    Need an upper shaft for a CZ70a Pro

    I'm trying to help out a friend who has a CZ70a Pro. Many years ago the handle broke off and he apparently tossed out the upper shaft. Anybody got one? I've attached a picture I found that shows the entire unit. The shaft/handle I need is at the bottom of the frame. Thanks. Bill (S.CA)

    After spending last weekend learning the X-Terra with the stock coil I decided to hook up the high frequency 18.75 kHz coil and give the machine another run at Santa Monica Beach. Since the X-Terra is a very sensitive detector I was very curious to see how it would do in finding low...

    Guvner: A General Forum Suggestion
