Tesoro Lobo vs Tesoro Lobo Supertraq

Hi to all you Tesoro lovers :)
I have one question for you...
What is difference in these two detectors Tesoro Lobo and Tesoro Lobo Supertraq.
Can't find much on Tesoro Lobo (plain).

Thank you!
 
I believe the major difference is the Lobo has manual ground balance and the Loba Super Trac has automatic ground tracking. Also, I believe the coil connections on the Lobo are not compatible with the coils that will work on the Super.

If anybody has an Original Lobo, I Have one of the small coils for it (6" elliptical). It needs a new home $50 shipped. Won't work on.
LST.
 
This is auction for Lobo (plain) on e-bay if I may post link ... not my auction

Rick I am in Europe ... $50 shipped ?
 
FYI - Lobo produced from 1989 to 1997, LST Produced 1997 to present.
 
Designer:
Lobo .. Jack Gifford
Lobo ST .. David Johnson


Production Dates: [size=small](with a 6-month overlap)[/size]
Lobo .. 12/'89 thru 6/'97
Lobo ST .. 1/'97 to Present


Operating Frequency:
Lobo 20 kHz
Lobo ST .. 17.[size=small]8[/size] kHz


Primary Differences in control operation:
Lobo .. Manual GB that affected BOTH the All Metal and Discriminate modes.
Lobo ST .. Auto-tracking in the All Metal mode, and factory preset GB in the Discriminate mode.


Added Comments:
They used their own search coil sets and do not share search coils.

Both can be very good general-purpose detectors but tend to excel in the gold nugget hunting category.

I have owned and used both in years past. I liked the Lobo SuperTRAQ, but in the end I preferred the 'original' Lobo with the operator-controlled Ground Balance for each search mode.

Thank you all for your answers.
Monte you done it all :)

I like my 6000 di pro sl too :)
 
I have and love my supertraq,my handle,but do wish it ground balanced in disc mode like the lobo.
