Hey guys. I've narrowed down my next 'tector purchase to the Teknetics Patriot. (F70 with a new paint job)
I've never swung a Fisher or a Teknetics (40+ year Whites guy) but I've watched HUNDREDS of Youtube
vids over the last 4 or 5 months on EVERY decent machine out there comparing this to that.
My concern is... Most of the in ground depth test vids I've seen on the F75 & T2 using deeply buried dimes etc...
(9 or more inches) instead of a faint but clean tone, they more often than not sound off with an iron grunt. Guys,
I try not to dig "deep iron!" I'm talking here about the F75 & the T2 because the F70/Patriot are not "sexy" enough
for the main "testers" to... Test! (Hunter GT has a great Patriot review. No in ground depth tests)
SO... Do I have deep silvers sounding like deep nails in my future? Is this simply a trait of the F series? (& Patriot)
Am I missing something? Any help/advice would be appreciated!
