    Tesoro Cibola Mod

    Who can add a ground balance control to a Cibola? I have heard the name Keith Parker, but can't find any more info on the internet.
    Thanks, Jerry

    there is a pot inside the cibola
    you can tune the threshold higher or lower depending on the soil condition
    the only draw back is you need to take off the electronics box cover
    tune it
    then put it on
    and hope its tuned right

    Would this mod be better than or even as good as a Vaquero?

    Re: Tesoro Cibola Mod

    But you can hypertune the Cibola anyhow, without taking it apart...


    The threshold button is not inside the box--it is an external knob.


    The question was about ground balance anyhow. I'm sure there is a mod to manual ground balance any detector. Keith would be a good person to start with--but it might be dangerous for your warranty, I just don't know.

    I'm with "Planet1mars", don't risk messing up your warranty. It isn't worth it. Joe

    This post was a little while ago, Jerry,but if you are still interested, and not concerned about your warranty, here's a link with pictures on a Cibola GB mod.

    Thats why I got a V machine. If your going to spend some on the mod, why not see how much it'll cost you to trade up to the V. No warranty issues.
