This I feel is definitely combative behavior. Never seen a company like this. It's almost like watching a political ad in the USA. They talk alot about how bad the other guy is before talking about their own promises. I absolutely hate that kind of advertising. Also to note... Daniel has been detecting for decades like me and many others on here so to call him out as if he "wouldn

Steve, why not just build a quick release hinged mount that can fold forward for the pod? Buy a matching battery that comes in manticore and when battery is low just use quick release, fold pod forward , swap battery, snap back into place and keep detecting. I've seen these made for the equinox. And now since batter is user replaceable easily and quickly then it seems a mount that offers q

I had or thought I had all of my search modes in medium. That most likely wasn't the case. I was in the middle of a hunt and decided to try high conductor and thought I had switched to medium but I'm betting I didn't. In clean ground I also will use simple. It doesn't make sense to set default on HC mode with most modulation. Needs to be simple or at least medium.

I got it figured out right before I watched TN sharpshooter video for adjustments I had already did another factory reset and I was in the process of going through the adjustments when I seen his video pop up I must have hit the back button twice or something after I set my audio modulation to medium on the high conductor. That's all I can figure I wish I would have went in and checked that

Okay I'm running the manticore and I've noticed in all terrain high conductor only it has a much lower volume than all of the rest of the modes Even if I set them all up is close to exactly the same as I can. The same ground balance the horseshoe pressed for an all open screen , the same setting on speed and noise cancel, tones etc and I can run through all of the modes on the same volu

This is why I sell detectors when I feel something is coming down the pipe. The value is still there before a release so I sell. Then when the new one comes out I can either buy the new model or the older model much cheaper. Prices are goi

All of the above. Also zinc pennies come in at 42-44 on mine and dimes are 42-44. Copper pennies are coming in at 35-38 most and a few in the upper 50's to 60-1. Never had any other detector ever have a copper penny cause wrap around. Some other targets are not coming in a consistent range either. Makes it very difficult to use when targets are not coming in where they should .
