I'm really considering writing an after market book. It would be one way to learn the F-7X detectors inside out and help others at the same time. To me its really amazing how bad the documentation is, that comes with the detectors.

And handled to your satisfaction..It reads that way on the feedback forum..and Mr. Bill really pitched in and helped things along it seems..
If your machines are older, and been stripped by you for making one good machine...why not sell them as is, while they are operating properly, and buy a new CZ21..I think you said all were fixed for around $500.00 on one, and less on the other..Are you still having problems?? Sometimes you just have to decide enough spent on a older product.Again please understand, not trying to argue just thought all was well...

Elton,

I understand your not trying to argue, My machines are older and I had 2 for a reason, I use oone for a backup and if a friend wants to go with me. I was trying to make one out of 2 so I could still have one while I sent the other in. I FAILED miserably. If I had known that the outside headphone coating being cut would still not let water in the unit I wouldn't have tried it. The origional problem on the one that died was MY FAULT. I didn't tighten the battery compartment door and water got in the unit. Neither one worked after I took them apart. I fix computers for a living, going on 17 years. I fix laptops and palms. I thought an electronic detector would be no problem. Boy was I WRONG!!

However it failed. And that is where the first problems arose. While one was still being repaired another came up for sale for 350.00. I couildn't pass it up. It has a 8" coil and I really want my wife to try detecting. That is why the third. She is small and I didn't want her to try to push a 10" coil around in the water!

Yes, most all my problems have been addressed. Some of my posts were deleted and two issues still remain.

I think Mike Scott is trying to do a very difficult job that isn't even his to deal with and I give him lots of credit and respect.

What got me the angriest is when I didn't have the money to repair the second one and I asked them to ship it back, I got one back that wasn't mine at all. The electronics were ruined and the machine was completely rusted out on the inside. They would NOT acknowledge that they sent me somone elses machine and the price to repair it went from 377.00 to 539.00.

I hope this helps a bit. Lets give them a chance and see how they treat others since a new price structure has come out and a better warranty after repair. You can't get that kind of warranty ANYWHERE on a repair of ANYTHING that I know of that has to do with electronics.

You would never have had that problem with Garrett customer service, I can almost be 99.99999 per cent sure of that!
