    I Forgot How Heavy this Thing Is

    I hunted for two years with the XS before trading it. I relic hunt most of the time and it just wasn't my favorite relic machine. On the other hand, I have missed it terribly for coin/jewelry hunting. NOTHING I've ever hunted with did better on deep silver. Well, I have settled on a relic...

    Took the F75 for a spin today (Pics)

    Took the F75 out today and found all the stuff in the following photo. Man, I love this detector. This is one of the newer ones that just shipped. Today was my first hunt with this unit. My older F75 will now be my backup. I believe that shows what I think of this new Fisher. Does anybody...

    As soon as my new F75 arrives. :bouncy: That's right. My primary machine and my backup will now be the same. Fortunately I have my F75 while I wait on the new ones to be released. I've been hunting since '91 and have owned every major brand of detector and every supposedly good relic...

    Dave Johnson's Comments on the F75 Coils

    "The new searchcoil that will come with the F70 is in the F75-compatible series. Being a concentric it will offer better discrimination on shallow targets esp. steel bottlecaps, and easier pinpointing. The 11 inch DD will normally beat it on discrimination of deeper targets, and on target...

    Finally Made a Relic Hunt With the X-70

    While I have been impressed with the 70 as a coin/jewelry detector, I didn't take it to the relic field till yesterday. I hunted a hay field that I have scoured many times. I only go there when I am trying out a new machine. I hunted in coin and treasure mode in all metal, 30 sensitivity, 4...

    First X-70 Field Test

    My buddy and I were close to a site we had hunted to death. In fact, we hadn't returned in 2 years. I suggested we stop and see how the lady who owns the property was doing. After stopping, we decided to hunt this very well hunted area. The X-70 was in all metal with four tones. I used the...
