I have a number of Tesoro detectors. I have a RR track by this old ball field. It is very old. I do get EMI their too. I try to just turn things down to where I can pick out the good beeps. After it drives me crazy. I just go some place new for a while. I have found old coins their. I keep going back even for a little bit. KEN

My first Whites was the Eagle Spectrum. Than I got the water one. The Surfmaster II. Still using the Surfmaster. One of the best water machines I have ever had. And I had a few of the others. Don't know why they stopped making that detector.
Is anyone else using the old Surfmaster ? KEN

Dont feel bad. I can not get in either. Maybe I was a bad boy. Not even sure what I did. I have never bad mouth any one. I dont like that. I know they sometimes fight over whos detector is better or what ever. I dont care if someone else detector is better than mine. I just want to go out and have fun. I use mostly Tesoro and they do what I need. I dont like digging 18" holes anyway... KEN,

That would be a good idea. Maybe they could help come up with something interesting. I wish they would bring back the 1266x. A darn good detector... KEN

That sounds like a never ending job to me. Most any detector with a fast recovery speed with a small coil will help. I have a place I hunt once in a while when I feel like digging a lot. I use my little Tesoro Compadre with the small coil. I only look at a very small area. I work slow and easy. Listen for the solid signals. Than dig it. I have pulled out a truck load of trash. Did get a few silve

I also have been up and down the ladder. I been at this hobby for over 30 years now. I have seen detectors grow a lot. Well, I had to grow with them. I went up to them very high dollar detectors.
Some were to heavy for me. I sold them Some had too many bells and whistels. I sold them.. Some played a lot of music that I could not keep up with. Sold them too. I wanted back some of the very basi
