    Eric Foster or others familiar with PI technology

    Eric, Reviewed some of your earlier posts concerning the machine you are working on and am wondering when the machine will be released. I am a relic hunter and have literally tried every machine on the American market and have had moderate success. But for every site that I go to I am...

    Garys Field Test

    Most of you know that I research my detectors as well as the sites that I hunt and truly appreciate honesty, integrity, and good collaboration on any machine that I use. In the past few years, some of the sites that I hunt in the East Coast are similar to that of sites as frequented by our...

    The way to go (1+ audio)

    Went back to my favorite hunting ground of mineralized soil, iron in abundance and hot rocks everywhere to test out the machine further. With iron nails at 1" and deeper with nails that had disintegrated, the machine did fantastic. I was able to find a haversack rivet at about six inches...

    1+ discriminate does the trick and good!

    Carrying on with my experiments and hopefully will get out to dig soon...checked all of the settings on the machine and the best discrimination settings for digging in iron are....(drum roll please...) Use the 1+ setting with sens at whatever level you can adjust it too, the discrimination...

    Caution with Disc

    Appreciate your comments to my earlier posts and I decided to do some field testing today, actually in doors with some of my square iron nail collection and some "cuff" buttons the size of a half dime, some with gold, others without. The settings were sens 60, disc variable at from 10 to 30...

    Settings...for digging in iron

    Hello everyone, been keeping track of the great finds and have now been a proud owner of a T2 for a few weeks. So far I only have about 4 hours on the machine and am a little bit concerned. At one site I hunted the machine did very well in pulling targets from an old house site. Average depth...

    Tesoro Vaquero and Cibola

    Just wanted to thank the Tesoro company for producing such great relic machines the V and C. They are truly the best machines I have EVER used for relic hunting. I commented to someone earlier in the threads about how these machines can work iron like no other machine and pull up finds that...

    Depth is relative

    In each area of the US and world, soil conditions are different. Some people have tremendous amount of depth with the Explorer in area's with less mineralization. If you were to go to certain areas of North Georgia, and along the Valleys of the North East, your depth would be greatly reduced...

    Cody

    Cody, I hope all is well with both you and your Mom. If there was anyone on this forum that seemed to give sound advice on the Explorer with both practical and technical knowledge it was you. You would be amazed at the amount of information I know I have gathered from your posts and from some...

    Field Test/ Eye Opener!!!

    Here is the test, an easy one at that; Take a square nail and hold it next to a nickel in one hand and turn your machine on and see if you can detect the nickel. More than likely the machine will pause and the tone will go down and null on the objects. If you have a TID machine the cursor will...

    Sounds Revised.....

    I have seen so many people knocking down the Tesoro's and am actually scratching my head wondering what those people are doing wrong. Literally if you look at all of the selections we have as diggers on machines, sure you have the TID machines, the IMAGING machines, and etc....but the number...

    Tones for V and C

    One thing to keep in mind when using any machine but more so for the Tesoro V and C are to keep pay attention to your soil conditions. Point in case, in some areas it would be best if you used as little discrimination as possible. In fact, if the soil is HIGHLY mineralized, any signal whether...

    X-Terra results

    I would like to thank the individuals who have graciously responded to some of the questions I know I have had concerning the X-terra family. In fact the information you are all providing is important for us who have yet to own the machine, to possibly purchase one based upon your results...

    Pinpointing with the X-terra

    Most of the individuals who purchased an Xterra were probably Explorer or Explorer II users- my question is the pinpointing function better and more "precise" then that of the Explorer, or is it the same signal "shrinking" feature which the Explorer uses? So to sum it up, is the Xterra...

    Research is the key- Cibola/Vaquero

    Research is something that is critical when one purchases a machine, or in fact locates area's for coins or relics. As I have said much about the Cibola, Vaquero- there is nothing in the world like having information substantiated by other individuals in similar, harsh ground settings. So...

    Iron

    My question is to all X-Terra users as well is how well does it do in iron? Can you do the square nail/ coin test and read the coin in discrimination? If so, this machine sounds very interesting... For that matter can any of the predecessors of the new 70 handle this test be able to detect...

    A lucky few!!!

    I have been reviewing the forums and happened to notice someone trashing the Tejon and Tesoro's, with some individuals saying that they dug too much iron and needless to say, had to post a long experiment for those individuals using other machines to try. And that experiment was the same one...

    Relic programs?

    I have been hunting another camp that has been pounded for the past forty years. Many wonderful buttons and relics have come out of this camp. As you can imagine, the iron is everywhere and "thick". I have the Explorer I, and would like to find the deeper signals in this camp. Here are my...

    New Vaquero Lesson

    Hello Everyone, I realized something out in the field recently with the Vaquero and that is if you are hunting for relics, you might want to keep your discrimination in between all metal and iron nails. You will dig some nails, but you will ALSO dig some buttons. If anyone else has any...
