I am about to enter the same realm as you with the CTX. Mine will be here Tuesday and I do not mind telling you I am already intimidated. Along with reading everything here before buying it I decided to order Andy's book at the same time I ordered the CTX. I am going to take it slowly and go to some open non trashy fields to start. Then maybe to the local sand lot to find a few clad items and lost keys. After all that I will progress to some old areas of town hopefully find some older coins and relics. Keep posting as to your progress, inquiring minds want to know.
Don't be. My hang up was the first few days moving from one app to another.
My problem, I didn't study how to move around on the CTX to get where and
what I wanted on the machine. I'm retired so I got the machine out about the
5th day, sat down with the manual on what each button did and just practiced
going from one app to another. After that, no more problems in the field.
Good advice for a complete novice - for me anyway, ordered the recommended book and hope to get the 3030 in a few weeks, so studying hard
