    Thinking about a Simplex plus

    I'm thinking about buying a Simplex plus but with all the detectors I have is it really worth it. I really want to know are they reliable will the company stand behind them. If the warranty is not that great I'll pass but I need to know some real world experiences with it.

    GTI coil change and why must Garrett tune it to the machine?

    I own a GTI 1500 and learned that the old white coils have a tendency to crack and then moisture gets inside and ruins it. Want to buy a used black epoxy coil and thought I could swamp them out but Garrett says no. They have to tune the coil to the machine at a cost of $40. Seems like you could...

    GTI 1500

    I have an opportunity to buy a used GTI 1500 with the old style white imaging coil for $200. I called Garrett and they told me that coil can separate and get moisture in there and they told me how to check it out but what are y’all’s experience with the old coil? Is this still a great deal? I...

    Passing of a treasure hunter

    This morning a great friend and treasure hunter Thomas Brown passed away. He was on this site as the "Deleon Kid" and he was a good man. He taught me a lot about this hobby and we went to Biloxi, Destin, and the battlefields of Louisiana and many small parks. I met him in a Treasure Hunting club...

    Bandido 2 Umax tone vsVaquero low tone

    Can anyone tell me the difference in tone between the Bandido 2 Umax tone and the Vaquero low tone? Is it a higher tone on the Umax? Is the Vaquero low tone easier to hear if you're hearing isn't the greatest?

    Garrett 6.5x9 coil for AT-Pro better for parks???

    Just ordered a 6.5x9 coil for AT-Pro. I was told that this coil is better for hunting than the DD that came with my detector. I usually hunt parks and old homes and a friend told me that the concentric coil is better for what I do and will gain some depth. Any experiences?

    Troy Shadow X2

    I am learning my Troy X2 and it is very different than my other detectors. Always wanted to know if I could trade it for a Vaquero if I chose to go with another machine? I loved my Vaquero.

    FIRST OUTING WITH TROY SHADOW X2

    When I bought my Troy Shadow X2 it seemed it hadn't been used in a long time so I sent it in to Tesoro to get adjusted and tuned up. Got it back today and went to a friends yard to try it out. I really didn't think the coin check button would work that well but it was fantastic. Found a dime...

    Question: Troy Shadow X2 or Tesoro Vaquero Black?

    I know both of them go deep but which is better for target separation and tones to give an idea of the target? Ok, which do you believe is better on depth and why?
