Vaquero all-metal mode sensativity.

[rockpup1]

I was wondering if the vaqueros sensativity pot worked in all-metal mode.I cant remember, I think it did but maybe it was full-blast all-metal.
Maybe some one could explain this.

I been thinking about getting another Vaquero with a 5.75 concentric coil for nuggets,Its soooo much smaller than that big ole lobo super.
I think the 5.75" concentric would have a little more sensativity over the DD of the same size,I had the DD and it was pretty dang senstive to small-semi small nuggets.
I just like the disc cicuit so I can still do some relic hunting.It has its down falls-loves iron pyrite-loves to detect it goes nutty on wet fresh water beachs in my area due to the minereals concentated by water action.You just keep it to th dry areas and use differant setting's for the minereal streaks and wet areas.

I can get a LOBO orginal.For around $300 shipped.Just wondering if it can use the newer coils or can you geta adapter to do so?

Any input be great.
Chris.

V's sensativity only tided to disc

The Tejon etc coils don't fit on the Lobo Original, they are both 4 pins but the original is male and tejon is female. I've changed the connector and it will work but ground balance can't be adjusted and discrimination level shifts (to discriminate small iron the knob stands beyond foil)

Thanks for the reply guys.Answered all my questions.

I think I will be going with the new goldbugpro.

I missed my chance for a diablo 2 Umax. I think it would be the best backpack metal detector in the world for nuggets.Rugged small and powerfull.
I dont like a display on my gold machine's-mountain terain is hard on enough on machines.
