    GB2 vs GB pro ?

    If the GB2 was such a sucessfull design why did Fisher change it so much for the new GB pro? How do they compare in the small gold department 71 khz vs 19 khz? Looking at getting a gold machine and wondering if I need the old or new.

    a little perspective

    This is why we dig all those pull tabs. I found my first gold item ever today with my tesoro Compadre. Its a large men's ring 7.5g. On my Xterra it falls into the pulltab/penny range. So this picture shows how many pull tabs I have dug to find one gold ring. This is actually not all my tabs...

    outlaw in my future

    Well I've had it with my Xterra 705, I just cant understand the language. I'm sure it is going over good stuff but it keeps telling me not to dig. I am selling it and getting an Outlaw and a Diablo umax if I can find one. I wanted a dual gold and tresure hunter detector but the xterra doesnt...

    Outlaw at the beach?

    Has anyone used the Outlaw at the beach? If so how does it work in the wet/dry sand? Curious how it compares to the Vaquero and the Lobo, recovery speed, depth, discrimination ect.

    TID quandary

    So I'm confused, the general consensus is dig everything that beeps. If you don't then you miss treasure. If you dig everything that beeps then whats the point of a TID number? Do any of you skip over any numbers, and why? Some people only seem to dig steady targets, but others report finds...

    Tesoro Cult

    There seems to be a cult like following for Tesoro that you don't really see for other manufacturers. I started out with a Compadre which is awesome. Then I betrayed the cult and got a Minelab. I fell like I did something wrong, the Minelab seems to be a good detector. It finds stuff, some...

    which 2 tesoros

    I just bought an Xterra 705 and its a nice detector but it isnt really working for me. I was torn between a Vaquero and the 705 and ended up with the 705. I got it because it has a beach and a prospecting mode. I am thinking of selling it and getting the Vaquero or another Tesoro. I mostly...

    Lots of Iron signals

    I have had the XT 705 for about a month now. I have used it in many situations like parks, nugget shooting, ghost towns, and open woodland. It seems that almost everywhere I go I get a huge number of iron signals. So much so that I have trouble getting any consistant sweeps. I have mostly...

    6" MF coil

    I have a few coils that I got with my XT 705. I have used the 9" MF and the 10.5" HF DD. I have the 10.5" MF DD and the 6" dd. Both of these coils have never been used. I am tempted to sell one so I can get the 6" HF DD coil. Has anyone used the 6" MF coil? What are your thoughts? I am...

    Coil use and falsing

    I went to an old town site this weekend. I used my 705 with the 9" mf and the 10.5" hf coils. There were a lot of nails. So much so that I would get 5 or more low tones on each sweep mixed in with a lot of highs. I didn't bring my 6" mf coil so I didn't have a chance to use it. I know there...

    XT elliptical coil problem

    I just got an XT 705 used. It is in great condition. It came with 5 coils, 4 of which work fine. The elliptical coil does not work, I don't get any of the error messages just alot of nothing. What could be the problem? The detector will do everything as though there is a coil there but it...
