Wow a definite deep seeker it would seem. I think anything with threshold seems to be able to do more. I do like the layout of the f19 screen, easily readable unlike the Garrett AT pro and gold. Only thing I don't like is how fisher quality feels, comes across as cheaper quality but it doesn't act it.

The F-19 gets good depth, but what impresses me the most is how it can hit a nickel in the middle and laying under a handful of nails! My Eurotek Pro with the 11" DD actually surprised me in the same test I was doing last week. I think the Racer may be just a very tad bit better in iron, but not by enough for me to trade for one.

The f19 is certainly a wise choice to go with. I'd buy one if I didn't have enough already but can one have too many detectors?

The only regret I have is not knowing they were coming out with a G2+ (didn't see it in the crystal ball!) It is identical to the F-19 but with the better T-2 style handle.
