    TRADE Teknetics T2 for Fisher CZ3D

    I have a basically new Teknetics T2, the green one. With owners manual. Would be interested in trading for a CZ3D. I know the T2 is capable of producing great finds, but I don't have the patience for new technology. I already own some other CZ's so I have extra coils, etc. Like to try out a 3D.

    Nervous about this CZ20

    I just bought a CZ20 and it is my first ever water detector. I'm actually afraid to fully submerge it! Are they normally very leak proof? One thing I noticed while just air testing it is that when the red led's blink I can actually see light through the plastic at the top edge of the control...

    Summertime headphones:cry:

    I've been using grey ghosts, but they are so dang hot!! What is a good, lightweight headphone? Also on a side note....for some reason my grey ghosts quit working with my Vaquero but still work in my other machines, other headphones still work in the Vaquero:shrug:

    Night hunting???:goodnight:

    Never night hunted before....as it begins to heat up here in Florida, it sounds like a good idea. Anyone care to share stories of there experiences night hunting? Do you get hassled by anyone?

    Coinstrike or CZ7a??? Any big difference:shrug:

    Don't know the first thing about a coinstrike, it looks an awful lot like a more modern CZ7a....is there more than looks? Do the coils interchange?

    Resisting the urge :nerd:to constantly upgrade!!

    After a long time away, I've been bitten by the treasure bug again! For years I had a Fisher 1225X, 1260X, and CZ5 collecting dust in the closet. Once I got the itch again...I dusted off the CZ5, only to find the batteries that were left in her leaked and destroyed the battery contacts. I sipped...

    Cast your vote....best state for metal detecting??

    It's real easy to envy those who live in Virginia for it's Civil war battlefields, or Massachusetts with it' 16th century homes, or how about the treasure coast of Florida for it's shipwreck gold! If you could take a treasure hunting trip somewhere, where would YOU go?:usaflag:

    How to hunt trashy sites

    Just left a 1920's homestite that was just littered with trash! The house has sat vacant for many years and evidently has became a hang out for teens or homeless persons. Pull tabs, beer and soda cans everywhere. How would you approach an area like this? Max disc...dig everything??? I managed...

    When did they stop making the X50????:confused:

    I was looking to buy a new X-50, and not having previous experience with minelab.....I went on the web for research. What I'm finding is nothing! Nothing on minelabs site except that it was introduced in 2005 and has been discontinued. I'm guessing that if it's very old, regardless if it's new...

    Air test has me excited!!:clap:

    Just got my new Vaquero! I tuned it per the instructions and the air test is incredible! When I first opened the box and saw a little purple, plastic toy, I was skeptical. I uploaded the kindle book from Amazon for some more tips. Man I'm excited and hope to try it out at old homesite today.

    Found a budget diggin tool with sheath

    I was in my local Tractor Supply store yesterday and found these nice little diggers for $10! Very light and thin profile, almost knifelike. It says blade is carbon/stainless? They seem to be pretty well made for the money but time will tell.

    Wanted Fisher CZ 5" coil with or without shaft

    Not looking for a new one or the cream of the crop, just want to give one a try. If you have one that works but has seen better days....I might be interested. Thanks:angel:

    Advice on getting permission to hunt:cry:

    There's an old vacant house I pass on my way to work, probably built around 1900. Recently they have began working on the old house. The yard is torn up with the installation of a new septic tank and the ruts left behind from the tractor. One day I noticed some guys working on the house and...

    Outlaw vs Cortes vs Tejon vs Vaquero help!

    I made a recent post asking why I should consider trying a Tesoro when I've used Fishers for over 20 years. I received some very good advice on that post, enough that I've decided to go ahead and give one a try. I have the opportunity to pick up any of the models I listed above, reasonably...

    Wanted Tesoro cibola, vaquero, Cortes, umax, etc

    I'm a long time Fisher guy that's always wanted to try a Tesoro. I see good deals come and go on eBay, but I just don't have the time to watch those auctions. Let me know what you have. Thanks

    Why buy an F70 when my CZ's work fine???

    I've never used any of the newer digi detectors......am I really missing out on anything? I have the opportunity to pick one up for around $300, which I guess is a decent price. It seems like people don't hold on to them like the treasured CZ5's. Can someone who transitioned to digital share...

    Can anyone convince a Fisher CZ5 user to try a Tesoro

    I've used nothing but Fishers for 20+ years. I've had good luck with them so it's easy to say if ain't broke don't fix it! If anyone has CZ experience, please share with me your thoughts. Also, what Tesoro model would be comparable to a CZ5? Thanks and let the fun begin

    Anyone ever found civil war relics in Florida?

    Man do I envy those of you that live in the battlefield states! Even before I moved to Florida I lived in Oklahoma, which also saw very little conflict. I guess there are those that would come to Florida to hunt beaches but has anyone hunted for civil war relics?
