    NEL Sharpshooter 9,5"x5,5" for Tesoro Tejon. Good? Bad? How does it compare to the Tesoro 5.75" Widescan coil? Thanks Mark

    Tejon Toggle Problem Revisited, Or Solved So Far.

    Sometime back I had started a thread about the Toggle sticking in its forward position. In that thread I and others posted some ideas that seemed to help but what I found they only worked for awhile. Well, I had figured that I would just use it and in the late fall I would send it off to the...

    First Hunt With My Tejon

    Well, I have this small place I've been coin picking for awhile now and I knew it had a lot of un-wanted trash in it. The place is a small T-Ball field that has a couple sets of small bleachers, a little concession stand and a small area where adults set out camp chairs. Now, when I first hunted...

    Trouble With The Tejon Toggle

    Okay, my Tejon has a sticky toggle switch (sometimes it don't spring back to center) Now, I know that I could send it to Tesoro and they would fix it no problem and probably a small fee. But, before I dive into that I thought I would look at the other options. I'm thinking a touch of TV/control...

    My First Yard Testing With The Tejon

    Well, it didn't go so well and I'm not sure why. When I got the Vaquero I spent several hours in my front yard seeing how well it would move around small rusty iron, I know my yard has an abundance of that. I was amazed at how it would sniffed around the iron and hit on stuff around it...

    Detecting My Yard With My New To Me Vaquero

    Well, I've read about the "V" liking rusty nails. So I had a plan, which was to do some detecting in my own yard (keep in mind that every detector I've ever had over 30 years has been used in this yard, but I never ran anything looking for anything below coins) So, now to test a detector I know...

    Things I've already learned about my Vaquero already

    It really LOVES my Pro-Pointer, I don't have to worry about losing it. With the pointer turned off and the Vaquero in disc mode it will still hit solid on the pointer out to like two feet (For Real) Anybody else notice that? Now, I know that that doesn't mean ist running that deep in the...

    I Got My Vaquero The Other Dy, Boy Is It Ever Small

    Just seeing these in pictures I thought them to be somewhat bigger! Now, that's not good or bad, but at first when it came in in that tiny little Tesoro box, I thought this can't be real. Later, when I opened it I thought it less real! A few minutes in my test garden this evening helped out, It...

    I'll Put The Omega Back Into The Teknetics Forum LoL

    The best that my records are, I believe this to be my oldest find to date, oldest silver for sure. I found this Quarter in our local city park, the coin predates the park a few years (park goes back to the 20's) The park has been a battle ground for metal detecting sense the late 70's the park...

    The Problem With To Much Volume, Why Not A Inline Volume Control?

    Okay, I don't own a Tesoro, although some time in the future I would like to get a "V" until then I do drop buy here and read some post.
