MD-4050 Metal Detector for Beginners
The MD-4050 gives a beginner the two things that decide whether the hobby sticks: an LCD that names the probable metal type and target depth before digging, and three-tone audio so different metals sound different. It has All Metal and Discrimination modes, plus a notch function to ignore junk metal, and the build is specified for use in saltwater as well as fresh.
Key benefits
- LCD shows probable metal type, target depth, DISC/NOTCH range and sensitivity
- Three-tone audio discrimination separates metal types by sound
- Notch function ignores junk metal and keeps valuable targets
- Built for saltwater as well as fresh water use without corrosion
- Super slow sweep identification for careful target discrimination
Problems it solves
