Getting back to detecting. F-75 ltd

Hello all. I've spent many days here on Tom's board and received a lot of good info, and actually purchased a CZ3D from Tom that he set up for me. Alas, I had to sell my machines after a divorce a couple of years ago and am starting to look for a machine again I have to save up some cash, or buy a used machine, but I'll make it sooner or later. I had to laugh at myself, because when I was active on the forums before there was a college kid with great enthusiasm for detecting, but no money or detector. He posted and enjoyed our finds. I ended up buying him detector, albiet an entry level, but detector none the less. Now, here I am in his shoes. The Irony of it all.
Anyway.

I'm wondering if the consencious is still the the Fisher F-75+LTD is the best all round machine.
Blessings, Ken

Are you a relic hunter............ or......... old coins hunter?
What State do you live in? (((This tells about your dirt/mineralization level you will contend with))).

Hi, Tom.

Moving to the Louisville Ky, area, 25 miles south of the Ohio river, in four months. Coinshooting mostly, but this area may bode well for relics, too. I've already read your extensive field test information on the LTD, Tom, thanks for the entensive information.
Thanks, Ken

Ken...... Hmmmm.......... due to relic rich dirt Ky........... I would lean more towards a F75 SE (which is the LTD replacement). You are bordering very hot/mineralized dirt......... almost leaning you towards a Minelab Explorer/E-Trac........ or XP GMP or Deus.

Hello Ken, nice to have you back! Because of your act of kindness and you sold me your cz 3d at a fair price, I am willing 2 send you a pioneer 505 at no charge? My Father bought at a auction for $20 dollars wich i gladly gave him $20 for it.Until you can buy that f-75 then you can give it to another friend?Pm your address if you are interested i might still have it (your address) not sure HH

That would be super cool, thanks ROY.............

Tom, I'd like to be ble to use the F-75 se. I'm a coinshooter at heart, and I'm an Ohio guy and travel there to that lomey soil often.......... Thanks for the info.

Ken

Kas......... understand. I should check my inventory...... to see if I have a new-in-box "validated" unit.

it will give you alot smoother learning experince if you have one that runs right in the long run...

Hi Ken, I live in the Eastern part of KY, and I think you need to check, but about 95% of Louisville KY is NO DETECTING, even in parks. I think they passed that law about 1or 11/2 years ago. Make sure you check befor you go. Good Luck Flintstone

I'm going to be out in spencer county, fisherville area. I don't do much park hunting or city hunting. I like to research sights like train depots long torn down, log cabins, and old farmsteads, picnic grounds,etc.

PM "Deno" on Findmall. He lives in Louisville and can give you the straight scoop. I met him last year... great guy!

Thanks, Will do!
