Minelab CTX 3030

A fully integrated professional detector with a full-color LCD screen and a built-in GPS system (GPSi) that automatically logs find locations and search paths for later review on a computer. FBS 2 multi-frequency technology (1.5 to 100 kHz) and the Smartfind 2 system provide visual ferrous and conductivity discrimination, backed by waterproofing to 3 meters, wireless audio, and portable setting memory via XChange 2 software — built for serious collectors who want to document every find.

The CTX 3030 is Minelab's most advanced all-around detector, pairing multi-frequency FBS 2 technology with Smartfind 2 discrimination for reliable results across every soil type. A full-color LCD screen gives you a clear readout for every target.

The built-in GPSi system logs GeoTrails, WayPoints, and FindPoints with high accuracy, so you can retrace productive ground and return to it later, with data exportable to Google Maps via XChange 2 software.

Wi-Stream wireless audio through the included WM 10 module keeps response instant, and Koss UR30 headphones are included as well. The detector is fully waterproof to 3 meters (10 feet), with a comfortable design that positions battery weight behind the armrest.

Five preset search modes cover 20 customizable discrimination patterns (two per mode), while Target Trace separates multiple overlapping targets — such as iron next to a coin, or a coin against mineralized ground — for greater accuracy in cluttered sites.
