Just Wondering

Two is about it with the exception of disc. With the umax you can pretty much disc all but the large iron out and still pound copper or silver even most clad. The circuitry of a tesoro will allow you to not hear small bits of iron anywhere near your target. When hunting for silver I run 1/2 way between zinc and max disc, this still allows me to pick up some clad to not make for a boring day. I'm a big fan of low recovery speeds on other machines, swing speed is much more important. As for tones on a Tesoro They are hard to explain you have to run one for a while to start to understand the fades, crackles and rolls.

Why so few Tesoro's for sale?

Because those that were going to sell sold them long ago. Those that still have them either are keeping them to use, or just can’t be bothered to sell. I’d not read much more into it than that.

Basic VLF performance has not changed that much in 30 years. So yeah, you can use almost anything and do well, if you know what you are doing. The key is not the latest new toy, it’s research and good locations…. plus hours.
