    Just 1 more, and I'll be happy, ??

    Hi everyone, I am wanting to add 1 more to the collection, am between the T2, and a Minelab X-Terra 705. ---- Does anyone here have experience with both? Looking for "seat of the pants" feelings. Thanks in advance, TTF

    1 more detector

    I'm wanting to but 1 more detector, --- to keep it short, I'm down to either a Teknetics T2, or the Minelab 705 --- does anyone here have experience with both detectors? ------- would appreciate some "seat of the pants" feelings on comparisons between these 2 units. Thanks in advance, TTF

    Broken Coil - F5

    I ordered a new in box Fisher F5, it arrived with one of the ear flanges broken on the coil. No damage to outer shipping carton, or the "Fisher" box. All was intact and seemingly well packed. Anyone else have this problem?, ( am waiting for a new coil, I assume I will get one)

    505 VS 705

    From what I can tell, the only difference between the 505 and the 705, is that the 705 has the "prospecting mode", and the "pinpoint sizing" --- I traded away my 705, but am thinking I need to give it another try. --- I have no need for the prospecting mode, so should I buy the 505 and save...

    F4 same as Bounty Hunter 3300 ?

    Just a quick question please. -Is the Fisher F4 and The Bounty Hunter Discovery 3300 the same machine? --- I know they are all manufactured by the same parent company, and sure look identical to me. Has anyone owned both, or actually compared them side by side? Thanks in advance, TTF

Garrett Ace 250, Tesoro Silver uMax, Tesoro Cortes, Minelab Xterra 705, ( didnt use it at all, to confusing for me), and the Fisher F2. So far, without a doubt, The F2 is smokin!, simple to use, a...

    Would you search a airliner crash site? (ethics question)

    The is a crash site very near me, 2 planes colided with a loss of life of about 85 persons. --- The crash occured 40 years ago. I know the exact spot where the plane impacted to ground. THe descent angle was about 45 degrees, so the wreckage and bodies were only spread over about a 5 acre area...

    Help with coin depth please.

    Hi everyone, just recently got back into the hoppy of detecting. --- Have 4 new detectors, from beginners models to top of line. Here's my question, ---- It seems that all of the coins that I have found, maybe 200 or so, are all modern coins, --- most are clad pennies, some copper, a couple of...

    Trade Minelab X-terra705 for GTI 1500 ??

    Hi everyone, I just bought a new Minelab X-Terra 705 on e-bay this week. Assembled it, but don't like it. Seems a bit more complex than what I care for. I paid $698 for it. Anyone have a 1500 ( new or like new), or a 2500 slightly used that they want to trade? -------- My E-bay ID is...

    Got my X-705 today, boy am I confused!!!

    Hi everyone, I recently got back into the hobby, have kind of gone crazy buying detectors. So far, a Ace 250, Fisher F2, Tesoro Silver uMAX, Tesoro Cortes, and now the 705. Have had no problems with the others, but the X-terra seems a bit overwhelming. Am planning to use the others until I...
