TIME RANGER

[e50227]

Can anyone tell me if the Time Ranger is a good detector for salt water beach hunting? Does it have a problem with wet sand?

I don't know about salt water searching, but the coil is waterproof, and if you rinse off the coil after use, you shouldn't have any problems. I have a Time Ranger and love it. I have had it in the lake an my in-laws. Did a manual ground balance, work like a charm. Any problems with wet sand and salt, you can do a manual ground balance.

Almost all single frequency detectors have trouble with salt water. Detectors like the Mine Lab and PI machines work the best.

Why is it called a "Time Ranger?"

Is there a time machine circuit in it or something?

If you use it on a battle ground from the war between the states will the user be transported back to the early 1860s?

Whats up with that name?

"Is there a time machine circuit in it or something?"

Mark. I like that! Very cool.
As for why it's called a "Time Ranger?" No idea. I often wondered that myself. Maybe because it's so cool, you'll spend allot of time using it.
Wish it had a time circuit in it "Flux Capacitor?" But wouldn't it be cool to go back in time and use a MT to search for stuff?

Well Drummerman, it would be cool going back in time with a MD, however I would most likely be accused of being a witch or something and then being stoned to death. That part I would not find to be cool.

Hope I helped with my answer.

Called the Time ranger because it helps you find things from long forgoten times

"Called the Time ranger because it helps you find things from long forgoten times"

Sounds logical.
