    a little more info on the F5 Ground balancing procedure. :biggrin:

    I just spent some time evaluating the GB procedure of the F5.......in four different hunitng spots of mine. What I wanted to test was the accuracy of the Phase lock procedure in AT mode.....AND in Disc mode. The regular procedure says to put it in AM first.....and then Gb it (the F5) What I...

    managed a couple of hours out this afternoon.

    didnt set the world on fire......but managed a couple of squeakers. Used the F70, with the DD coil. all were from a really beat cellar hole I've hunted for probably three years now, with at least 6 different machines. It did better than I thought it would! DE mode.....sens about 85.......... 0...

    images for Mike Scott

    its not been quite a week, but here are three pics as per mike Scotts request in the 28th. Found with F75, mostly in the last year/year and a half. one or two of the small reales may not have been found with the F75. Kind of lost track of exactly which ones were which, but the NUMBER of Reales...

    I "rediscovered" something interesting tonight...

    I thought I'd post it in case someone had a similar problem.. I had my F70 out in the backyard tonight........and it seemed to have a severe case of the heebiejeebies. Rang true on the targets in my test garden.....but was VERY noisey......with the ID's jumping all over the place...

    I have a question for Bobby.....

    Do you know if there are any Fisher pulse machines on the horizon?? I ask because we regularly attend a bi-annual hunt in Va....and the current theme seems to be RED HOT SOIL!!!!! The Red soil is the last bastion of Relic Hunting....as its hard to hunt with a VLF machine. Pulse machines RULE...

    If so.......give me a holler. Its brand new in the box...and I guarantee you it will be a better price than you can get anywhere else. make me an offer. no reasonable offer refused. I'll even throw in a Whites bullseye pinpointer. free.. Its used (the pinpointer). but in great shape. Mail me at...

    I have an unscanctioned solution to the "Tight coil connector" problem.

    I too was a bit concerned about how tight the coil connector is, and was worried I might break something eventually. When I got my little coil I REALLY had to pull to get it off after using it. I tried something I've done on virtually every machine I've had for the last 10 years, and it worked...

    a little story.....

    Since it was such a nice nite tonight, I thought I'd pop down to one of my old standby sites to do a bit of beeping before it got dark. I turned the machine on, and did a quick fast grab(or so I thought), and started swinging. The 75 was almost intolerably noisy, and when I tried to GB it...

    question on a water machine....

    can anyone recommend a good salt water machine for a lady friend of mine?? She uses a minelab Excal right now, but wants a lighter more user friendly machine. any suggestions?? Will be used on the salt east coast beaches. She does not want a pulse machine! plase send any relpies to my email...

    got my replacement machine today!!!

    the turnaround time was just over two weeks, but am very satisfied with the service I got. Got home from a job I was on today, and she was sitting on my front porch waiting for me.. Only got a few minutes to check it out (worked 12 hours today in the heat, and all I wanted was a beer and a...

    kudos to First Texas...

    For some fine customer service! As some of you know, I had to send my X75 back in, as it developed a problem. I got a call from Mike Scott today (a hell of a nice guy...I've detected with him before)wanting to know a bit more about the problem, as they were not able to isolate it. Not two hours...

    got kind of an odd one today...

    dug this 1826 half cent with the number three stamped into the center of both sides. I've dig lots half cents over the years, but never one with any kind of markings. Also got a rosie, 40 merc, a couple of wheaties, two dog tags, a few round balls, and two tombacks.Used the 75 in a rather tame...

    Hey fellas, I have a request............

    There has been talk from a number of guys about the shortcomings of the manual suppled with the F75. We may have the power to do something about that. I've been corresponding with a few of the powers that be, and think we can encourage fisher to subsidize a much better manual, or "how to" book...

    this would have been sweet....

    if it were in one piece!. cant tell from the pic, but there is still a fair amount of silverwash on the buckle. Would have been nice to get this one intact!! <center><img src="http://home.ptd.net/~xlt1/c_buckle.jpg"><br>

    had the chance to really put the F75 throught its paces...

    Finally had some serious time to devote to checking this critter out, and thought I'd share my findings/views with those of you still learning the F75. I spent a little more time in my test garden before heading down to a VERY hard hunted spot I've hammered for probably about 4 years now. This...

    first impressions

    I like it. depth isnt quite what I'd hoped, but it gets VERY good target separation. Easy to use and very intuitive controls. If the preliminary tests in my hammered cellarholes is any indication, its very good in iron ridden sites. Light and well balanced too. Nice tight audio response, and I...

    Minelab Sov Elite FS

    like new (used only one time) Sov Elite with 10" coil, and meter. Have too many detectors already. This one needs to go. First reasonable offer takes it. I dont have a pic of this but can provide one if requested. As I said, it has been in the Field ONCE. Not my cup of tea............. reply...
