Melano87 Posted December 15, 2022 Share Posted December 15, 2022 Hi, I wanted to share a simple website from an enthusiast French guy. Perhaps unknown across the Atlantic, listing many old brands of metal detectors, with photos etc. For the nostalgic https://detecteurmetaux2.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digger Daz Posted December 15, 2022 Share Posted December 15, 2022 Going to enjoy looking through these..a trip down memory lane…even got my first detector on there.. Cscope VLF TR 990B…really got me going in the Hobby, trouble was the 4 9v square batteries cost me a fortune at the time (I was only 14 back then).

RickUK Posted December 15, 2022 Share Posted December 15, 2022 That website brings back some happy memories,i still own 2 Arado 120b machines which still work and also a FieldMaster and a couple of other old classics,3 Lasers B1 and B2 and a souped up Trident Extreme....one that was very near to buying was the Saxon X-1,at the time one of the deepest machine around.

PimentoUK Posted December 15, 2022 Share Posted December 15, 2022 I doubt that site is known at all in the English-speaking world. I discovered it several years ago while searching for info about my vintage Whites Coinmaster 2 / DH. https://detecteurmetaux2.blogspot.com/2015/06/detecteur-metaux-coinmaster-2-d.html I'm part-way through restoring it. I have it functioning correctly, I just need to put it back together, then take it for a spin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He must of spent hours getting all this info. My first detector was a Heathkit GD-48 that I built from their kit in 1968.
