A rooster that lays eggs?

Xavier : I think the detector industry has gone too far with prices. I don't know what they pay their reps but enough is enough. When I started in 1970 I never thought there would be a 1000$ detector now it's 2000$ and higher. just a mess. and the depth is about 2-3 inches better than in 1970, but compare cost, like you said way too high,especially when you folks can make one for about 200$ or less.

What are we talking now? If you use the PI you put one coil on it and if you use the VLF you must swap the coil? Umm that could be a pain in the  but it would make sense to me  But I am still wondering how they get the depth out of it  also why other detectors are not getting these depths  at least I do not think so

I hate to say it but the othet countries are getting good depth out of their detectors unlike the usa.With all the hoopla with ML. their detectors do not seem any deeper than their old ones,not talking their pulses just their vlf's. The Dues and the Deepers and Blisstool are all killers and their just basic detectors. Our (USA) detectors have gone the way of the ID and depth reading junkies which they don't go any deeper than the older models. I'm not one for an Id or depth guage on my detector.just a waste of money for me.Some say we (USA) cannot go any deeper due to power restrictions  from federal govt. But how are the others across the pond doing it with the same box of tools?  The Minelabs are the deepest pulses for gold but their sucking all the money up from high gold prices. Given gold to be just 50 bucks an ounce what would they do about their prices then???  The only acomplishment in pulses would seem to come from Whites (eric foster) where they have good disc on them even up to screw caps !!!!!  Really liked my TDI but was a hand full of weight to use.  What country you in Xavier   Can't keep you all figgured out as to what countties etc.  thanks  shortribs  Usa

Hi shortribs

I live in South Africa if you want know in what country the member resides just place your mouse pointer on the flag under the avatar. I believe that there are restrictions as far as power is concerned but that's what they do in F1 racing and the guys still keep going faster all the time. I actually think that it's a good thing as this forces the technology forward making the machine lighter and better. I'm not much of a fan for ID or depth of the object (I still need to see one that works) and yes it's a waste of money to me too but folks want gadgets so the industry give it to them all I want is an audio that will change with different metals and a battery indicator.

I think that I'll be quite happy when my TGSL kit arrives and making it work the way that I want it to.
