Hi All, new to TNET. Im a 54 years young and thought that looking for buried treasure would be a fun hobby, in between golf and watching my kids play soccer.
Well I bought a silver umax and before I have received it I'm already looking at buying a Lobo MT.
What is the difference with the lobo vs. Lobo st? I live in California south of San Francisco would these MT's work in soil here. Thanks in advance ???

TESORO!
The lobo SuperTraq has automatic ground tracking, meaning it will adjust itself to the mineralization in the ground automatically. If you have the option, go with the ST! :)

He told me that the old lobo was just that..Old the electronics don't compair to today's ST. They can't modify it to bring to today's standard Also they don't make search coils for it but he could rebuilt it. No warranty. He said not buy it.

Yeah, I bought the silver umax should get it any day now. Cant wait to get out there and do some diggen hahaha. I really wanted a Vaquero but they are out of my price range. Heck to tell you the truth I may not like this sport/hobby that's why I didn't go for the vaquero. Didn't want to spend too much money on something that I may not like to do. So I got the silver umax. Figured id go for tot lot, parks,beach. see how it go's. Anyway thanks to all that responded.

I hope you stick with it, but if you don't you will be able to sell that silver VERY easily on ebay or the classified. Good luck and let us know how you do
