    Classic SL IDX

    Not a big deal, but Whites did not go "belly up". Ken White just got old, and didn't have anybody to leave his business to. And apparently, he couldn't work a deal with his employees to take over the company. That's a long ways from going "belly up".

    vista detectors

    Yup...it has a wider range than the Warrior or Gold Gain, for sure. Though the way the Warrior works suited my detecting just fine. I do like the "alternate" discrimination feature of the X, though. The biggest reason I bought an X is the adjustable iron volume in the two-tone mode. The iron...

    vista detectors

    I know little about the Smart. But, there are videos on Youtube that will have details on its discrimination ability. I really like all three of my Deeptechs, but I detect where there is iron trash, but few pulltabs, and little foil. Jim

    Fiberglass Fly Rods

    I was a dyed-in-the-wool flyfisher many years ago. We fished a perfectly clear spring creek not far away, and it had super wary trout. We'd have to us 2lb leaders, and make downstream casts. These were good-sized fish, too. The only rods that were limber enough to not snap leaders were the old...

    DeepTech Vista Gold continues to impress

    Yessir, that two-tone mode is why I bought the Warrior, Gold Gain, and now the Vista X. I detect way out in the sagebrush along old two tracks. I like being able to hear the iron, as well as the good stuff. If I start getting a lot of the iron targets, I can assume there was more activity in...

    Vista X coil comparisons

    Yup, JCR's right. It's all about where you're detecting, and what you're looking for. I detect where there's little trash, so go with the 12" on my Warrior, and plan on using the the 13" on the Vista X next spring. But occasionally we find a habitation area out in the boonies, and the smaller...
