    lots of folks are looking for that magic setting on their favored model, I'd say just as important, is coil sweep :twodetecting:

    ..Well it ain't that easy to get to the finer art of coil sweep, just trial and error with your favorite settings on your preferred metal detector on a naturally buried target found, not a fresh buried coin. With my slow motion 2 and 3 filter detectors like my IDX Pro or MX5, I use a side to...

    Hey Monte, if you're going to quote the MX5 manual at least get it right :shrug:

    Hi Monte, ...I'm sure you did not intend to misquote the MX5 AutoTrac info from the manual...BUT here is what you wrote, taken verbatim from the BEACH mode info in the manual....... {IN RED} "Because the track range now includes the entire ferrous region, it is possible for iron targets to...

    First Set Of Batteries Review Of The MX5

    Ok Guys and Gals, ...I can usually tell if I'm going to click with a new detector in the first few hours of operation. I have over 15 hours on my MX5 and with only one bar of battery used, I'm really liking it. It is a battery miser.... I have never owned any of the MXT series, so I was not...

    I don't know whether it's just me, or is anybody else having issues with the forum

    I notice a lot of posts getting cut off, almost like the posts are edited/moderated But do not make any sense. Then this morning I get on the "Finds Treasure Forum" and a different page comes up for a chicken hatchery, something is screwy:shrug:

    TID or not TID, that is the question.......

    greetings fellow Tesoro fanatics.. .....As we all know, it has been anything but boring on this forum with all the debates about what direction Tesoro has taken with the introduction of the "new" OutLaw and whether Target ID detectors are better than non-metered detectors. My opinion is that I...

    My wife's new DeLeon:inlove:

    A little background on the wife and I.......We both started detecting in 1995, my wife with the then new Tesoro Toltec ll and me with the new White's XLT. Both detectors are target ID models, but worlds apart as far as electronic design and theory. The White's is a computerized, microprocessed...

    I think this Outlaw should be given a new trial:shrug:

    Hi fellow fans of Tesoro, I think the grand premier:clapping: newest offering from Tesoro:drinking: got off on the wrong foot yesterday, But it has people talking about it, you know the 'ol saying from Hollyweird "bad press is better than no press". Well I think it applies here. There is a new...

    OK Folks, I've been asked by several people to explain how I did my coin garden, since I have the time and I like to share.........here it goes. First, you have to be in an area where the soil is clay based and compacted well, sandy soil will not work well. I live in the wheat capitol of the...

    Super tuning the High Gain/Low Noise

    Hi Guys and Gals I read/ and see where alot of people are using the threshold knob turned close to maximum to get added depth, as with all adjustments, there is a time and place for such adjustments. On the older ED-120 Tesoros like the original Bandido, after making the initial ground balance...

    Compadre, recommended for a newbie?

    Hi fellow Tesoro users I have mentored several of my co-worker friends on choices and techniques with metal detectors. One friend bought a Bandido (original) on my recommendation, and I have been able to 'coach' him since we hunt together. I have been able to teach him to tune his Bandido, and...

    Eary Feminist, Betty Boop

    Hi fellow White's users I went to an old country school with my detecting buddy that was built in 1902. We were cruising for old coins, but I ended with the chick. Her name is Betty Boop, and she was a 1930 celluloid movie cartoon character. She was the first female cartoon character to hit the...

    Build IT..........And They Will Come.....................

    I think Chucky and padiggin ought to build their own metal detecting forum, just like in the movie titled, "Field or Dreams" Since Chucky has been kicked off this forum at least a half dozen times, they can have their own forum to their selfs and talk about nonsensical things like solar powered...

    New guy on the forum, just bought my second Fisher.....

    Howdy Y'all I just bought a second hand CZ5, what a detector! First time out with it and found 1957 silver rosie, must be a good omen. Hopefully when I find some better stuff with it I can post some pictures. My first Fisher was a 1266, nice detector and wish I still had it. HH...........Hombre
