f75 ltd2 weak all metal?

detectingMO

New member
does the ltd2 not have bp all metal? I think bp disc is deeper. the AM reminds me of the weak AM on an omega vs the super powerful t2se bp am and even g2 all metal.
 
If you have the 75 in boost, it carries over to all metal.
 
right, and is weak compared to before. both versions

ive only had t2se to compare so maybe t2 bp am was alway way deeper?

i think bp disc may be deeper. which is fine for me but wow. major change
 
I found my am is much weaker, even if I use the bp and switch to am. I had the F75 standard and switched to the se, and immediately had it upgraded. But the standard was so much deeper. I'll have to see if I like this as much. Time will tell. I do
love the quiet though. I'll keep you updated. Thanx, dwight
 
yeah, i hunt in disc and love the quiet but the die hard relic hunters and prospectors wont like.
 
Yep. The all metal mode is ruined for me. I really like the disc mode changes with the upgrade but I relic hunted in all metal mode 80% of the time last year with a lot of success. I think its funny how nobody reported the obvious change to the all metal side of the machine. No way I would of upgraded if I knew what I know now. I might look for an older F75 but I still need to give the new disc mode a chance first.
 
just air tested. both versions same.
am seems as if there is hardly any gain after 50sens. bp deos not change. depth is about same as de disc. in bp disc its deeper than am. however, static all metal appears correct and does boost in bp. mine was new 11/14 manfacture and dst is on 9.1 there definitely has been a reduction in overall gain of the machine. glad its quiet and deep in disc but now i sense zero resale and a recall. :(

I agree with this. I have not got mine back yet, I loved the All Metal before I sent it in. I will keep an open mind for the new disc modes though.
 
I just started learning this f75ltd and with the small coil I like it,one reason I haven't upgraded is I didn't want to lose the camo faceplate.I disk at around 50 so the all metal loss wouldn't really affect me,but I feel for you guys.hope they fix it
 
wonder if it is tied to the 2l and 2h pin point bug. it definitely seems as the is very little gain in the am sens adjustment.
 
Great, mine just checked in at FT Friday for upgrade, I hope that is what it is.

Does anybody jave any actual data? I hear a lot of opinions here. How about comparison based on actual testing, SE/LTd vs. new or upgraded Ltd.

Detecting MO as far as i can determine didn't have an earlier F-75, but now says his new F-75 with DST isn't as deep in AM? I'm confused.

Data please.

By the way, this is what I get in air tests with the 11" coil in BP with 99 sensitivity - discrim 0 and the second number in all metal

Quarter - 16" - 20"
Dime - 15" -17"s
Nickle - 17" - 23"

Nothing wrong with my AM mode as far as I can see.
 
Mine is on its way but this is NOT good news to me. I hunted in AM 100% of the time. My dirt is so bad that it requires it. If this is true...bye bye new F75.

don't you have one of the 7/14 manufactured ones? I have a brand new one, same as upgraders, 11/14 manufacture that we all waited for and in BP AM it is about 2" less than in disc. more like 12" on a quarter. Same in any other process AM. Depth is no where near your numbers in either disc or All metal.

You'll have some video proof soon. Bill_S is going to borrow it. Though he's banned here for some reason.
 
Mine is an upgrade, manufactired as an LTD in 7/13.

Is your 12" number an air test in AM where the disc mode gives 14" on the same quarter?

Thanks

was it upgraded before nov though? I'm thinking at least the first shipment and wave of upgrades in nov got hosed like mine. Not sure if current upgrades are using the same boards. It's not just me reporting this.
