Does anyone know why

[2 Much Trash]

Does anyone know why there is not much activity, videos, and or, information out there on the F70. There's tons of stuff on the F75's, mxt's, AT pro, especially videos, etc., etc., but not the F70 Even Bill Ladd hasn't done much at all on this machine. What little I've found is pretty positive. I'd like to get this unit but there's not much info out there to go on . Does anyone know why?

I think it's only because the F70 falls under the F75 in the line up. Not that big a difference in price when both were first released. Also the F5 followed..so many went that way for price point. Those that looked at the F70 ended up getting the full blown edition F75..

I have been told that the F70 is as deep, and some claim deeper than the F75 in some situations.

2 Much Trash: I noticed that last year, not much on the F70 so I started posting F70 posts. In Dec. I picked up another detector and have been trying it. While on the other manufacturers forum I noticed a number of the F70 gang also trying this new detector. Maybe the long winter we get a little restless and start thinking of new things? Like buying a new detector? HH....Z

Yep, a real sleeper. Sort of like a basic vehicle without any bells and whistles, but one that somebody put some real thought into the power train and balance. One good idea for a video would be for somebody to show how this thing can be used as a "quick broom" I mean like really going fast with it in the right situations. You can walk full speed on the beach, hear a little "pip" and pull a dime or Q 6"+ deep. I read posts about guys seeing someone walking really fast and swinging wide and high, but by dang, you can do it successfully with this one. Just for research, you can go slow back over the ground you covered and see if you missed anything. You didn't, I'm thinking of making a shaft extension so I can cover a 10' swath instead of an 8'

2 Much Trash: Another thing is that you really don't know what a gem of a detector the F70 is until you try using another and come back to the F70 sometime later. Even the people who use the F70 take it for granted. I have been using the F70 for like 2 weeks and the batteries are still at full. Many hunts I have switched coils or headphones so easily. At times I only want to hear 3 tones, other times I want 2 tones or 4 tones. Sometimes I only want surface coins other times I want deeper coins. I know that many detectors can do this but it is so simple to do it with the F70. No menus within menus or instructions to get from here to there. Batteries are easy to replace. Headphones are in the right place for any person, right hand or left hand and headphone cord isn't getting in the way of your swing. These are just the things I am noticing now that I am using the F70 again that I took for granted. Thanks for your post and HH.....Z
