    Off to the Ghost Town

    Should be an all day hunt.

    First hour and a half tests this morning revealed...

    It has some decent potential. I have some coins buried in our dry soil and a dime about 8" deep. Which back east is not a big deal but here...it is tough to get that deep...the F5 could not see the 8" dime.....my GMT 1650 did not nor did my Eagle II...but the F70 hit it no problem and in all the...

    Full F70 field test and report starting tonight....

    Well after thinking about it...and the fact that I need an ID machine for aghgost town hunt Sunday...I went and picked up an F70 at Cabelas just now. Before you think I am insane...Yes..Yes I am.....but that has nothing to do with it. First off I am not keeping it. Cabelas has a lifetime no...

    Nice Whites Eagle II sl 91 for sale

    I picked this up local and was going to use it...but hey...just going to use a Golden umax instead. This comes with stock 9.5" coil and a spare 8" Blue Max coil. This is the last version of the Eagle II before they went to the spectrum....I still think, as do many, this is one of WHites best...

    My mother wants to detect with me out in Havasu whree they live ( along the beaches and in the water a bit) and I was going to gut a golden umax and waterproof it.....so I am looking for a used golden umax. No junk...nothing that is broken....but a little used is cool. scott

    Well time to go...

    It seems that since I did not give a glowing report on the F5 I am just going to get slammed for it...heree and there and in emails and such. Hey guys...mine did not work....maybe it was just mine....could be....and lets hope it was. I have detected for 30 years and have used most models put...

    Took the F5 out today for a hunt....ended up taking it back to Cabelas after using it for a day...Saw an F70 while I was there!!

    Well first off the F5 is gone....shortest ownership record for me...48 hours. Basically it suffers from the same interference issues as the first T2's ....accept 10 times worse....seriously. I could not run the gain above 3 without a constant 1HZ pulsing beep. Tried alternate...

    If at first you can't find the answer....read the dang box (F5)

    The stock coil is a concentric coil.....says so on the box. Other coils are available...again need to see which machines of theirs run at 7.8KHZ> It also states that the GB range goes all the way down into the SALT range. SO one would assume it has a remote chance of working on a beach..not...

    F5 manual first 6 images

    this might work..and might not...lets see.

    Control panel photo

    Probably not much more in this pic than can be seen with the press release but here it is anyway. You can see the phaes it at 30something simply because the coil is in the air...it will just bounce around if it is not on the ground. Gb defaults to 82 when you turn it on and the D5 center display...

    Air tests and coil dimensions

    the coil measures 5 1/4 wide by 9 3/4 long...nothing in the manual states if it is concentric or DD that I have found so far. Someone asked for air tests so here are some common targets. Gain was set at 7 on a scale of 1-10....never have been able to detect at full gain...and above 7 it is too...

    The first F5 to be shipped has landed in my hot little hands...

    thenUPS did not show up until 1/2 hour ago....was getting concerned. Now I just assembled it, powered it up for a few minutes and need to read the manual and test it out side and on some coins so I don't have much to say. I will say this though, preliminarily it looks great. The pots they used...

    WIll have a Fisher F5 from Cabellas here tomorrow.....better not be one thing wrong with this one.....again...

    I must admit I do not have much faith in First Texas....which would be odd since I decided to order one of the few F-5's in the country. However I owned one of the very first T-2's and one of the first few F-75's. I ran them through the grind and was sad to see both were plagued with serious...
