    Buyer Beware!!!!!

    Just went out detecting with a buddy who owns a Fisher F 70. He thought it might be a good idea to get the 11"D coil.............because he does detect in some higher mineral areas. Bought it on a whim. He has been using the 11" DD for 8 months and says it's turned his F 70 into a "...

    Sad to say the era of "breakthroughs" has ended........

    ........I've been a detector user since 1970. I can honestly say that detector companies seem to be out of ideas........ breakthroughs!!! When I started, BFO technology was replaced by the TR breakthru! Then came the VLF breakthru...........then the normal speed VLF disc breakthru was next...

    What is the standard coil ..............

    on the G2 ???? They say it's biaxial ??? I'd like to know ...............is it concentric or DD wide scan?? I've found that the concentrics are superior for searching bottle cap infested areas. Is there a concentric coil available for this detector. Thanks for your replies.

    New Tesoro model teribbly overdue !!!!

    I would hope that 2012 will see a new Tesoro detector model.............. as it is now their lineup is very dated. A Tesoro dealer told me that he will reduce the amount of Tesoro detectors he carries if a new model doesn't come out soon. If new models keep on coming, it increases sales, Fisher...

    Re; Gold Bug PRO and Bottle caps..........

    Are we really moving forward??? Back in the late 70's and mid 80's I used a Whites blue box as well as the Wilson - Nueman GBD 2............. and they were excellent at knocking out bottle caps. In fact bottle caps were not any sort of issue. I hope Dave J will eventually give us a detector...

    Need coil advice on F70 ??

    I'm hunting a low mineralized dry sand beach area, with lots of rusty iron and new beer bottle caps. Recently a very experienced beach hunter told me, to use the stock concentric coil rather than the 11" DD. There is gold/silver jewelry and coins in these areas, in the soft sand sometimes it is...

    What makes the F5 special.....................

    In regards to jewelry hunting???? Am I missing something? I've heard it referred to as an exceptional unit for " inland jewelry hunting". Why? What techniques does it allow you to do, that for example...a F70 can't do? Would the higher frequency F70 not be hotter on gold as well?? Fill me in on...

    Broke a Garrett AT PRo users heart.........

    took the Fisher F 70 to do a bit of hunting around the Seattle area. My buddy Arnie, asked if he could come along....he has been using the Garrett AT Pro, he is an experienced Th'er with about 25 years of experience and has the AT PRO figured out quite well. Things got ugly when we decided to...

    F 75/F 70 users I need your help............

    Thinking of getting the F70 because it seems simpler than the F 75. Money is not a problem but ease of use is important to me. I've been told by some that the F70 is not a very good detector(much reduced detecting power) and that there is an oversupply of them? Is there any truth to this? Also...
