good bang for the buck 
2008-02-15
I bought this during a Friday Sale for the price of a Tracker IV. This is an excellent all purpose metal detector. Where it differs from other detectors in the price range: it is designed to go deep with a slow (slower than the normal 2 feet per second) back and forth sweeping action. This "slow" technique makes pinpointing (zeroing in on target) much easier. Adding the 4" coil brings pinpointing down to a 2" sweep.
Like all metal detectors, there is a learning curve to get the most from this unit. If you want an easy set-up, put the two control knobs at the point where the dots change color and hit the "Auto Notch" button, you will get most coins and jewelery (you will miss some gold). If you need to find property boundary markers, set it on "All Metal". If you want to detect at the saltwater (wet) shore, hit the "Disc" button and turn the "Sensitivity" down (less sensitive) and use the 4" coil. Coils are waterproof, rinse after each days use.
This unit is the same as the Radio Shack Discovery 2000. The Radio Shack owner's manual has more information than on setting up the unit and is available on-line.
The Bonus Gift comes with an 8"x8"x28" carry bag. The carry bag has an outside zippered pocket on one end and an inside Velcro tabbed pocket along one side. There are two Velcro loops inside on the bottom. The pouch is an open "hip" or "fanny" pack with one Velcro close tab and a 1" belt that fits a 42" waist. The trowel is a nylon/fiberglass Fiskars #7879.
