    Tesoro Elderado

    Is it an 'original' Tesoro Eldorado or the Eldorado in the small microMAX housing? What Search Coil is with it? Monte

    Always 'spot-on' to very slightly positive. Monte

    Pinpointers What’s your favorite?

    I have an AT ProPointer with my Tesoro's, one with an F19, one with a FORS Relic, one with an F5. They all work great and pair it the MS3's. Monte

    I'm going back in time instead of moving forward

    The F5 is one versatile detector. Very adjustable GB in the Disc. I am looking for a 5" Concentric coil for my F5 as it makes a great general purpose detector/coil combination. Monte

    1st Memorial Tesoro rally

    A really great idea, RG, and I hope more can be planned for other countries. Tesoro's are a really well-known brand, world-wide, and the absolute best analog detectors for anyone to consider to carry on is one of the DeepTech offerings. :thumbup: Hope all goes well next month. Wish I was...

    Loretone Rock Tumbler

    Just short of thirty years on my twin-barrel and it runs fine, but I need to replace the two rubber caps/boots that go around the metal sealing caps as they finally started to wear out. But that's after countless cleaning sessions of unbelievable clad coins, plus almost all of my sliver and...

    Is there an 'update' for Nokta's Service Center ???

    Good news. Andy sent me a txt an hour ago. I had o fill out the Service Center form with my info and detector info. I sent that back to him and we have had a cupola of back-and-forth texts. All sems okay now and I can get my Racer 2 serv iced before spring gets her.

    Is there an 'update' for Nokta's Service Center ???

    I have made four or five phone calls to Andy at Nokta / Makro Service here in the USA this week. Never an answer so I left messages. Never a return phone call, and I described what service I needed on my Racer 2. Also inquired about a 7" Concentric Racer coil. Never a call-back. What's...

    Need your input??

    If we are just talking 'analog' detectors, most of my favored Tesoro's have been very good, and quiet, working in some tough EMI challenged areas. Also, I had a couple of DeepTech Vista X units (and plan to recquire one) that were also very good in EMI areas. Monte

    Detector Brands

    I know nothing about the Bulgarian unit. Never had a liberator. Did own a Patriot. But of those you listed, I owned 3 of the F-44's and enjoyed them all. One had the 11" BiAxial (just means Double-D) coil which isn't my favorite and it was soon sold. One I kept the 5" DD coil on for working...

    Pinpointer question

    I do not have one. I borrowed one once and ought to have buried it in the recovery hole. I would neve buy one. I like my Vanquish 540 Pro Pack unit for certain applications, but I mainly use the Garrett AT ProPointer w/Z-Lynk ability. I have a good detecting buddy who bought a Vanquish to...

    Legend/Equinox 600/Deus

    Commandor, ], if I may, let me share some thoughts regarding your situation. First, you are new to this forum, so welcome. How long have you been metal detecting? Do you only have the Nokta Simplex +, and which search coil(s) do you have for it? You stated you like to search in the woods and...

    I see First Texas is selling new F70's

    Diggin' B, I am looking for a new 5" DD for my F-19 Ltd. If you or someone who now has a new 5" want to part with it, please drop me an e-mail: monte@stinkwaterwells.com It is not the same coil as the 5" for the F-70 & F-75, but maybe you or somebody has what I need. ??? Thanks, Monte

    New smf detectors

    New smf detectors

    And now, for the last 11 years or so, Minelabs are being made in Malaysia so it isn't always a matter of brand name or location where they are made. I have heard positive things about several Quest models and what they offer for the $$$$. However, I am a devoted fan of smaller-size coils that...

    I'm going back in time instead of moving forward

    Both modern and earlier tech can be good. The F-5 is a very functional detector. I like my two favorite Tesoros' V-540, F-19 Ltd., Racer, FORS Relic, XLT, and they all work well and find what I am after. Monte

    Advice needed for 10 yo boy detecting.

    If he is 10 and Dad wants him to get serious and learn, and share with brothers and sisters, get the Apex. Add the 5X8 Ripper coil and you have a very good set-up. Monte

    Flying "HIGH" on 4kHz!

    Frequencies and/or coils. Always an interesting topic. The first of March I wrap up 58 years I've been using metal detectors, and I have been using, and prefer, smaller-size coils since the summer of '68. Currently have and use 7 detectors with coils mounted on them that are 5", 6" or 6½"...

    Anybody using the New Gold Hound for Relic Hunting

    Rick, I have heard a couple of other reports on the Gold Hound and, if all goes well, I hope to have one by our June WTHO in Nevada for Gold Nugget Hunting. For everything else I have hunted where I encounter a lot of higher mineralized ground as well as dense amounts of Iron Nails and other...

    Coils For The G2

    One of my current detectors is the Fisher F-19 Ltd. which is in the same 'family' as your G2. I used the G2 when first introduced for a couple of years but prefer the F-19 / G2+. Is your unit the original G2 or the G2+? Just curious, but they share the same coils. Seldom have I really...
