I cant imagine the Bliss testing that poorly unless there was problem with unit.
In the short time i have run it in my mild ground most finds have been deep.
Some have been head to head with another machine that could not see the good target.
In a very small park about 100 x 250 that has been hit very hard i got a must dig signal.
Had my bud swing his machine over and said it was all over

I didnt call anyone a liar. Just trying to remember something from a year ago.
Dont recall a written break down of the machine and from reading your post neither do you.

It looks more complicated than it is . Half the knobs are set and forget for the most part.
Found it easier than some machines with multi layer programs.
Does it need 2 ground balance conrtols ,no Does it need a volume control maybe not
It have impressed me in the short time i have had it. That what counts for me.

It happens with phones and computers everyday.
I would rather they put it out so we can choose to buy or not.
Better than having them sit on it, knowing they have a better unit and not releasing it .

i have had mine for just over a month . The manual was rewritten. and much easier to understand than the old version
My ground up in Mass is mild and find its very good at iron ID
Fisher and Whites both fall in the name trap making it confusing on whats what.
I think its deeper that my F75 with boost. But not a lot of head to head. to prove it.

I have the 5x10 and 13 for the GB ,Both great coils. Because i can Max sens most of the time even with the 13 i dont have to drop sens down.
In one quick tesT with 13 i got 1 1/2 inches over the 11 DD coil. in dry sand.
As chatty as the F75 can be , anything bigger than stock would make you drop sens down thus loosing some of the depth increase.
The 5 inch and 11 are a great combo for me

D Tone funny one. I have the same machines as u minus the 13 for the F75. and enjoy both in there spots.
Reading what out there so far, i would grab one if i had hot soil but mine is on the mild side
and not sure there would be much improvement from what i have already.
I will keep reading though.

I dont think everyone said that the VG is not a micro hunter. Only a few have tried it.
I dont think everyone slams the Vista machines here either. You have overstated this a few times now.
After reading Toms post again , he said the GB 2 is still the trump card. Simple as that.
Use it if you want but there are better micro hunters out like the . GB2.
Some say the GB Pro and AT Pro ca
