    16" air test vs 12" air test

    Ok I would like to know how to get one of the 16" deep air test versions of the AT Pro like John Edmonton and Keith Southern have. So far the two that I have seen and tested at the Dealers have only been the 12" Air Test version like Pyledriver's. I have already told my Garrett Dealer that as...

    Has anything been found out about the Freq. Adj....on the AT Pro?

    Vaughn only mentioned it in passing as he was describing the other panel controls in the video without really discussing it. Not much at all is said about it in the online brochure. Is this for use in Competition hunts to eliminate interference from other detectors and/or other types of...

    The biggest problem with the AT Pro is....

    that Garrett announced it's release too early. It's giving people too much time to speculate, wine, imagine all kinds of problems, and pick the detector apart before anyone has even touched one or seen it other then in the videos and brochure!!!! They should have waited until there was just...

    Well things have gone from bad to worse

    Finally put the GB SE all together turned it on and found out it doesn't work right. The Dealer had assured me that this machine had been recalibrated at the factory and was now working perfectly and had been tested. I doubt it or they would have known it wasn't working!!!!! Well I guess they...

    Recieved Fisher GB today . Unfortunately....

    Now I need to know which Tek 11" coils work properly on it and how to tell them apart. When I ordered the GB SE with both coils from the Dealer I assumed (my big mistake) that I was getting the Fisher 11" coil designed for the GB SE. Personally I feel I should have been informed in advance that...

    What/Who are Frat Brothers coil?

    Is this an aftermarket company that makes coils for the Tek and Fisher detectors or is it just a catch name that people are using for some specially designed Tek or Fisher coil? Thanks Beachcomber

    Is it possible to hunt in the Analyze Mode?

    In the Video it looked like you had to reset the detector after every sweep of a target but was not sure if they were just doing that on the video or if it is a necessary operation. Thanks HH Beachcomber

    Comparison testing... my views

    I think there are have always been requests for comparisons when any new machine comes out no matter what the brand. There were a lot of comparisons when the Explorer 2 came out as well as the SE and E-Trac. The same with the F75. I think what brought it more to head hear was when they told...

    I surely understand the desire to keep the Vision forum on topic, just like the E-trac when it first came out,

    I agree we as a people tend to compare everything from cars to fishing equipment. To have your posts removed or even be banned from a forum for comparing detectors definitely not the American way. Censorship has been the way of other parts of the World but not here until now! JMHO HH...

    Some new test results....

    Each time I take the E-Trac out to the beach I try out at lest one thing different than I have tried before just to see how it effects performance and if it helps or hinders the way I like to hunt. If you remember from my last post a couple of weeks I had tried raising the Threshold tone to...

    Hit the beach for 4 hours this afternoon......

    Well the returned E-Trac seems to be working fine!!!! Thank You Minelab Las Vegas!!!!! After reading a Post earlier this morning that changing the Threshold Tone would shift the entire TID Tonal Range I decided to give it a try. After I set my E-Trac to my beach settings that I had come up...

    My E-Trac has returned home.......

    and it now turns on and off again :) Can't wait to get out and hunt with it this weekend!!!!!!! :) Interestingly enough I now have a much lower S/N than before. Go figure. Just thought inquiring minds might like to know ;) Personally I don't care what the S/N is as long as the detector works...

    Back from the Beach and 6 hours with the 15X12 SEF

    well I can say without hesitation this is the deepest seeking searchcoil I have ever used on a Sov. I dug several quarters and nickels in the 16-18" range and a toy truck at a depth I don't want to dig to again! :) This is an awesome coil but it is not without one little quirk. As with...

    15X12 SEF for GT

    Well I bit the bullet this week and ordered a 15X12 SEF Sov version this week. I have been reading a lot of good things about the SEF's both the Sov and Explorer versions. So I decided to give the Sov version a try first. If it's as good on the beach as everything that I have read both here...

    Well back to my trusty GT :(

    My E-Trac has bit the dust. Drove all the way down the Shore this morning went out on the Beach pushed the Power On Button and nothing happened :( I tried both battery packs and still nothing happened. It was fine when I shut it off last Sunday but now nothing. Called my Dealer and he said...

    Back from 4 more hours at the beach with the E-Trac

    First the good news In the dry the Auto Sensitivity ran itself all the way up to 29. In Manual at the same location I was able to run the Manual Sensitivity all the way up to 28 before there was any noticeable nulling or falsing. I could easily have hunted at Manual 28 in the dry sand and I...

    The E-Trac is definitely not an Explorer......more quirky little differences :)

    Spend the afternoon at the beach with the E-Trac and learned some new things about this new detector. First if you are looking for small targets don't use "FAST" When FAST is turned on it gave more broken signals and when you got to the edge of the detection range for a small target the signal...

    More depth and how to get it :)

    Managed to get in a couple of hours of beach hunting tonight. The targets tonight were all mosty deep. Very few shallow targets to I decided to try a little experimenting. I got a deep quarter signal. The sound was high pitched but somewhat broken up and the display showed 13-46 and the...
