Detector companies bug me. I can spec out a perfect detector I know I would buy so I know others would buy, and I know the technology exists. My perfect VLF gold machine would be similar to the White's DFX. Dual frequency with the ability to run both at once or either only. Usually that means a harmonic like 15 kHz and 60 kHz but I am going to get greedy and ask for 15 kHz and 90 kHz. Run both together or either one separately. The unit should also have a DFX like ability to notch out not only any target types but also multiple ground types. I want to be able to notch out the ground and also notch out a certain hot rock. In other words, more than one ground balance setting.

Who is going to do it first so I can buy it? And sell a bunch also. Sorry Steve, we don't ask our users what they want. We just make stuff and tell people they want it. Why listen to people who have bought by themselves more detectors than a small town and who will continue to buy them until they die?

The most impressive dealer meeting I ever attended was a Honda Power Equipment meeting. It was full of engineers asking "what do you want? What do your customers want?" Why is it so few companies get that? I know what I want, I know what my customers want, and nobody will make it for me. What is up with that? Do not tell me it will cost too much for people to buy. I have over $10,000 invested in detecting gear. I will pay a premium for a premium niche detector and so will others.

Hello, over here, I am your customer, I want to give you my money. Hello! Hello!! Anybody home? Hello!

Small gold. Gold Bug 2 at 71 kHz current unit to beat. Compass went with 100 kHz but was to close to out of business. 60 would probably do the trick if done right. Using a base of 15 kHz makes 60 and 90 probable options.
 
You hit the nail right on the head Steve,that would be a dream machine ,I think these company's have whats called tunnel vision still producing the same old same old,and yes you are right they have the technology but are not game to tool up and step outside their comfort zone and just keep drip feeding us with small improvements and think we are happy but a lot of us aint......:ausflag:
 
Heck! I'd take a Gold Bug 2 with two to three notch's. I like the dual freq idea too... but really, take a great machine like the GB2, add a notch (filter?) capability that doesn't effect any of the other settings.... can't be that hard? Add another oscillator or work off of a harmonic for the second freq... I'll buy one!
