Over 1000 hours on my F75 and it has to take the dredded Road Trip to get a few things fixed and Modded. Man is it going to be missed. Still got 13 ma

- Start date
Don't seem to get as much depth as it used too. When trying to G/B on the fly even in good ground it works some times and some times it don't. 
So I just do a manual G/B. I hunt in all metal 80% of the time anyway. I am not worried First Texas is Fast and they do good work. so far anyway with me. 
I sent my ID Excell in to get the screen replaced so I can get rid of it. It is going over to GA. I just wanted it in Mint shape before it took a trip. Sent the two F probes to get the end cap fixed. the won't stay on. Maybe they got a fix for that. As soon as they get back will sell them. so I drug out my Xterra 70 and put the new 10.5" 7.5 Khz coil and went to dig some deep stuff today. It was a good hunt and a little productive and I was very pleased with its depth and goodies. Going to call tomorrow to see if they got the F75 and small coil that I sent along with the machine. HH Later

Well I said 13 but looks like a few more showed up
Thats what happends when you get old and slow. Next few months I am going to cut the heard down some. Coarse I said that years ago. : : Hell I 
them all. None are used. I don't buy used.
Got a pocket probe pinpointer with external speaker on it, Tiney Tech. pinpoint probe, vibra-probe, 2 Fisher f Pinpoint probes. Don't know how many headphones sets I got. Only use the 2 Timberwolfs and the Shadow phones.
The one nice thing about having all these machines is I never have to worry about getting Althzhimers desease. Hell, it is all I can do to remember how they all work but I can do it and I really can make them hunt like they are supposed to. I have to go back and reread the instructions some times on some of them. That is very rare though as I hunt with them all and nobody gets left out and collects dust. That is the fun part. Well you asked so I thought I would post the machines and coils I have. I always wanted to do that but no one ever asked.: :
Since I am old and Slow I got the lower and upper rods for all the coils and they are all fit to my height so all I have to do is click one out and click another in place and hook up the connector and I am off and hunting. You know when you get old you don't need any frustration. Every minute counts when you get old
Thanks for asking I enjoyed Posting that one. It is water hunting time down here so it is time to hit the water. I love hunting the water and getting that GOLD.: : Later Bud, again thanks for asking Jerry aka Tinfoil

Brian,
I have never been to the UK but always thought the the Coinstirke would do great over there. You never read anything about UK hunters using it. Do you have any experience with it in UK ground??
Thanks
Tom
