    I was reading Lost treasure last night and the autor of one of the articles was really pushing the Tiger Shark. I also seen an ad for one in the June issue. Last I knew, you could not get one because of parts shortages. Has that changed and are they available again? Steve

    10x12 SEF

    The big brown truck let me a 10x12 SEF on my porch today. Installed it, and did some air testing, all seems good. Just got to get rid of the snow to see if it is good as everyone says it is. It is just fun to think of getting back out there and swinging again. Steve K

    My first message on Finds, just wondering if there is any market for used 1225x and 1260x. I have both, but have no idea what value to put on them. I would like some idea before listing them in classifieds. Looking to purchase a newer detector. Thanks Steve
