[size=large]put this dime[/size]
[attachment 36681 dime.jpg]
[size=large]under this Abrams Tank.[/size]
[attachment 36682 tank.jpg]
[size=large]But this Bad Boy saw right down between those depleted uranium tipped shells and nailed that dime. Now I have to admit, that without the hatch open I couldn't tell if it was a silver or clad dime. Oh well, I guess there's always room for improvement, come on DJ make the ultimate Battlefield Detector![/size]

forget those nail and tank tests on top o'the ground. Bury that tank 3' and then put the dime next to and see if either machine will signal on the dime. I bet they will and over a big area too!

oddly enough it begins with letter "T" which is the same letter as "Tejon" starts with. Your multiple posts on multiple forums declaring this as the worlds greatest relic detector is taking on the same airs as the "fanatical" Tejon users.
The nail deal is a cheap parlor trick that Tesoro owners have been using for years to upstage the higher end TID machines i.e.
http://www.findmall.com/read.php?17,330621,330621#msg-330621
I have seen no one do a heads up, well documented test of the T2 against the MXT, M6, and X70. And I'm not talking about a quick stroll through a planted test garden.
As far as sensitivity to small low conductivity targets that other detectors miss; here's a well documented and photographed post I did of the X70 in very difficult ground conditions with a 40% GB differential between the background sand mixture and about a 1/3 ground coverage of hot rocks.
http://www.findmall.com/read.php?55,314843,314843#msg-314843
The earring backs speak for themselves.
And as far as an all around inland and saltwater beach hunter, you can't seriously consider the T2 holding a candle to a CZ. The CZ would slaughter the T2 on a saltwater beach!
You think the T2 is the most advanced current detector, then at the price point it's at why WASN'T it a dual or multi-freq machine? How disappointing. DJ certainly knows how to design one! At the least the X70 in the same price range has a usable saltwater GB mode.
So you, as someone who hasn't even learned how to use the detector declaring it as the "best" detector is just frankly hilarious. That's like me declaring the new Fisher under a sheet is the best detector ever made, just silly.

Hey Buddy,
Because one person didn't agree with your post which I may add is a honest sincere post on your part, Nothing wrong with your post and how many times have WE all posted on a subject we felt was exciting and worth sharing with others.
Don't let one person ruin your day, He just isn't looking outside of the box.

go with it and if your opinion and zeal doesn't line up perfectly with others, so what? This is a forum to share thoughts and opinions, right, wrong, or indifferent..... not just a place to only agree or debate. And oh, by the way, I was the same way when I first got the T2.

Nothing wrong about being excited about your new metal detector. Put that smile back on your face and get your butt out there finding some good things to post on the Forum. Kelley (Texas)

Hey Barnacle Bill.
Nice recovery on the earring backs, Takes a special detector to capture earring studs that size.
All the detectors you mentioned for a possible future documented test will hit those studs, The T-2 will, The MXT & M6 and X70 will nail those earring backs.
I've used all of these detectors out in the field with the exception of the X70 but did use the X50 for a week searching at an old iron laced site. I currently have a T-2 and the MXT which are both excellent relic detectors and like the X70 will recovery the same size earring backs you did with your X70, From my experience the T-2 has an edge over the X50 and most likely even the X-70. The recovery speed on the T-2 is bar none the fastest, Which accounts for the fantastic separation plucking out tiny conductors other machines miss. But that's my opinion and until you try the T-2 then you'll agree.
Plus, I don't recall Lawrenzo mentioning the T-2 was a serious saltwater detector? How did you come to that conclusion? Lawrenoz only said it was a relic detector and a good one at that, How you would compare the T-2 against the CZ for saltwater is like comparing the CZ to the T-2 on relic hunting...........The T-2 will slaughter the CZ.
Have a good day and congrats with the earring studs, stud.

Lawrenzo only posted here after making the same post twice on the T2 forum and receiving no reply from the T2 owners. Perhaps the T2 owners are spending more time on the Fisher forums than the T2 forum. He even complained that someone had deleted his post, so why you all were ignoring him I don't know, but you can take that up him with via PM.
So on to your questions, a little bit out of order if I might indulge your patience:
Lawrenoz only said it was a relic detector and a good one at that, How you would compare the T-2 against the CZ for saltwater is like comparing the CZ to the T-2 on relic hunting...........The T-2 will slaughter the CZ.
The T2 is not just a Relic machine and marketing it as such would really cripple sales.
Page 1 first sentence of the owners manual:
The Teknetics T2 is a new high-performance multi-purpose professional grade metal detector.
Page 1 last sentence of opening paragraph:
Its most popular uses include coinshooting, relic hunting, and gold prospecting.
And in the subject index it calls out:
Detecting Activities
Coinshooting

Sorry Bill, you're putting spin to your original post to Lawrenzo now using the owners manual to avoid responsibly.
Lawrenzo only mentioned the T-2 was a good relic detector, He didn't say "good saltwater detector" or "multi-purpose grade detector" as you're applying, Only a good relic detector. You're assuming he said these comments which is false, He only mentioned the T-2 is a good relic detector. His post had nothing to do with the owners manual, You bring up the manual now to put more spin into your reply.
And he apologizes to you when it should be the other way around, Lawrenzo is one heck of a guy Bill....Too bad we don't have more people like him on this crazy planet.
Try out the T-2 when you get the opportunity, You'll be impressed.
All the best, Paul (Ca)
