX. A 1944 merc! All together i got $1.11 and a small metal thing that says jackass :huh:thinkingabout:?.

Here's pics....

Congrats on the merc :clapping: Anytime they are moving dirt is a great time to detect. But when they are moving it from a fairground it is :shocked04: :shocked04: Too bad there wasn't anyone to ask where the dirt went to. I really recommend running the stock programs the first couple of times out and running auto +3 sensitivity. Nice first hunt.

Very respectable first hunt with your CTX 3030! :yes:

Did you get your used CTX from a dealer or on eBay?
