Fisher is a legend in Made in America detectors why aren't they getting in on the detector wars? I bet they would come up with something epic!

So Garrett finally released a new line of detectors to get in the competition so where are the new higher tech Fishers?

I can't figure that crowd out. I'm thinking everything they sell is made in China since almost everything they sell has been cloned by China.

Dave j probably doesn't work there anymore. He was instrumental in all there offerings. Parent company doesn't see any value so they are out of it.

Spot on!!! Dave Johnson is no longer involved with Designing
Fisher Detectors. If I remember correctly , I thought I read about him having Health issues a good while back. Fisher has NO--ONE left to Design
or more or less bring anything new to the Tables...
Love my CZ 3d though. Can't go wrong with an Anolouge CZ.
All the Ol time Designers are GONE. Just look at Whites, Tesoro,
Compass(John Earle) one of the Greats, Carl Mooreland etc. etc

They’ve been selling their detectors at clearance prices on feebay. That and with no engineers for new machines my guess is they’re getting out of the detecting business.

Probably not enough profit to make it worth while. Loose your top engineer and all goes away. If you can't sell anything new you can't price for profit.
