for safe keeping since the number of remaining new machines(with the lifetime warranty) are dwindling fast. I've had 2 CZ-70's (I still have one and one died in a freak leaking refrigerator water filter incident in my basement
-the carcass in still in a box in my basement. I've owned and used a Coin$trike(sold it to my buddy who did great with it as a former DFX user), DFX(sold it), CZ-3D(still have it), ExplorerII and X-Terra 50(still have them). After using all of these machines, I personally still prefer to use the CZ-70 when first hunting a site since I can cover it much quicker than with the other machines and I pretty much know what I'm digging with it when combining the tones, depth, icons with the bounces along with the easy recovery with the 8 inch concentric coil. I still prefer the icons versus the bouncing numbers since I never feel that I know what I'm digging with any of these types of machines. My first machine was the CZ-70. I've tried these other machines since I know there are masking and iron issues with CZ's but...to each is own. With my limited hunting time, it's so nice to hunt with a machine that's straightforward and a pleasure to swing...the proof is in the pics...(all CZ-70 finds with many more)...HH
