    Why Tejon's ground balance knob spins 360* forever?

    I was handling a Tejon today at the local shop and of course it was no help asking the sales person as she knows nothing about most everything in the store except how to work the register. The Tjon ground balance knob has less resistance(easier) to turn and continually turns in either direction...

    You can have only 1 detector and its a Tesoro, which?

    If you had to limit yourself to only 1 detector and that one being a Tesoro because of the Liftetime Warranty and simplicity which unit would you choose for solid all around use?

    are certain frequencies really important?

    I read in tesoros information booklet that frequency doesn't really matter, but from other companies I've read it does for finding certain things like gold. I think tesoros highest frequency offered is 17.5 or so for the LoboST. Another company has one at 70 for their gold unit . Who is right...

    Do you find more with metered or Tesoro detectors?

    For those of you with multiple brands of detectors do you find that you may find more or make quicker decisions on targets with the digital metered units or the simple dial operation of most Tesoro units? Though I've never used a digital read out unit, I suspect it would hinder me with all the...

    What does the Tejon need to be better, if any?

    Is there a feature you'd like for the Tejon to have that it doesn't have that other Tesoro units do? I'm trying to understand its limitations before I buy. Is ground balance fully adjustable in ALL metal and full discrimination and everything in between? Thanks:smile:

    Compadre ground balance shift in discrimination?

    Does Tesoro ground balance the Compadre slightly positive, slightly negative or neutral at the factory? Is it based off all metal or discrim? Is the ground balance setting the same throughout the entire discrimination range or is it a tad different like in ALL Metal? I noticed when I'm holding...

    Jehovah Witnesses the only true Bible followers?

    I spoke to several Jehovah Witnesses at the park recently and they said they are the only ones that follow the Bible to its original meaning. Does that mean all the other sects of Christian churches wont be joining them in heaven? Which churches are on the true side of Jesus?

    Lobo doesnt detect gold dust, do any?

    I was reading the Lobo ST manual on Tesoros site and it said it wont detect gold dust. Around BB size it can. Can any metal detectors detect dust?

    Tejon the deepest on most targets?

    Is the Tejon Tesoros deepest detector on most targets? How does the LST or Cortez compare on coins?

    Would Jesus approve of all the gold and treasure coveting?

    Have you ever wondered whether Jesus would be ok with Christians using gold to decorate their churches and wearing it as an adornment while there are so many people in the world in basic need of food, clean water and shelter? I think of this much. Do the Catholics use the most gold?

    Are Tesoro prices fixed or are there good deals?

    Checking online all prices seem fixed at 15% off msrp. Same as local shop. Is there any way to knock the prices down a little more? The local shop here does sell Demo units at 20% off with clean warranty card, but may have a few scratches. Any online sources do better at pricing or is it all fixed?

    Tesoro Treasure Mate or Garret pointer?

    Which pointer do you prefer and why? The local Lifestyle Store has the popular Garret pointer and the Tesoro Treasure Mate pointer. The store owner told me she and her husband helped design the Tesoro Treasure Mate if I understood her correctly. She said its better for pointing to gold than the...

    Mormon Gold tablets? which detector, if any?

    I understand Joseph Smith found gold tablets in a secret cavern to start the Mormon religion. Did he use a metal detector to find them or did he just stumble upon them?

    Compadre sensitivity increase affect ALL Metal?

    So I did the previously posted Compadre sensitivity increase just short of chatter by turning the pot counterclockwise a tad. So if I understand correctly anything more conductive is even more apparent? Does this knock out anything in the ALL Metal band of the dial It seems everything has now...

    Auto ground balance inferior to manual?

    Is auto for only folks who like to keep it simple and not fine tune? What short comings if any does an auto ground balance have that one cannot do with a manual ground balance? Would the Lobo's auto ground balance miss out on any type of certain situation?
