Lobo ST what a sweet machine

[colt]

I bought a mint condition used Lobo ST sunday and had a chance to play with it over the past two days and what a sweet little detector. I had one 5 years ago and used it a lot, I found my first gold nugget with a LST. I remember the first time I turned it on, the battery test made everybody around me spill their coffee and brought on comments, like what the h... are you doing, I almost dropped the detector. I sold that LST to buy another detector.

I forgot how well the LST worked, it is just an all around good performing metal detector, light weight, user friendly, and it will find real small targets. I have a test area set up in by back yard, with rusty nails laying near coins and another area with rusty nails on top of coins, I put a 5.75 DD coil on the LST and it made quick work of finding all of the coins near and under the rusty nails, SWEEEET.

I will agree with you and the Lobo is amazing. I would like to put the HOT 5.75 coil on it and a 9x8 coil for coins and relics. Tesoro has got it goin on with their detector lineup! Ok enjoy that Lobo and happy huntin!

The Tejon is deeper, but when using a 5.75 DD coil on both machines, I think the LST is better at shooting thru rusty nails, maybe it is because it has fast retune speed, or maybe because it runs quiet in disc mode. The Tejon has a slower retune speed in disc mode and fast retune in pinpoint and it will let you know there are trash targets by tic's, pop's and chirps, but that is ok, just telling you to slow down. The LST has a fast retune speed in disc mode and a fast retune speed, with no motion pinpoint mode, but will run smooth and quiet in disc mode, both are excellent build quality and a real joy to hunt with.
