I had to send in my back up detector to Tesoro because it wouldn't Ground Balance and was unstable. I got it back today all fixed and recalibrated to the ten inch coil. Has a blue set of earphones now instead of the black ones. They replaced some guts too so I had to test it a few minutes ago in my garden. All works well and it still picks up the gold chain stretched out 2" down. It is the only detector that consistantly makes a sound on it. Excal makes a iffy sound that I would normally ignore.

Now I will probably drop it on the driveway.

Ian, it arrived July 11 Th. and was shipped July 26 Th. Times would vary of course according to how many they have to repair ahead of you.

Sandman, it sounds like the Tiger Shark would be a good water detector? It also sounds like Tesoro themselves, back their products well.
