    Help Me To Decide

    I know this question has been asked a million times. But right now I'm trying to decide between an AT Pro and the AT Gold. I know they are both good, deep hunters, each with their own unique set of characteristics. Here is what's hold me up. I am a coin and jewelry hunter only. I don't hunt...

    Something about ground balance and the Omega...

    I used to own the Omega and have thought about replacing it, but I have one big problem with it that maybe someone here can talk to me about. My soil is very mild. I would ground balance the machine and start hunting. The ground balance screen would fluxuate and ulitmately go to three bars at...

    Forgive me if this has been asked before, but had anyone noticed any lost sensitivty on the Compadre with 8" coil versus the 5.75" coil?

    Tiny Targets

    For those with some experience in this area, which detector do you think has greater sensitivity to tiny non-ferrous targets. The Lobo or the Tejon? Or are they pretty equal?

    Happy, Happy, Happy!!

    The one detector I have sold that I later deeply regretted selling was the Golden uMax. When I realized my mistake, it was too late to get a new one. Tesoro had discontinued. After that, the price of used Golden's skyrocketed. Well, I guess the anticipation of the new Cazador has broguht the...

    DeLeon TID

    Hello to all you DeLeon users. I am curious about this DeLeon's TID. I know the more confident it is of the target, the higher the bar you see. So are you more likely to dig based on what the bar is telling you, or what the tone is telling you? I would have to imagine a solid bar is a big...

    Sand Shark and Sensitivity

    The purpose of the post (and why I am not posting this in beach hunting forum) is not to start an angry debate over which PI unit goes deeper or which is more sensitive to small targets. I am only posting this to help those thinking about buying a Sand Shark and those who want some comparison...

    Note To Self #1

    1. The next time you take the Compadre to the beach 2. To do jewelry hunting in the dry sand 3. And you decide to set your discrimination just below IRON to pick up thin gold chains 4. Please remember to bring a fine sand sifter 5. As most of your targets are going to be so small 6. They are...

    An Ignorant Question On Pulse Detectors

    I have been researching this issue and cannot find a source to give a straight answer, so far as I can tell. Maybe I am not asking the right question. I know that pulse detectors that operate at a higher frequency are more sensitive to low conductors, and vice versa. So is it correct to say...

    10" Concentric Coil??

    I have been watching some UTube videos of a detectorist in Alaska using his newer Gold Bug to hunt tot lots and parks. The strange part is, he has a 10" concentric elliptical coil on it and he does just fine. But I thought that coil was not made to work on the Gold Bug series. Is there...

    F70/F75 on Iron

    I know the older CZ series often gives a false high tone to some iron. Does that carry over to the F70/F75 series as well?

    Might Seem Obvious...

    But has anyone noticied a sensitivity advantage in favor of the AT Gold over the AT Pro for smaller jewelry?

    Cibola / Compadre Comparison

    I don't have a Compadre right now to make this comparison. If a Cibola and a Compadre, both mounted with 5.75" concentric coils, were to pass over certain gold targets, including gold chains, does anyone know/think there would be targets the Compadre could hit that the Cibola could not? I know...

    Whites GMZ

    I have heard, and seen a YouTube video, of people using the GMZ on the beach with success. Should I assume that is limited to dry sand only due to its high frequency? Has anyone tried using it?

    Has Anyone Noticed On The Compadre And Cibola...

    If the Compadre and the Cibola are both outfitted with a 5.75" concentric coil, is their performance fairly equal in terms of sensitivity to small targets?

    Omega 8000

    Even after ground balancing on clean ground, I would not that my Omega would constantly dip into the three bar range on the ground error screen. And it would stay they there. I got frustrated trying to constantly re-ground balance. Has any noticed if EMI or running the senstivity higher...

    Cortez / DeLeon

    Assuming these two have the same settings in the discrimination mode, are there any real depth differences between them? Just curious.

    Compadre vs. Lobo

    When jewelry hunting, has anyone found an advantage using the Lobo over the Compadre? And by jewelry I include chains and earrings, not just rings. Thanks for responding. I am really curious.

    Goodbye to the Golden?

    It is being reported on another forum that the Golden uMax is not coming back and that Tesoro is instead focusing on a couple of new machines. The poster said he heard this directly from Tesoro this week. Has anyone else heard this directly from Tesoro?
