I've become very fond of the Nokta Fors Core gents...

I've got about maybe 12 hrs run time with the Core now. Some 9 hrs with the small very special coil and 3 hrs with the stock coil. The machine is unreal in trash period with the small coil. This might be the best of the best as far as I'm concerned when it comes to a small coil running on a machine. TID accuracy is outstanding. If you want to know whats in the ground glue your eyes on the TID mounted on the top of the handle if you want coins. If while numbers are moving all over and it blips an 82 just momentarily you just ran it over a penny, 85 a dime, 94 a quarter, 56 a nickel. Just let it blip those numbers and it is there 99% of the time. Even when you are removing other metals from the plug or the hole. I've had my eyes opened by this machine and it's ability to see through or better yet lets call it digest what's in the ground. A TID watchers or coin shooters dream. Now if you are into just conductive targets you better hold onto your hat it's that wild a ride. It's going to sing you a song you are gonna love. If it's round it's gonna say dig me now. There are some harmonics and modulating going on that I've really never seen except in an ETrac as far as sounds go. But it is in a Notka way. Very special nuances like a beavertail pull tab has a fuzzy halo type sound when you cross the field over them. Dug two today I called in my mind before I dug em. I'm using RAT phones so I don't know if that is giving an enhancement of any of the sounds but some things are very pronounced as I learn this machine. The stock coil, dug targets up to 10 inches with it. Both coils or rather the machine has an ability to lock onto a target seems like even in the presence of other metals or rather the detection field might be so narrow is why it accomplishes this, IDK but it really lets you isolate superbly. I have been running in DI2 up until today, switched the machine over to DI3 today and left it there. At first I didn't care for it then I started to see the advantages of it. I like it especially in the super heavy trash where the hunting has been going on where lot's of depth is impossible because of the amount of metal in the ground. DI3 is spectacular for pulling coins out of conductive trash. You can't say that about many machines! Ergonomics, the small coil mounted is like not even having a machine in your hand it's so balanced. The stock coil, well it's like running a nicely balanced detector. I'm predicting with what I've seen so far....... this machine with it's sensitive side and it's depth is going to be an absolute killer on a beach. That's coming very soon, almost did it today but ended up in the conductive and iron filled trash pits. Here's a pic of some of my finds over the 12 hrs dumped in a container. More later...........It's funny, only we can appreciate a picture like that.......

I am glad to hear the Fors is working out for you.. I have never seen a bad report on the Fors yet… And the way it is going i do not think i will ..Great detector priced right , and from what i hear good service.
