White's 24K shorting out 340 2
Started by srandall@hughes.net
On my last 2 outings with my older White's 24K Goldmaster, it keeps shorting out, usually when I bump it into material or almost always when I lay it down to investigate a ping. It turns right back on when I push the power button back on, and it stays on, until I bump or lay it down. Are there any thoughts about why this is happening

I have a Garrett carrot and a Falcon MD-20. I just bought a Nox 800 and I am looking for a pinpointer that is sensitive to small gold. My Garrett carrot is horrible for small gold and I don't want to bring my Falcon as it's not practicle as a mobile pinpointer. Are there other mobile pinpointers that are good for small gold
