for years i have used another detector brand, 2 weeks ago i thought i would try a new detector i was going to wait for the new apex to be released but something just didnt seem right about it. what was my alternative , so i thought long and hard the nox. unfortunately funds wouldnt allow me so i bought the vanquis 540 pro pack . 1st time out was getting to know my machine , completely different to what i was used to, but it was so easy to use. my second trip out on a field i had done many times and there in between all the coke an [ area that had driven me mad before ] was a beautifull medieval ring . i dont know the date yet as it has to go to the local finds officer within 14 days .thankyou for reading my story.
