    Fisher Gold Bug 2

    For clarification, are you using the factory coil on the GB2 compared to the F19 with Shrew coil? I think that is how I read it.

    Fisher Gold Bug 2

    Total WAG as I,ve never used the GB2. How small are the nuggets? From what I hear the GB2 excels at TINY gold. Could it be that your nuggets are big enough that the F19 does better on them and if they were even smaller the GB2 would do better?

    Beach confusion…

    My take on it. "no metal shovels/tools" A sand scoop is a tool and its made of metal. I dont like it or agree with it.

    overload signals on teknetics detectors

    If you did shut off the overload feature would it even be possible to now detect some small desirable target next to some large undesirable shallow target? I don't think so, so no benefit to turning it off. Or do you want to shut it off 'cause you are sick of listening to it?

    T2+ and Rechargeable Batteries

    Not odd at all to get three bars on fully charged nimh as they are a nominal 1.2 volt/cell vs 1.5 for alkalines. I cant explain why the f75 shows full though, might guess its just how the f75 meter is calibrated.

    Button ID?

    Found in Massachusetts. "Best Quality Guilt".The shank seems to be formed then soldered? brazed? to the back. The scale shows 1/16th marks. Any WAG for an age?

    Well here's something I just found out today when I called to get an update on my cz20 repair..

    Tony, it wasn't damaged in shipping, someone used 2 inch packing tape as a screen protector(?) what you see is the adhesive that remained after removing the tape. I know not to use any solvents on plastic so rubbed it off with my thumb, only took about 45 minutes to get it all off...except for...

    Well here's something I just found out today when I called to get an update on my cz20 repair..

    If I'm not mistaken Felix is more of a supervisor right? Felix is not rolling up his sleeves and repairing everyone's detector. So unless all the skilled techs also left, in the end it will be repaired just as well as pre-Felix. Myself, I was communicating with him via email and it was quite...

    I just bought a new f19

    Hey Monte I've got all 3 coils, ( 5,5X10, and 11biaxial ) and although I have not done side-by-side comparison testing of the 5X10 and 11", I gotta tell ya', that 11 aint no slouch, my gut instinct is its better than the 5X10. I use the 11 a lot, sometimes the 5, and the 5X10 is, well...

    GOLD BUG

    Actually I also do have the F19. Had the Gold Bug first and had been considering getting the F19 but when I heard they discontinued the F19 I had to buy one before they disappeared from distributor shelves. And aint that another stupid thing by Fisher...discontinuing the F19 and continuing the...

    GOLD BUG

    Just the coil and the name. I know, its stupid. I even had Felix at Fisher correct me that I have a DP, and not a Pro. Um... funny thing is the DP has two "Pro" designation stickers on it. LOL Even Fisher gets confused over this ! And what is it called when you add a different coil ; ) ?

    Newbie here

    I was starting to write an answer but deleted it as it might have all been irrelevant. Lemme ask you this, the nails you are finding, what are they ID-ing at? I am assuming you are in discrimination mode vs all metal right? (right knob turned all the way counter clockwise until it clicks)

    New Garrett Release : Jase Robertson Signature Edition Metal Detectors

    Does it work any better than the model that does not have camo, or a picture of some bearded dude on the box?

    cz6a coil cord repair.

    The generic answer would be cut,strip solder. Now I do not know EXACTLY what the problem is so really cant say more. Can you post a picture of the problem?
