    MX5 audio?

    Is the audio the same with the MX5 as the Prizm6T and other Prizm/Coinmaster series (soft, mellow tone)? Or, is it more similar to the MXT series (sharper, somewhat blaring? Why do I care? - because the soft tone is the most pertinent thing I dislike about the Przim series whereas I much prefer...

    OPINIONS?

    Does anyone have an opiinion or experience as to whether it would be worth trading a Prizm 6T with the 4X6, 8" and 9" coils for an MX5? I do have an MXT and a good selection of coils so those would be compatible with the MX5. Just wondering if the MX5, performance wise, would be a good move...

    Another DeLeon story

    Went to a park I've hunted often this evening. Swinging the DeLeon with the stock coil, disc above iron, sens at 8. Covered a lot of ground for just a nickle and a few pennies. I always detect my way back to my vehicle before shutting down. A few yards before I got to that point, I got the...

    DeLeon again

    As there has been a fair bit of posting concerning the DeLeon, I thought I'd add a recent experience with mine in case it may be helpful to others. Detected a tot lot and found some clad, but nothing special. Then while visiting my son we took the D out and checked out his yard which was...

    Tesoro's New Detector

    I'm not one that has written often about Tesoro's silence on what the newest machine will be, nor do I blame them for taking time to really work it over to avoid prematurely putting it on the market. However, that said, we've just passed the first of August and the summer detecting season is...

    Tesoro's single tone

    Recently, I made a short park hunt with a new to me Vaquero that has the high tone mod. Even though I'm just getting to know this machine, I've got a lot of hours in with Tesoros. I quickly noticed the tone difference when over a coin compared to the typical foil and junk. The discussion of the...

    My bad

    Was checking out several of my Tesoros the other day as winter is leaving. Anyway, I was having the devil of a time getting a proper ground balance over my yard which is pretty much trash free. I later discovered that I was trying to balance it over a piece of trash. I should know better than...

    Widescan coils

    Here's a question that wandered into my mind recently. I've read many times that the depth of an elliptical, widescan coil will be approx. equal to the width. IE, 6X10 elliptical would be around 6" etc. However, I got to wondering how that works if we're talkig about, for instance, a 9" Round...

    Grumpy Old Man's Rant

    I can't help but wonder what(or if) people are thinking when they post the question - "I have the chance ot hunt such and such a property or location what can I expect to find there?" Seems to me the only really valid or accurate answer to this is detect it and find out. How can anybody give a...

    Question - 10" Elliptical coil

    Would like to hear opinions and experiences using the 10" elliptical coil on the Vaquero. In theory it should have reasonable dapth, good ground coverage and work through trashy areas fairly well. This enquiring mind would like to know. Thanks - BB

    Just curious

    I picked up a used Vaquero a while back. Haven't used it much, but it air testing just to see how it compares, with the senstivity at 10 it didn't seem to be much deeper than my Eldorado

    Ny newest detecting pouch

    I recently found this at the local Home Depot. Generous pouch, multiple pockets, excellent belt - a bit under $20. The main pocket is deep enough to hold a longer screwdriver without losing it. BB

    Do Tesoros love Dimes?

    In a post further down, Tabman mentions the Cortez and deep dimes. I seem to find an abundance of dimes with any of my Tesoros. Don't know if others using different detectors miss them or if the parks I'm hunting just contain more dimes. Stands to reason that dimes are more often lost and not...
