    Need input to help decide which tesoro

    Been reading beep and dig posts for weeks and weeks and watching the "informative" videos on utube. Been a meter/vdi guy since I started detecting yrs ago, except for one 3 month gig with a vacquero. Never got the confidence in it, so I parted with it. My interest in Tesoro is back again (...

    Long Post ( Seeking Old School )

    Greetings to all you owners/users of the classic 1200 series detectors. I've been doing quite a bit of reading in the archives of several "brand" forums that i've been interested. I've mainly focused on the Fisher site because i know Fisher has been around a long, long time, and i know they are...

    I'd Like To Be A Tesoro User. Need Advice.

    Hi all you experienced Tesoro users, I've been looking at several different brand forums for several weeks. I've just about narrowed my decision to a new Tesoro. I coin shoot old sites and am looking for depth!!!, stability,and good iron rejection. From what I've read, i'm undecided on a...

    You ATPRO users got my attention

    Especially when you say the Pro can take the place of the high end machines. Is it that good???????? I've gone thru different brands, medium to the high end, and still want for my MXT,( found more goodies with it than all the rest combined ). I currently have an X-Terra 70 that will soon be gone...

    The Fickled Detectorist

    That's me, fickled. Always looking for a different machine. Looking for that edge, the small advantage over the next guy ( I mean my hunting partners, hehe). Little did I know that they had the lead on me all the time, snickering under their breath,witnessing me going from this detector to that...

    Bobdylan.....did you or not?

    Just curious to know if you decided on going for an MXT. I saw your post on the MXT forum. Seems like most of the people on that forum favored the MXT over the X-Terra 70,( but that would be expected since its the MXT forum). Be interesting to see the responses from the people here on the...

    Anyone here switched from a xlt or dfx to the mxt?

    I've been back and forth with numerous detectors,(dfx,xlt, coinstrike,quantro,x-terra 50,etc.......). The mxt has found more stuff than any of the mentioned put together. I'm two gray hairs from swapping my 4 mo. old xlt for a new mxt. This will make the fourth mxt if I do it. At this point...

    ANY FORMER MXT OR DFX USERS HERE?

    Although I like the ID system of either of these machines, I'm leaning towards a Cortez or Vaquero, due to the weight of the whites. I'd like to know if the Cortez can match the depth of the whites, and which Tesoro of the two gets better depth,(or are they equal)? Looking for the deep old coins...

    Bargain Land Star

    Hello Bounty Hunter Users, I picked up a radio shack brand detector that is exactly like the land star from a pawn shop for $40.00 !!!!! It wasn't picking up any coins at any depth beyond 1". The worker and I both agreed that the detector was in need of repair, but I was willing to buy at my own...

    Help me make up my mind

    I've narrowed my choices to a few detectors that i think i will be satisfied with, but would appreciate all of your comments regarding the following machines: X-Terra 70, sovereign GT, 6000xl Pro, and the XLT. I currently have a Coinstrike (second one), and a Land Star i just picked up for...

    INFO Please, Tesoro Fans

    Hi all, Always been curious about Tesoro detectors, yet have not ever used one. I'm not looking for a brand bashing party, just some honest opinions comparing the Cortez against the MXT and the Coinstrike. I sold my MXT recently and now have the coinstrike. It's an ok machine but I can't rid...

    Grey Ghost NDT or Detector Pro Gold ?

    Sorry. I've seen headphone reviews in the past, but actually want updated opinions. I'm leaning towards the NDT's. Been using the stock Whites that came with the MXT these past three years. Ready to upgrade, but want all the valued opinions that I can get before forking out over $100.00 dollars...

    Threshhold change?

    I use my MXT in relic mode with disc. set between 2 to 3 for 90% of my hunting. I've noticed that with the trigger switch in the middle position the threshhold sounds smooth, but if I decide to flip the trigger into lock position the threshhold gets the usual pulsing/chattering sound. Has anyone...

    ID 45 on X-50

    My brother recently purchased an X-50. I use an MXT. Today we headed to the shores of Lake Michigan in northern In. He ground balanced at 6, and punched the sensitivity to 16, and searched in all metal mode. He has noticed that the X-50 shoots alot of 45's on the meter. I've read that this is...
