Master Hunter CX II

[Fishers Ghost]

Would like to hear some opinions re the old CX II.
Does it disc well, Is GB & detection depth good?
Does the Meter lock onto a target disc reading and hold it until the next different target, Does it TID in the All Metal Mode?

Cheers,

Oh yeah, it's all good. Great depth and discrimination. Ground balance and tracking are very good(manual and automatic)on iron mineralization, however, it won't balance to wet salt water sand beach. The meter reading doesn't hold until the next reading, unless you hit another target immediately. It holds for like two or three seconds, I guess. Oh yeah, it IDs in "All Metal" mode. Great selection of search coils, too(if you can find 'em). I don't have a CX2 anymore, but I had one for several years.
Happy Hunting!

Thanks for that info.
I picked one up on ebay for around 160 dollars but probably won't arrive until after christmas.
I have been through quite a lot of detectors in my day but not the CX II so it will be interesting to compare it to some of my more modern detectors.
If it is anything like a lot of other oldies, it will probably compete quite well. I tend to prefer metered readouts over LCD because they respond to and disply a lot of the more suttle signals that digital cannot display and that can make the difference between finding or not finding a target.
