    A few F-75 observations... (potentially long)

    I thought I'd post a few of my initial F75 first impressions and hunting observations. Please keep in mind, these are MY opinions (mileage may vary for others). This is also coming from the perspective of a person who has never used a T-2 (so can't help you on those comparisons). I am however...

    Another sighting....

    Things just keep getting more interesting! This image was captured in a wooded area in texas near the First Texas headquarters. Employees stated they heard a noise in their top-secret experimental department, and when they investigated they saw a large, hairy creature bolting for the door with...

    Mysterious object sightings are beginning to trickle in...

    What could it be? Witnesses report brief glimpses of an object screaming through the skies and fields of Texas. Little is known of the origin or agenda of the mysterious visitor. People on the scene of a recent sighting describe it as "black and gold, with a distinctive "F" on it...it was hard...

    keep saving those clad finds.....

    That clad may come in handy! I ran across this story and thought you "cladiators" out there may get a kick out of it. pennies HH'n Mark in NC

    Bill Ladd, First Texas and Fisher... (one guys opinion) (and probably too long)

    I've sat back and watched the various threads on this forum come (and go :) ) with the interest you always have when a new detector is on the horizon. One of the truly fun parts of this hobby for me is the anticipation of a new machine being released... personally I get that "little kid at...

    On the hunt...

    There's a legendary battle that took place in my neck of the woods back in the 1700's between the "torries and the whigs". The only "real" information I've been able to put together so far has been oral history passed down for several generations. One thing that seems to be consistent is that a...

    The Ol' C$ keeps reminding me why i luv it....

    I had a few minutes free on Sunday, so I decided to hit an old school yard in the middle of town that EVERYONE who has a detector hunts. It has pretty much quit producing now, but occasionally one will pop up. I've pounded this place with every detector I've owned, and the undisputed winner for...

    Ernesto helped me out a little... (gold) :)

    My wife had to take a trip to the beach for a training conference...hmmm..what to do, paid hotel room, a week at the beach, and a tropical storm coming.. Being a good husband I of course went with her! :) Horrible hunting all week, pull tabs and pennies.. until the day after Ernesto blew...

    A few vacation at the beach goodies...

    I have discovered that vacation week enters into some kinda "twilight zone" time warp! It absolutely flies by! Anyway, I managed to get out almost every day and do a little "sand pirating"... I had a bunch more weights and pennies but gave 'em to kids that were following me around.. (I felt...

    Amazing how the clad piles up...

    I started going through my jars of detecting finds and was surprised how quick the stuff adds up! I have a habit of hitting a school yard, and just dumping all the "interesting" stuff into a coffee can, jar, or whatever. I had forgotten how many rings, necklaces and bracelets were mixed up in...

    Anyone tried the FZ-12 on the beach?

    I have a CZ3D and the FZ-12 looks like it would give some great coverage and depth for wet sand hunting. I was just curious if anyone had tried it in the wet, salt sand. Thanks

    Instead of negative junk on the Fisher/First Texas deal, why don't we look at the positives?...

    In my humble opinion, I see very few ways to lose from this deal. IF Fisher were a "bad" or "futureless" company, why would Cohu or First Texas have purchased them?.. First Texas has made it known they are dead serious about being in the "high-end and professional" market. My thoughts are, of...

    did a little "playground plundering" over the weekend..

    finally got out to hunt with the ol' Coinstrike a little. I found the usual battery money, and a cool little "jenuwine" gold bracelet. First gold of the year for me (hit as a solid "10" on the ID scale)! HH'n Mark in NC

    Will the new retail T-2's come standard with the update?

    I've been a long time fan of Dave Johnsons work, so I've been following this forum with quite a bit of enthusiasm. Like for all of you folks, money doesn't grow on trees (although we seem to "pick" it out of the ground) :) Thanks, Mark in NC
