Coils on Land Ranger Pro

I swapped the screw in coil connector from a Tek Alpha with the push-in connector off the new BH Land Ranger Pro, so now i can use all my greek series coils on my new Land Ranger Pro. Amazing machine, it could easily sell for $800. It will do everything the Omega can, only quieter. I am yet to find an EMI issue ! I bet First Texas releases a Tek model similar to this soon. Once again this is the best value and hottest mid-frequency detector available ! And the TID numbers are Tek equivalent.
 
:confused: Is this post for real?
 
ok, is Dave still a tech at Kellyco ? go ask him how easy this is, FT should have just used the screw on connector, unless they plan to release another similar unit under the Tek line and get another $200 out of it.
 
Ya Dave is still here, I do not see this switch difficult. Was there any saudering involved? That would be the only thing I would think people do not want to mess with or to mess up the warranty for others.
 
I hear what your sayin', but I don't think most folks will want to jeopardize their 5 year warranty ... so an adapter is a viable solution.

Your comments about the machine are encouraging. What about the tones, variable break point, notch wide, etc?

why wouldn't it be real you read it didn't you? It's easy, and i left out that it is 7.2kHz
No disrespect intended. It just seemed a lot to absorb at once lol.
The voiding of the warranty made me really question it, but to each their own. If you own it and it works... :detecting:
 
I can see something like that working. That is a cool mod.
 
What are the tones? where is the vbreak? custom notch and disc patterns, right? Really wish FTP would put manuals up for their new products. F19 and new bounty hunters out in the wild and not manuals, user videos, and minimal talk. :( I'm bored and it's Friday. Is the land ranger pro the euro tek and g2 featured omega 7.8khz platform some of us have really been looking for? Airtest on dime and quarter? guess it will be close to the omega.
 
I am with you. Would really like to read a good field test review. If they are already being used by people, what's the hold up?
 
The manuals are now up :)
