- Detector(s) used
- Current Stable includes: Compadre, Golden Sabre II, Cortes, Impact, Gold Kruzer, Eurotek Pro, Omega 8500, F75LTD, V3, Xterra 705 and an Etrac.
I still hunt my Tesoro units.....a Compadre and a couple of Golden Sabre II and a Cortes.
I normally run the Cleansweep coil on the Compadre (I put a plug on it so I could change out coils).
The GSII runs best with the stock 8" concentric and that's all I run on it. You lose the analog audio benefits if you try running DD coils on it.
Got a VDI display to attach to GSII but been hunting a housing for it before tying into the board.
Cortes is pretty good if you have the patience to check every signal. This is my 6th one and the target id is a bit off. Hopefully now that I'm retired I can crack it open and see what the problem is. Its still huntable but the Nickle id is too low.
Anyway....I like visiting about Tesoro detectors.
