Rating The Tesoro Umax Models

[Joe D.]

  I just always preferred the umax units for ease of use and weight! I compare the lightness to the now very popular D2! Tesoro was ahead of their time for many things, but obviously, nothing is static in electronics, as life! ???

Not a very big market for a single tone analog machine so to build even just one model and try to recover the costs involved makes it a losing venture. Deeptech does have that niche covered and have some innovative models for those looking for analog machines.

Hard to outsell all the bells and whistles out there even when those single tone beepers are still so effective.

I've had the pleasure to own just about every tesoro that came down the pike. One in particular that didn't get much love that was a favorite of mine was the DeLeon. I had the 12in factory concentric coil on it and it was a beast. If i could hit the undo button, that one would still be here.

The Lobo ST is my favorite Tesoro. It comes with the ground balance set extremely positive. On the circuit board I turned the ground balance 3/4 of a turn negative and it was as far as it could go. Testing in all metal, the ground balance is now slightly negative after the adjustment.

My # 2  Tesoro is the Tejon.
