The standard DD coil on the F75 compared to the 10 inch concentric in moderate soil. Indiana soil seem not to be all that bad. I know the DD likes round rusty caps. Same as the coinstrike does. My E-trac does not pick them up even though it also has a DD pro coil. any advice! thanks in advance ..you do a great job and not close minded as some fisher dealers seem to be!

MY main complaint is the weight... It is a great detector.. I have found silver coins in places ethat I have hunted for years.. the other day right in front of the shelter hous had the 6 in. coil and found about 3 inches deep, walking libery half. Hard to tell how many guys had gone over it with a larger coil and missed it due to trash....Actually found 2 halves that week.. tried the v3 but it h

those two combinations will be interesting,and should do the trick. thought about the vision, but seems a little too complicated as I have never even use the DFX.....think having a DFX in the past would help a little with the Vision?

I agree 100%. on one forum they do not like to talk about comparisons. The et and the vision. They say you cant compare???. I reallly enjoy reading about the different compaisons as long as the guy giving the comparison did not get his detector FREE!

i have gone to at least 4 places that we have hunted VERY hard over the years. Almost every time I find 2-4 peices of silver that is deeper than usual. Seems to me that the et is going deeper than others that we have used in these areas. QUESTION is, what is your opinion TD of the E-trac. anyone elses opinion is also appreciated... I do have a Vision on order? Have used the f-75 for a short

found a 42 dime in a place that we have hunted hard. Now, not to say I could not have found it with my f-75 but I was to lazy to go back to my truck to get my 75 and double check the signal. I think that is the ONLY way to compare detectors. Compare signals, then dig to see which one gave best info. I am thinking seriously about the E trac,but I have never used the explorer series. any thoug

Was told that you use the f-75 most of the time for coin hunting. I have both of those units. Do you like the 75 better than the 3d? How do you compare the 2 for coin hunting? thanks Sonny..ps also have the cz 70 pro and the cz 21. going to sell the cz 70 pro I think......

is that considered one of the good serial numbers? Hunted apx 20 minutes in a place we have hunted many many times and found a 42 dime. Pretty close to some iron signals. I have an F-75 , but did not take it to check out the signal. Wish I had of done so..

this was not a test garden.. actual find. Since the cz 70 pro reads in 2 inch increments it was more accurate the the F-70. The first reading for a cz 70 pro is 2 inches. The coins was apx 1 -1.5 inches also checked the hole afterwards and nothing else was there...Have a feeling the F-70 is WAY off on depth readings.. Sonny
