    Has Anyone Heard Anything Yet?

    :cool: Hello fellow detectorists! Back in the winter people on the forums were saying that Whites might be coming out with a whole new detector line in May or June of this year. The reason was because the M6 and Prisms were not very popular with the hobbyists and the Garrett 250's were...

    Ranger Pro false signals

    :cool: I just got a Ranger Pro detector and I'm getting a lot of false signals. I tried lowering the sensitivity but it didn't help much. I also tried the 4 inch coil and that seemed to help just a little. It will even give a high tone at times when it is setting still. This seems like a very...

    Any Ranger Pro Users?

    :cool: Hi everyone! Has anyone ever used the Bounty Hunter "Ranger Pro" ? I think that either Cabella's or Bass Pro Shops sell them exclusively. How do you like it? How does it compare to the time ranger and is the target recovery time fast? I welcome any comments or questions. Happy Hunting...

    Strange Era in the Industry

    :cool: Is it just me or does this seem like a very strange time in this industry?:confused: I am a true Whites fan but right now they have NOTHING on the market that appeals to me and their older units are selling for amazingly high prices on Ebay. :shrug: Garrett made those little toy looking...

    DFX / XLT skunked by El Cheapos?:whites:

    :cool: I probably should'nt bring this up but I need some input from you DFX and XLT users. :detecting: I am thinking about upgrading but I keep reading a lot of posts saying that the DFX and XLTs are getting beat by some cheaper detectors. The latest ones were some Bounty Hunters, a Whites IDX...

    Beware of this company :unsure:

    :cool:I bought an Aquavision Pro underwater detector last year. It did better at my local swimming lake than I expected. I got it used off of E-bay from a "company" that sells them. Well they shipped me one that had a short headphones cord! I contacted them about it and they said "sorry but you...

    2007 "State of the Industry Message"

    :cool:Thanks to everyone who responded to last years industry summary. Things have not changed much. Whites still has not come up with a really good mid-priced detector .

    :whites:Time for new models...Please!!!

    :cool::whites: How many of you all agree that it's time for some new models? From what I hear and see on the forums there is a lot of disappointment with the little "Prisms" and people really liked the Classic series but that is discontinued. The M6 gets pretty good reviews, but where is the M1...
