    Teknetics Omega 8000

    I use a Fisher F5 for most of my coin shooting(great machine). I recently saw a great deal on the Omega 8000, is there much of a performance upgrade or other benefit by moving to the Omega?I don't need a deep relic machine, I've got a CZ for that. What say ye, Dave J.

    Loss of Signal on F5

    Most times I don't even use the pinpoint button with the F5, I just X the target. But sometimes when I do use the the pinpoint feature while in disc mode, I have a good repeatable signal, and when I press the pinpoint button I lose the signal completely. The end result is I end up Xing the...

    Vaquero vs Bandito umax

    I really like my Vaquero(high tone) and I'm looking at a Bandito umax. If you have experience using BOTH of these machines I would appreciate your comparison. Is the Bandito going to out perform the V in some areas, depth, more definition in the signal sound with different targets, etc. Thanks

    Golden Umax GB

    Has anyone ever added an external GB adjustment to this machine, seems like it would be a good mod, except for your warranty.

    Vaquero VS Eldorado Umax

    I currently use a V machine which is my first Tesoro. I am quite please with the performance, especially the fast retune. Having thoughts of picking up a Eldorado Umax. What differences or advantages would I see with the E compared to the V, besides not having the HOT technology. I hunt coins in...

    M6 Auto Trac

    When you switch to the lock position, does it lock in at a preset ground bal value, or does it lock it where ever the auto value happened to be at that time?

    MXT vs M6

    Is the M6 the same as a MXT with less features and programmed modes? Is there any difference in depth?

    Vaquero Supertuned

    When I set the V to boost on sens and max my threshold its unstable to the point that I can't hunt with it. Would it run smoother if the GB was set slightly negative? Is there anything that helps besides backing off the sens? Thanks Sqwaby

    V ground balancing

    Not always, but sometimes when I ground bal aned lower the coil the audio threshold will increase as if bal pot needs to be turned counter clockwise. When it gets 1-2" from the ground the audio nulls(loss of audio threshold) but comes back to the original threshold setting when the coil is on...
