    Been out for awhile!

    Haven't posted for some time now. Had a computer crash in the early summer time frame. Back online now with new system and new internet. Can't believe how much one can miss this danged technology. Hunting this year has been very unproductive. Seems that the beach goers are wearing junk...

    Secrets of Gold Jewelry Hunting!

    Tesoro is known for finding gold jewelry, especially chains, which are extremely hard to detect. Just a few observations from using my Tesoros in past years. First and foremost - dig the junk! Run your disc just at the iron setting, even if there is moderate trash. You will have to dig lots...

    Water resistant vs waterproof coils?

    Why does Minelab make their double "D" water resistant, and not water proof? Just bought the Double "D", even though I knew it was just water resistant. All the other manufacturers make all their coild waterproof! Heard nothing but good about the Double "D", and will be anxious to try it out...

    Deepest Tesoros Made?

    I currently own 9 Tesoro metal detectors. Guess I am "ate up" with them. Was doing some thinking about past years metal detecting with different models from the Tejon down to the cheaper models, and have come up with my own conclusion about depth with different models. What really boggles my...

    Anyone got the new Tigershark yet???

    Ordered mine when Tesoro first announced that they were going to re-start production with hard wired coils. Just curious if they are starting to trickle out to dealers yet? Plan on using mine in fresh water sites. Have the Excal for salt conditions. Might try it in salt to see what it can...

    Tesoro Cortes for sale, or possible trade for the right water machine.

    Cortes is in very good condition. Very deep runner, all metal and disc mode. Sum mode helps on difficult target I.D's. Lighted display for those early morning or evening hunts. Can ground balance in the all metal mode - and the target I.D. works in the all metal mode. All functions an...

    Silver finds in the past few months

    I posted my gold items yesterday. So here is some more eye candy for you. Chains are hard to find, especially the smaller ones. The Tesoro machines that run in the 14-17khz range can sure find them. I have compared other brands with the smaller chains. They can barely pick them up, and the...

    A few finds since October

    Just showing you some finds from October until today. Found a Tungsten ring and a 14K with attached heart. The heart ring is actually 7 stacked rings that are held together by the clasp that has the little heart on it. Never seen anything quite like this one. The 5 rings in the second...

    Merry Christmas to all my Tesoro Brethren!!!!

    Hope Santa blesses you all with all kinds of Tesoro products!!!! Already received my present from Santa, my 9th Tesoro detector. It is also one of the least expensive detectors that Tesoro makes (Silver Umax). Weather is a tad cold in my part of Missouri to get out and check it out. Will...

    Spoke with Tesoro today on phone

    Thought my Bandido was busted. Just turned out to be a bad coil. Anyway, tired of all the negative posts on Tesoro, so I just asked how they were doing these days. The repairman that I spoke to, said that they have had to hire 30 percent more employees this year just to keep up with demand...

    Any jewelry experts out there?

    Found a ring today. Heavy gold and platinum. Down about 3 inches. Registered a 45 to 50 on the DFX. Inside the band it is labeled 18KL & PLAT B.B. What does that mean? Any help on this one would be greatly appreciated. Can't find anything on the net. Bulletman

    To E-trac or not?

    To all you e-trac users: Is the e-trac worth the 1500.00 dollars compared to other high end detectors. Been detecting for about 25 years now, and my high end machine is a DFX. Used about every other high end detector sold over the years. One of my favorites was the original eagle spectrum...

    Fellows: What's the most dependable pinpointer?

    Drove 50 miles one way today to detect at a good location. Got there and dug a few targets and my white's pinpointer went on the fritz. I have been thinking about the Garrett and the Detector pro model. What do you think? Bulletman

    Just purchased my 7th Tesoro, original Bandido!

    Doing a little backtracking on technology this time. Used to look at these early 90's detectors in catalogs - and could never afford one. Looking forward to running this machine to see what she will do. That is if we don't freeze up too soon. Bulletman
