    My new G2

    I received my G2 on Friday and was able to take it out for a couple of hours on Sunday. Hands down the best detector I have ever used for ease of use and target ID and disc in trashy areas. This same park gave me alot of problems with EMI with my Omega...G2 was all the way up on gain and...

    Well, I did it, broke down and bought a G2

    Hope all I have read is true on it. I finally got fed up with the EMI issues with my Omega, as honestly 50% of the places I hunt "in town" I have to turn it down to 50 or below to quiet the machine down. Cintitomcat and I have hunted several times together and he has seen what I am referring...

    Tesoro Vaquero FS 250$ shipped

    I have a used Tesoro Vaquero selling for 250$ shipped. She is used with some cosmetic wear and tear blemishes...but not too bad. I can email pics. Works good and goes deep. Personal best is a 58. cal minie ball at 11" while supertuned. No trades please.

    Todays hunt...Silver and Gold!

    Hunting today at a local park with Cintitomcat and we both did good. Check out his post for the cool Indian design silver bracelet and Barber dime he got. I found a silver medal from 1934 and a 14K gold band ring with the Omega. Hope for more good finds tomorrow.

    Omega finds rare CS bullet

    For as much as I rag on the Omega for not being that great of a relic machine, she has found me some great relics in the past year. The past two days of relic hunting did not produce a large quantity, but did get me a fairly scarce Confederate pistol bullet. It is M&M #97 a Richmond Labs foreign...

    First CW relic hunt of New Year w/ Omega, but...

    Got the new year off to a great start with a trip south to visit my folks and get in some relic hunting with my dad. He just got a Garrett ACE 350 for Christmas and he and I hit the CW picket post we found this past Nov. We had a good hunt with the highlight being a portion of the trigger guard...

    G2 and EMI concerns?

    Really need some feedback on the G2 and EMI. I love my Omega , but about half of all the sites I hit I experience bad EMI....even if the power lines are VERY far away. I understand that all the new detectors from First Texas (Fisher F series, F75, Tek Omega, Gamma)have problems with this due to...

    Omega display loosening up

    I noticed a week ago a "slop" feeling to my Omega when sweeping. It felt like slop in the shaft, but I found tonight that it is actually the display/control unit loosening up on the pistol grip. Anybody else had this happen? It looks like the only way to tighten it back up is by taking apart the...

    Todays hunt with Omega

This bullet is about a 55-57 caliber. The type found on Civil War...

    Omega finds capped bust silver!

    Well, I have been detecting for about 30 years, two months ago I got my very first capped bust silver.... a quarter. The only problem was it had been holed right where the date was. Still it was a capped bust silver. Today I got my second! I went CW relic hunting today and the day was going...

    Vaquero VS. Omega

    Well they don't allow comparisons on the Teknetics board, so I hope this is OK here. I was a die hard CW relic hunter for many many years up until 10 years ago, at that point I got out of it but came back last December. My main detectors years ago were a Fisher CZ-5 and a Tesoro Sidewinder for...

    The wife and I hunted for three hours yesterday and found these 3 CW relics with the Omega: iron stirrup, machine goove 54 cal Minie MM# 410 and a 69 cal Musketoon Minie MM# 293. I am now turning the Omega over to my wife and I have added a Tesoro Vaquero as my new relic hunting machine. I still...

    Depth comparisons between Cibola, Vaquero, Tejon

    Can anybody give real world information on depth differences between the Cibola, Vaquero and and Tejon? Yes, I know the Cibola lacks the ground balance of the other two, but I am limited on money at the moment and am wanting to get one of the 3 to use with the 10" X 12" DD coil for hunting open...

    EMI prob with Omega rears ugly head again

    First, I LOVE my Omega. But several days ago I had the opportunity to hunt a CW campsite in Central Ky (THANKS RICK!)...the site is a large pasture with overhead high tension power lines around two sides of it. Even being more than a football field length away from them I could not get my...
