Mary 352 Posted June 28, 2016 Report Share Posted June 28, 2016 Any one do a bit, I use the deus which is a class machine but recently tried it out on a few beaches and had a terrible time of it on the wet sand, so what's a good cheap machine for wet sand if anyone can help.

Mary 352 Posted June 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2016 Does the deus not have a wet sand program?Yep, was using the wet program but had non stop chatter, tried all I could, changed sensitivity, manual ground balance, just non stop noise, sand was highly mineralised but I am able to adjust on land with high mineralisation but not on wet sand, 3 different beaches too.

Rake aboot 4,936 Posted June 29, 2016 Report Share Posted June 29, 2016 AT Pro for me. I hate beaches round here. Masses of coke. Not been out much but like it when I can. Quite an enjoyable way to spend a day. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
