NEED HELP!!

[sacul]

Hello all you Fisher experts!!! Which older Fisher detectors, designed for coin hunting, run at a frequency of 5Khz or less and have manual ground balance? I need a detector for mineralized (ferrous oxide) ground. Only do coin hunting around old buildings - iron is mainly the trash. The 1280x looks enticing but has no manual ground balance - runs at 2.4Khz!! Much appreciated! Thanks! Dave

Definitely not a Fisher expert but most if not all of the CZ's have manual ground balance and run at 5 khz or 15 khz. There are other Fisher units that have below 5 khz but as you stated...do not have manual ground balance.
