    Compass GoldScanner Pro,

    Here's something I did a while back, Balanced a GoldScanner Pro so most of the weight is underneath the arm-rest. Funny thing is the meter assembly was the toughest part of the mod, Took several attempts coming up with a miniature meter housing but finally put one together that would fit the...

    Diablo II Gold Demon......Recently bought one,

    About two months ago, Found a nice clean Diable II Gold Demon at a yard sale. The price was right so I bought the detector. First day out was a local tot lot, Found a tiny ear-ring stud deep in the wood chips. For an older (1992) gold detector it sure operates well, Smooth threshold even...

    Great news! Whites Intensity meter will target ID,

    Today, Was a bit surprised to see a Whites intensity meter ID when connected to an analog detector designed for target ID. By chance, After swapping circuit boards (5500/D Series 3 and a 6000 Di Series 3) into different housings, Instead of going through the process of switching the analog...

    I've owned a couple of MXT's before and sold them before I never got familiar with the prospecting mode, Now after using a GMT and enjoying the all-metal 'iron grunt' feature was wondering if the MXT in prospecting mode has this same 'iron grunt' feature when pushing the trigger forward...

    Here's why the T-2 does well in iron laced sites,

    The other day, My friend "Eric's" MXT and my T-2 appeared to fare the same from site to site. We hunted four different locations and with comparing signals both the MXT and the T-2 both did extremely well peeking between the cracks of iron and in some cases did well up close to large pieces of...

    A thread I posted on our California forum on the T-2,

    Here's a post I made on another forum end of last month, It appears Scott and I noticed the same with the smaller conductors reading as a higher signal on the T-2 which I shared with a forum here in California.....Several other detectors including the Explorer create the same illusion but due...

    TekenticsT-2, I'm a believer!

    I'm not going to bore you with a long thread about the T-2 so I'll make it short. This is by far the best relic detector I have ever used here in California! Great separation in iron laced sites and get's the depth too, It's plucking out finds from pounded sites our top end detectors missed...
