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 that is posted in the instruction manual for both the Cibola and the Vaquero- you all know how they picture the man, holding both an iron nail as well as a coin, and how they show as well as instruct the user to swing the iron nail and coin across the coil with the disc set to iron, and the iron nail is rejected and the nickel sounds off with that "sweet" nice signal.
I tried this same experiment with a higher priced, machine and no matter what settings I tried with this machine and in fact here is a secret...(I tried this with other machines as well, costing hundreds of dollars more!!!!) ended up with the same results! The Tesoro machines were the only machines that could detect the coin right next to the iron nail. Think of that potential in all of those worked out sites, where others couldn't detect the area due to iron masking.
So if you want to humor yourself, just review the other postings for each of the newer detectors and just think of how lucky you are if you own a Tesoro!
