Al Jones up & moved to north Georgia, where he ran his detector business until the end of last year, I believe. He completely folded up shop, & sold everything. Every once in a blue moon, he posts on TDepot.
I miss the "good old days" when Al had his shop at 43rd and Northern. He was one of the best metal detector dealers ever. He always made time to talk with a customer and his walls were lined with photos of their finds. I havn't heard from him in a very long time.
