Keppy, I won't answer them anymore either. I figured most are newbies and don't know the difference not being familiar with the forum so I try to set them straight and answer the questions.

Charles Garrett worked for Texas Instruments and started his own company Garrett Metal Detectors. First Texas however is a corporation which owns many companies, like Keppy said.

Above I see a rather odd mixture of fact and fiction.

At least the part about J. W. Fishers and Fisher Research Labs being two different companies is correct.

For those who do not know the difference between Fisher Research Laboratories and JW Fisher detectors. Read these.
https://www.fisherlab.com/about.htm

History of JW Fisher Metal Detectors.
JW Fisher's Celebrates 50 Years of Innovation and Service

Fisher Labs patented the worlds first metal detector in 1931.
So by now they should know a fair bit about metal detectors after 87 years dontcha think?

Now everybody should be able to post in the correct forum.
