Old vs New Technology

1991 VS 2023

Live it

Old is still good!

And fun. And informative. Snobby people are neither.
Some of the older units have useful features more modern ones do not, or are hidden & not User adjustable. All in all, I think we are currently living in the "Golden Age" of detectors. It's a good thing because the "Golden Age" of loaded virgin sites will never return.

Excellent point(s)JCR.----Especially your last two sentences!

I still run an FBS unit along with my Deus 2, I don't think my Explorer will ever be obsolete, as long as my shoulder and back hold out.

Those old analogs though have a language all there own that a digital just can not match to my old ears anyway.

Those analogs have a language all to their own that a digital can not match IMO.

I still keep a few older detectors. In my 54th year detecting.

Good point. Old single tone detectors have a language.

Nothing beats the sound of my old Garrett Deep Seeker when it groooooooooaaans over a deep artillery shell.Aaaaah to do it all again.
