    ISO Tesoro Eldorado umax

    Mostly for nostalgia. This was my first machine and although I've had many others over the past 15 years, I really wish I kept it. I'm looking for one in good shape and a seller willing to ship to Canada. Thanks.

    Why is this forum so toxic lately?

    It's almost hard to be here. The pinned post at top says we should be respectful and NOT insulting. There are some who go out of their way to be insulting, rude, antagonistic and inflammatory. Perhaps this forum needs more mods or something? I just really struggle with certain people who feel...

    Hey folks

    Simple question. It seems to be hard to get some honesty about depth haha. I know some people are adamant that their compadre might hit a quarter at 12 inches but I struggle with that. :-). Is it safe to assume the Tejon is the current king of depth for a silver coin laying flat in a park all by...

    High and low trash

    Can people give some examples of why they use what they use and where they use it regarding target separation? I am getting a good understanding of the differences between high and low trash separation but am wondering where I'd use low trash, other than the obvious. With the chance of a larger...

    Pinpointing and other stuff

    I know my questions seem goofy at times but I seriously don't "get" the manual. The language and presenting order/headings and flow of the writing is confusing. So my confusion tonight is about target trace / target trace pinpoint / pinpointing in with normal or sizing / and how they all...

    With the last update was there any headphone stuff??

    I'm looking at getting some different headphones (land ones) and see there were ones developed specific to the 3030 last year (like the sun ray). Something about the speaker making sound while regular old headphones were plugged in. Has this changed or do I need specific special headphones...

    Randy/Digger post on target trace / pinpoint

    I've read this and watched videos and am still a little confused. Am I correct in thinking the Target Trace works only if you do not run an open screen? It will see two objects only if one is discriminated out? With the open screen it will always only id the stronger target? With disc it shows...

    Owners manual and "beach"

    When I read "beach" in the manual do I assume saltwater? It says not to use auto sensitivity , GB etc on the beach. I'm hunting freshwater so is it ok to use auto sensitivity? Thanks.

    Dumb question yet again

    Do I need waterproof headphones to water hunt? Here's the story. Been waiting way too long for my headphones to arrive. I'm leaving today though for a place I can water hunt. Although I admit I'm scared of putting this machine in water from all the leaking comments I will. But with no phones can...

    Who's the boss of the forum

    I've tried the contact us link and it says the message went through but then it bounces back to me immediately as a bad email. I need to ask someone about changing my forum name to something more dramatic :-). Thanks much.

    I think I'm over thinking

    I'm close to firming up my decision on getting one of these machines but then I get so intimidated .im trying to create a simple description of this machine to ease my fears. Is it safe to say it is really just a deep and accurate machine that has insane notch discrimination features where you...

    Pinpointing question - newbie sounding

    Where does the coil pinpoint on this machine? I'm going to make the switch from tesoro where it pinpoints nice and centre of the coil. I've watched what seems like hours of video and am trying to understand why it appears some struggle with this. The following video is great right up to the end...

    Big head headphones

    Killer B , Jolly Rogers, grey ghost or ? I know some don't use phones but for bigger heads what do you folks use? I had a pair of the original gray ghosts I think a few years ago. If I remember they felt like my head was being squished in a vice. A big head , weather proof headphone would be...

    Buying a Tesoro Outlaw package?

    Does it come with lower poles and coil covers? Thanks.

    Couple odd questions

    First one. Was the Eldorado a 5 pin machine? I'm tracking an old one down and want to ensure a new machine and it will be able to swap coils. I'm thinking Outlaw and/ or the Golden Which leads to my second question. When setting the notch on the golden I read to use a nickel. Now what does...

    If you had only one machine for copper?

    I'm heading back home the next few summers to Ontario where I know some good areas for native copper hunting. I've been researching copper and don't see much about what the ideal machine frequency etc would be. I assume all metal and deep would be best but do I go with a vlf or pi. Lower...
