A Tale Of Two Detectors!


Recommended Posts


Wow Steve,

That a fantastic list of achievements by Dave Johnson! 

   It would be great to have a bio of each key developer and engineer, and than; Where Are They Now! Retired, consulting, active, etc...

   I'm guessing that there is probably a book or two compiled somewhere, with much of this info! 👍👍

Pink doesn't look too bad, more like the underside of a diner counter or table 🙂

I'd test the stock coils first and see what you may need once your used to the machines.

Congrats on the new toys!

      Thankfully i got the coils a couple hours later today!🎉 So i went right to work getting them configured the way i initially planned to use them!

 The Beach Setup:  The G2+ "Pinky" has changed her colors! Now sporting a Jeff Herke arm cuff, a neoprene pod cover, and a Detech Ultimate 13" coil!  Also has a Nel Snake 3.5x6.5 coil!

The Trashy Parks Setup: The MXT now is sporting the Ultimate 7" coil! Still have to find a box and pod cover! Also has a Detech Ultimate 13" coil!

   Plus i still will use their original coils, if needed! So there went my budget for the year!💣💥  Now i need to gather my yearly finds together, and cash them in!💰 Can't wait for the testing phase to commence!!

More to Come!!👍👍

I went the opposite with my mxt. I got the 13" detech ultimate like you did for your T2. 

 

I am looking forward to it too. I almost got the 7 inch but I figured I have my XP units for contaminated areas. 

 

I been looking somewhat for a set of covers for my mxt too. Hard to find.

  I found a few in the Ukraine; that was it!  That cover didn't have any holes for the knobs and toggles though! What good is that!!

 Another was for a different box model, the DFX i think! But had too many hole's! Can't win it seems! I contacted Doc of Doc's covers, but he only does MineLabs! And didn't have any suggestions for the Whites! And i have looked on many sites! I guess the search goes on!👍👍

Great coil set for the G2+, IMO.  I have the 13" Ultimate on my F75 and am looking for a used Snake/Shrew.  Not sure I even need the three Fisher coils that I own (7"x11" DD, 6" x 10" Concentric, 5" DD) once I find a Shrew.

I'm curious for / anticipating your report on the Detech 7" for the MXT.
