    Options for Fisher F5 concentric coils with the push-in coil connectors?

    First! Its known that the Greek series coils works on the F5 although in my experience with what's being called the Greek series I didn't have good luck with the Gold Bug coils on an Omega, and I've heard others mention limited results when they were used on the F5's.

    aa Battery's Race To 0.8v How Much Interest Is There?

    Here is the deal. The other day I started what I would call a real world aa Alkaline Only battery drain test. The goal was to use a FIXED known load wired into a 1 slot aa battery holder with leads. I used a 10watt 4.7ohm resistor for the load for each. I checked the voltages out of the pack...

    F70 users! My Brother Gave me A Homework Assignment

    WV62 Ask; Is My Tejon Okay?

    Big brother, on both the Tejon's I had and even on the Vaquero I calibrated the disc control knobs so that both disc one and disc two scales matched (this sounds a little like your problem). I removed both discrimination control knobs and got a nickel and I set the disc controls at the point...

    Ground Balance question for ALL F70 users?

    This seemed like a good idea to me, but now I'm having second thoughts about it because I'm not sure if the ground balance setting will carry over from program 2 to program 1. Let me explain! I thought it a good idea to use the program 2 to store a group of settings in the Auto Tune mode to use...

    First Test Run With My F70 :wiggle:

    Well this evening I was able to get out with my F70 for its first trial run. I only had a couple of hours before dark so I picked a local ball field where I had recently found a lot of clad for the size of the area. The F70 really surprised me with its ability to ping nickels, in fact I was...

    Anybody tried sealing the heel caps on the early version F75 coils

    I bought a used one and knew that the early versions of the coil were known to leak water into them, so in the revised addition they added external sealant to the seams. So I got up the nerve to seal this one, it came out really nice. I used the slow set 90 minute epoxy and a wooden match stick...

    Its all Mud's fault! he made me do It.

    Well, "firefitr227" has to wear his part of the blame too! I've sold two detectors and now I'm getting an F70. Its a used one but I had the seller send it to First Texas for a little cosmetic details and a checkup first (he included my contact information), so, I'll be getting it direct from...
