Atpro vs tejon?

[A/CMan]

I have an Atpro but wondering about the tejon on coins and relics as toward depth quality build and performance? I know the Atpro is water proof just an all out check between the two, thanks

I cant swim, so I would have to take the Tejon. Honestly I hear lil about the Tejon and alot about the AT Pro. Done own one, so cant say anything else. Good Luck with the post.

Thanks, I'm defiantly a water hound I have the tiger shark and it's the best for H20 and it's a robust machine so I'm covered for the water now I want a tejon, HH acman

I have both the Tejon and the AT PRO and can say if the Tejon was waterproof it would be as good a a Sov GT waterproof. The ATP in my opinion is unstable and falses to easy in the water and even on land within two bars of full sens. You can back off the sens on the ATP and even while holding it still, it beeps. This is not electrical interference from some other source like cell phones, microwave towers. The ATP has a meter which doesn't lock on to the target and the numbers bounce all over but keep coming back to certain ones. The Tejon has two seperate disc levels for checking a target and not just a notch system. I have stopped using the ATP.

Thanks for the info!

If you are a relic hunter, then the Tejon would be the best. I used one for a few days and really didn't like it. That is just a personal choice and many love it. I was after coins and a buddy with an ace 250 sent me home with my tail between my legs.

The atpro is far the better of the two i have both.even cheaper than the tejon. and its better
I dont know why some says they can get their to lock on i have no problims with mine. here in Ga red clay & high mineral , I also know several who have them and dont have any problims about locking on.
most detector wont lock on if its deep and your barly getting a reading

Thanks I will give my Atpro more time. HH acman

Sandmans ATpro is broke, but I dont think he believes it. Mine doesnt false and locks on.

I have two AT PRO's, one newer than the other by a year. Both have been adjusted by Garrett a couple times and they still aren't up to par. Oh, the second one can be used with some success, but I feel I have lost total confidence with them. When you have stable detectors of other models you wonder why you want to waste more time with a ATP. Well, maybe that is a little strong. Even shallow targets don't lock on to numbers. That isn't important if you have a trained ear.

Maybe its the soil where you live, here in Florida the ground is really mild. Your AT may not be broke, it just might not handle your ground very well. Mine may act the same way where you live.

It has to be some kind of electrical interference because mine isn't the only one to be acting up near me. We've tried all the freq settings, different times of day and locations. ATP just might be too hot for our area. So this means our other detectors are broke.?

All I know is that mine works nothing like yours...sorry you cant figure it out...at least you have other detectors.

Well there's the warning. The AT Pro either doesn't handle EMI to well or can't cope with ground conditions that other detectors can manage. Shows you have to pick what works well where you detect and not rely on reports/field tests made hundreds of miles away.
