Minelab CTX 3030 Metal Detector

Minelab CTX 3030 Metal Detector product photo
The CTX 3030 is Minelab's full-featured FBS 2 detector for serious coin, relic, and jewelry hunters who want simultaneous multi-frequency performance and a waterproof build rated to 10 ft - not the lightest option, but the most data-rich target ID in the lineup.

Key Features

The CTX 3030 metal detector is built around FBS 2 multi-frequency transmission with coil-to-detector data communication, aimed at squeezing more target information out of variable ground conditions. FeCo target resolution plus adjustable Tone ID Profiles let you accept the targets you want and ignore the rest, while Target Trace and Target Separation help identify multiple targets sitting close together.

On-the-go adjustments are handled through a single central User button, so sensitivity, noise cancel, audio, and ground balance can be changed without digging through menus. The detector is waterproof up to 10 ft (3 meters), so a minelab ctx 3030 waterproof metal detector search doesn't have to stop at the shoreline. Ergonomically, the battery weight sits behind the armrest for balance, and you can run the built-in speaker, the supplied headphones, or your own pair while reading targets off the bright, full-color LCD.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Minelab CTX 3030 waterproof?

Yes - the CTX 3030 is waterproof up to 10 ft (3 meters), so it can go below the surface at the beach or in a riverbank, not just handle rain or splashes.

What makes the CTX 3030's target ID different from simpler detectors?

It uses FBS 2 multi-frequency transmission with FeCo target resolution, adjustable Tone ID Profiles, and Target Trace/Target Separation to sort overlapping targets - see the full CTX 3030 review for how that plays out in the field.

How do I adjust settings while detecting?

A single central User button cycles through Sensitivity, Noise Cancel, Audio, and Ground Balance, so changes can be made on the go without stopping to dig through menus.
