One person that might play around with it for a while but for the most part we are using GPX 4000.s HH...Geo

Hi,

I have run the F75 a bit here in town. A bit noisy for my liking for in town use. But I'm headed up to my mine Saturday for a day trip just to check things out. I'll take the F75 along and see how it handles the really bad hot rocks. Back at you next week.

The next gold rush will be every prospector wanting an F75. It can do what the 2000 to 4000 dollar detectors can do. Never been to Alaska but the area I live in has extreme iron minerals and hot rocks and the F75 can get some pretty small grain gold at excellent depth. Hope someone tries it.

Hi,

I was on a mission but did toss the F75 in the plane and give it a brief spin in the rocks. I was pleased to find all the annoying interference I was getting in town go away. The machine not only ran quiet, but seemed to handle our bad ground very well.

Anyway, it was not much of a test but the F75 did not disappoint. Despite what George Kinsey said below I don't think I'll be setting my GPX-4000 aside but the F75 does look to have potential at Moore Creek and that is saying a lot. Most VLF machines fall on their face when tried there.

I think I'll bring the F75 back up to the mine June 1st and we'll give it a real run. alaskaseeker and some other detecting hotshots will be there so we will see what the group thinks.

Keep us posted. I was amazed at what it did here in the iron belt of central VA. we dub as the real "area 51" It was the first VLF detector to consistently discriminate in this extreme mineralised soil on small conductors. Good luck on your upcoming hunt.
