Vaquero on the way

I recently got a new Vaquero and it is one sweet detector. I'm amazed at the tiny objects it finds and still gives a solid signal. Today I found a 1935 mercury dime that was on edge at about 8 inches. It gave a solid hit one way and a choppy signal the other but it gave a signal you would definitely dig.
It operates smooth and silent until you go over a target then it really lets you know something is under the coil. I'm very happy with my Vaquero and you will be too. It is a great detector with excellent discrimination and will certainly hit those deep targets with ease. I was running my disc at iron and checking good hits with the disc knob. Much more accurate than a meter I think. HH

I bought my Vaquesro locally ( Edit). It was the best money I have spent in the hobby so far. They just seem to work awsome and goes way deep compared to my previous detectors. Negative is I have to dig deeper to find my targets. I have the low tone and at first I did not like it but now I seem to prefer it. I do not beleive you will be dissapointed in this acquistion.
Enjoy!
Enjoy!
Usually I will set the disc at just a little below the foil line since the 3 gold rings I have found so far have come in above this mark.
Sense at at least 8 or higher if it won't chatter, and I usually supertune...set the thresh at 3 o'clock...higher than this will not be necessary.
Eventually, read up on Monte's advice on power balancing...just do a search.
Seems to really work.

I'm envious. That's my next machine. Good luck with her!
