Hi Everybody
This is my first post on any forum.
I was going to buy a Compadre. It had the highest user rating of all detectors and seemed like the perfect machine for me.
The dealer I ordered it from was out of stock and Tesoro was behind in production so I had a nice conversation with the dealer about my plans to get a Compadre now and a Vaquero in 2012.
The dealer made me an offer I couldn't refuse, for a barely used Tejon with an extra 5.75" coil.
My question is. Can a Tejon with the 5.75" coil detect the small gold jewelry and coins as good as the Compadre?
Has anyone used both of these machines and knows from experience if the Compadre can out-hunt the Tejon for certain targets? Should I still get the Compadre?
I'm pretty confident the Tejon can do as well for finding coins, I just don't know if it is as good at finding small gold chains and earrings.
I will appreciate any and all opinions.
