    Silver Sabre Umax threshold disc mode question

    I am not sure on the answer to this question. I am selling my Silver Sabre Umax detector and the buyer asked if the threshold works in the disc mode on this detector. From what I can tell in disc mode if the threshold is increased it gives a little louder audio response on a target, allowing...

    A moment of remembrance

    Tonight my wife showed me an obituary of a fellow detectorist in my area who had passed away. He spent many years detecting and collecting coins. I saw him out and about a few times when I was detecting and never went up and introduced myself. I knew from another friend who detects who this...

    Pictures of Eldorado Umax

    My Eldorado Umax arrived 40 minutes before I had to go to work yesterday. Just enough time to break open the package and see what I had purchased. First thing I saw were the headphones. I asked him when I was buying the detector if he knew what brand the headphones were. He said just some...

    Newest Arrival-Eldorado Umax

    I have seen some posts about the Eldorado Umax and some reviews that speak highly of it's performance. My Eldorado is slated to arrive tomorrow. It took me a little while to hunt one of these down. I hardly ever see one in the classifieds on this site or for sale on other sites and when they...

    Winter Hunting

    In my neck of the woods I am starting to feel a chill in the air. It is a sad reminder that winter will soon be here and many outdoor activities will be put on hold. The winters here can be very unforgiving and typically chilling, sometimes to the bone. Last year that did not stop me from...

    Bandido II umax finds 2nd ring

    I have had my Bandido II umax for about a week now and have only been able to hunt with it twice. No gold or silver with it yet. I have found one stainless steel ring and now this large copper ring. This is the first large copper ring I have found in 3 years of detecting. I was searching on a...

    Bandido II Umax has arrived

    Well it took me forever to get my new detector in the mail, but it arrived today. I was very excited when it was UPS at the door. Unfortunately work calls today, but I will probably get a chance to try it out tomorrow. Just grateful to have a job. It is kind of like opening your presents at...

    NIce Little Hunt with the Compadre

    I was able to get out and spend some time detecting this morning. With work and family I have been really busy, but I would not trade time with my family for nothing and right now I am just grateful to have the job I do. I did have quite a fun time detecting. I have gone over the area I chose...

    Bandido II Umax

    I just purchased a Bandido II Umax today. I don't know what the going rate is on these detectors, but I hope I did good on the price. I have read a lot of good about these machines on this forum an other forums. I needed something with manual ground balance on it to cut through some...

    Rusty, Robert and Tesoro are top notch

    I know those who have had experiences with Tesoro's customer service praise them for going above and beyond the mark in customer service and professionalism. Due to Tesoro's quality of detectors some may never have to use their repair department or may never have to call them for anything. I...

    Compadre finds a buffalo nickel, curious about what year, click here

    My Compadre never ceases to amaze me and never disappoints. I think that if we keep posting our finds too many people will realize what a good detector the Compadre is and go out and buy one. Excellent marketing for Tesoro ( I wish them all the best, they deserve it), but heavier competition...

    Silver Sabre Umax sent into Tesoro

    I spoke with Robert yesterday at Tesoro and was pleased with the time he took to talk to me about a problem I am having with the Silver Sabre Umax I purchased recently in excellent condition. I was well pleased with the staff I spoke with there from the person who answered the phone initially...

I recently acquired this silver sabre umax for $80 with Tesoro headphones included and what really suprised me was that it had a coil cover on it as well. The guy said he...

    Compadre finds Silver

    This Weekend my family and I went to Arizona for a week long vacation. We visited a place that we frequented as kids and of course we brought the detectors. My dad had his Cibola with him and I brought my Compadre and Silver Sabre umax I had recently purchased. My brother snatched up my dad's...
