    Why do metal detector companies equip their detectors with the wrong coil??

    As a standard stock coil. For example Whites.....(just as an example but they are all doing it.)......... is fond of giving you a 10" coil on most of their detectors as a stock coil. This is stunned!!! Have they ever tested this coil in your average metal/trash infested park? (where most people...

    2016 will be a big year for Tesoro......

    either they will make it pull through and hang on or they will be bought out by someone else.There is only so much time left...yes they made good products but we are no longer in the 80's. Technology moves on ...sure your 1980 Sylvania color TV works but are you still watching it? I bet you...

    Cz3D and G2....... question on their abilities....

    for finding gold rings and jewelry. Does the multifrequency make an incremental difference or a major difference? A buddy of mine seems to think that the Cz3D will leave the G2 way behind. I'm not hunting wet salt sand but mainly parks/ballfields and "dry sand" beaches. I tried a CZ5 once and...

    Whites being less than honest.......

    looking at geting one of their detectors...but i don't like their practice of omitting the detectors weight in their "full specs" section on every detector.Full specs........... in my world would include the detector's weight. I'm still planning on buying the MXT Pro but why won't they tell me...

    Save up your Christmas cash.........

    ............from what I'm hearing from dealers...............2016 will be quite the year for new metal detector introductions. I just wish there would be some " breakthroughs" rather than just tweaking of models/features. When I started detecting in the 70's it was the golden age of metal...

    Wondering about the G2 reputation.......

    I'ts supposed to work wonders in trashy iron infested areas. This is really overhyped. I don't get it!! This detector id's rusted bottle caps as "high zone coins". It just can't go quiet over any of the rusted caps or iron slaw i've come across. I'm amazed how the old detectors that I used in...

    Need a bit of help........

    Hope that the info is accurate as I plan to purchase based on the responses. I need to know if the Fisher 6.5" Eliptical coil will work on the G2?
