  1. This morning out there the blue a ad from Fisher Lab pops up on my phone giving me the run down of all things the AQ Limited. I don’t know why I was bestowed this honor so early in the morning. They let me know it was limited to 99 but my thinking is how long can 99 last. My thinking may be coming up short being they letting Kellyco sale them and they in turn increased the price it could be into the next century before the last one goes. Fisher is just up the road from where I live and I’ve been that way more than I count but never had the desire to stop. It’s sad to see a detector company fall bye the wayside but I don’t see a lot of future here. I really hope I’m wrong. Like another don’t what I call faith in a product they make by not having a transferable warranty they won’t last long. With all this advance technology is out there for the taking and not taking advantage of it then I say rest in peace. Chuck
  2. Sometimes it’s better to be safe than sorry. If you buy from a dealer would be better than buying from a unknown. With the dealer you will get what you paid for but on another form you won’t know until it’s too late. Chuck
  3. Jim I wish you the very best on your up coming surgery. My mother at 80 years had a triple bypass and come November she will be a 101 . About a year later she needed a pacemaker and she’s on her third one now. Until we meet here again I Wish You The Best. Chuck
  4. Am I seeing a head on whatever it is? If you rotate it where the large opening is straight out to the right the other part of it looks like a bird’s head. The recessed area on the side I see it’s eye 👁 . Being it gets smaller beyond the eye has to be it’s beak. Chuck PS It may not be a birds head but it is some kind of creature . Will you please post a picture looking head on to it. I do believe I’m looking at its eye on the side.
  5. it still could be a pipe because some was made with a screw in bowl. Just do a search for a screw in bowl for pipes and you’ll see what I’m talking about. Chuck
  6. So many times people ask like you what’s the best detector but what we should be asking is how good am I. I myself have been at this for years but in the past most was just turn on and go . Now days most detectors you can still turn on and go but if you want the full benefit then this is where your part of learning your detector kicks in . A detector will be no better than you make it.Most detectors now days require you spending time learning what it can do for you. Only you can make both of you better and that’s bye you reading watching videos and the main thing in the field finding out what your detector has to offer. In the field day after day of swinging it is going to give you more knowledge above all. In pass years I’ve said buy the best detector you can afford. Then get out there detecting and over time it will pay for it’s self . Now days I don’t see that anymore because people and me included got to have the latest and greatest. I wish you the best in whatever you buy. Chuck
  7. What I could see it would be best to classify down everything and not direct feed with a shovel due to over size rocks that won’t pass off the end. If I heard correct he said two inch slope per foot. In my opinion your fly specks gold will go off the end like a jet plane. That flour gold just may pay for that high dollar gas you’re burning. Chuck
  8. I can understand that Dimitar don’t shout it out to the world of something new he’s coming out with on a new Tarsacci but the trouble he don’t say anything . We see all the time of a company coming out with a new detector and don’t have a small coil in the makes and don’t show a interest on having one. Dimitar is truly one that fits that bill. I hope tomorrow will be a better day for Tarsacci and the year to come. Chuck
  9. One person’s trash can be another person’s treasure over time. Chuck
  10. They have the most dramatic way in music to express of something coming. Their music is like the 4th and New Years wrap up in one with a big explosion. Sure enough they coming out with what I called in the past a two box detector. Chuck
  11. I just got a email on this detector and it said wireless but it didn’t say the cost. Here I was thinking about getting another two box detector but in this case a two coil detector. Chuck
  12. I’ve seen more activity in a funeral home than what I see here. This is what happens when even the company don’t show interest in what people have to say and don’t respond to questions ask bye email. Sad to say something good could be something great in given time. Chuck
  13. At the cost of gasoline you better be sucking up more than a penny now and then. Chuck
  14. I wish each and everyone on the forum A Happy Fathers Day. May every target come up gold and above all be safe. Chuck
  15. I was in hopes that Mr Gargov would answer my email before Father’s Day but he needs to hurry if he plans on making that a gift to me. I just asked straight forward questions like 1 A new Tarsacci anytime soon 2 If not new then maybe a update on units coming out the door in the near future 3 If we would see a smaller coil being offered. The only time I got a response back was when I ask about a lower shaft and he came back saying they were available plus the cost. I informed Mr Gargov that I’d sold my Tarsacci but I’d be willing to buy another if it had something new to offer. At the same time I’d want to have the opportunity to buy a smaller coil other than ones being offered now. I must say I’m still kicking my backside for selling my Tarsacci. I’m not saying it’s was better than others on the market but it’s just I liked it for what it was. I’d never would have sold it if just had a small round are a elliptical coil one could of bought. I guess it’s a lost cause but I hope not. Chuck
  16. Well again I knocked at the door of Mr Gargov. I made a point to be a gentleman in anything I said. I did ask if we could expect to see a update are new Tarsacci with a smaller coil being none is being offered at this time. I express that I’d sold my Tarsacci but was willing to buy another if a new are one that had some updates plus a small coil that a lot of us would like. On the 8000 I made a point to address it in a positive way. In no way did I want to express negative atmosphere directed to the Tarsacci. I don’t know if I’ll get any response being none was coming from pass email. I sent him my address and cell number. He may tell me to go fly a kite but you can’t say I didn’t try. Chuck
  17. Mark it would be interesting to know what other Tarsacci show . Thanks for the post. Chuck
  18. Yes Chase I’d seen that already about not selling in the US and that’s why I made the statement on second line of my post. I guess I should have said and never will have any. haha Happy Father’s Day Chase. Chuck
  19. Maybe we should ask do they know when the next shipment will be in . I believe out of stock and never had any is saying the same. Please let us know if they ever have them in stock. I’m willing to take one around the block a few times. Who knows it could be the best thing that ever happened to me. Chuck
  20. Back in the early 70’s I hunted with a guy that couldn’t talk are hear and I must say that was interesting to go all day without saying a word. He didn’t want you to write anything down but we done it with hand signs . We both had a Whites 66 TR and would watch the big meter it had . I found him this thing that strapped to your wrist and plugged into a speaker Jack and when you detected something it would vibrate. I got it for him but he didn’t like it. I’d put a speaker Jack on my detector and I used a ear bud in one ear with a long cord . I’d looked at other things but he didn’t want any. The thing that has been done for a lot of us is with a vibrating handle. It’s kinda like the old lady that said where’s the beef . She couldn’t hear good so when it was her time to say where’s the beef someone would pull on the bottom of her long dress Chuck
  21. I thank you for letting me know. I have one standing in the corner of the room. it would be interesting to see if other detectors in the same test would come to the same conclusion as you did with the Legend. Chuck
  22. What detector are you using? If you said I can’t find it. Chuck
  23. Northeast I was looking for something else and ran across another I guess you could call a deep detector. If nothing else it’s something to look at and wonder.
  24. You can see for sure it had a wooden handle. Looking inside you can see the same type of a pin that you have in a shovel handle to keep it from pulling out . Being it’s hollow inside and not a solid point I don’t think it would take much of a beating . I guess that would depend on quality of the metal. Chuck
