    My water proof Compadre

    I just finished my water proof compadre mod. The compadre is the first detector that I bought and I still like it the best. I got a new 7" compadre and decided to mod my old 5.75" verison in to a water machine. It has volume, and sens, and disc on the inside (waterproof pots are $50 each so I...

    7" compadre

    I saw a 7" compadre in a little mining shop yesterday. They wanted $99 for it. I didnt buy it but it was sooo tempting. Looked to be used in great shape. Its kind of a rare bird now days.

    Outlaw Compadre 4 coil airtest

    I posted this on another forum and just realized I didnt put it up here so here you go. I put a coil connector on my Compadre. Some of the guys over at Findmall asked me to do an air test to see how it performed. Well I finally got it done and here are the results. I figured that it would be...

    Aftermarket coils for nuggets?

    has anyone used the large ultimate coil for nugget hunting. I have been wanting a GB pro for years now and am thinking of getting one. I have a GM 2 that is getting old and I want a new nugget shooter. Not sure how the GB pro will compare. I had a Xterra 705 that I didnt like much. When I...

    Infinium instability.

    I am starting to wonder if there is something wrong with my finny. It works great for awhile and then becomes unstable, works one day and not another. I cant tell if it is a GB problem or if it is having a cable problem. I used it today both dry and wet and it was hit or miss. I turned it on...

    minelab detectors is it worth it?

    I am really into nugget hunting, and detecting in general. I have an Infinium and a GM2. I am looking at getting a GMT and would really like to try a Minelab PI. My question is, is it worth it. I used the Infinium and didnt like it much. Worked great on the beach but not a really good...

    coil suggestion for yourself

    I have beeen detecting for years. I have come to a important conclusion. Use the smallest coil you can! I have aCompadre, poeple say its a great jewlery detector. I compared it to my Outlaw and it isnt as good with the same size coil. I resd some posts about the mxt. They said to use the 5.3...

    Outlaw question

    I have had my Outlaw for awhile now and it is a great detector. However I feel as though I am missing something. I never use the AM mode and I have no idea what the retune button does, aside from pinpointing use. Also for GunnerMN. I have noticed you use the 7" widescan coil in most of...

    Compadre in the trash

    I have been hunting an old town site. It is loaded with iron and I have found very little non ferris metal. I have only turned up one silver coin which appears to be an 1803 Mexican Reial. It was sitting on a gopher mound and I could have seen it just as easily as detected it. I have hunted...

    outlaw vs compadre

    I know this sounds like a strange face off, but those of us who have Compadres know what is up. I recently modded my Compadre to use other coils. I found something interesting. The Compadre hits gold deeper than my outlaw, in air tests. While the place where gold discs out is considerably...

    I posted this in the Minlabe SD,GP,GPX forum and got no response so I am going to try here. How small of gold will these detectors find? Which one was the first to consistantly find sub .1 gram nuggets? Also there is a guy in town that has a good condition GP3000 for $1900. Is this a good...

    coil confusion

    I am confused about Tesoro coils. Their website does not show a 10x12 widescan coil for umax detectors. The Outlaw has one standard? The pictures I have seen of the 10x12 concentric looks like a 8x9 concentric. I think a 10x12 concentric coil would be great for depth but I'm not really sure...
