    Seems like Buying a CTX3030 is like a crap-shoot

    Mine sits on the wall waiting for all the great up-dates that were coming with it. Sure it's a great machine but I have my go to machine. I have less than an hour on this unit but I saw its potential unmasking coins in trace pattern. (smearing of 2 targets) Found a couple coins w/iron in the...

    Does Tesoro have something up their sleeve?

    Came across an e-bay item that made mention of some real heavy hitters going to BAT for Tesoro. Don't know how true it is but if that's the case maybe in the next year we will hear something new in the works from them. How great would that be! The names mentioned were some Truly great...

    Picked up this unit and back light is out. Common problem after time I guess. Machine works !00% except back light. Would like to inspect meter housing but just don't want to crack anything in the process. Is this a snap fitting or are they sealed some how? I.d bet the electro- strip is burnt...

    Would like to know how many Racers sold in U.S.

    I am dying to try out a Racer but I have wayyyy too many machines that just doesn't warrant me buying one. I personally don't know anyone that owns a Racer close by to see one in action and with the reports of broken coil ears and other issues that had to affect sales. Most say run with the OOR...

    Loving my new used SPECTRUM XLT!!!

    Took this machine to a Chicago beach the other day and if there were targets in the sand this machine had great responses. Couldn't water hunt though as the waves were powerful that day and swimmers had to stay close to shore. Best find was a 53' wheatie . Plenty of clad was found along with...
