I bought a Mikron NRG 110 about a year ago. It seemed to air test very well, but when I took it outside to try it, it went crazy on me. I called the dealer and ended up sending it back for a refund. The dealer said he bought three detectors to try and two had been defective. I would like to had...

I own a Lady Shadow X2 with the super 7 coil. Getting harder to find nice X2's, and they seem to hold their value.

The 1220x was my first good detector back in the early 80's....great little detector. I just found a new old stock 1220x on craigslist for 70 bucks shipped ! I'm anxious to get the 1220x out once again ! Roger

I owned one of these detectors back in the early 80's when they were introduced. Great little detector and founds lots of coins with it. I have been wanting to find another 1220x for nostalgic reasons and all the good memories I have of using that detector. Just happened to find one on...

The Shadow X2 I used to own had either an A or B in the serial number on the detector. If my memory serves me correctly the B at the end of the serial number indicated it was a Lady Shadow running at 9.6 kHz.

ryaan21, the Tesoro Cortes has the SUM mode switch but you have to hold it in place as you sweep over the target. Never made much sense to me to have it set up that way and didn't care for it so I traded the Cortes off..........HH Roger

Personally I would go with the Vaquero. It is much deeper than the Deleon and runs very smooth and quiet. I owned a Deleon for a while and it is a nice detector, but I think it would be a much better machine with manual ground balance in the disc mode The Vaquero will cover all the bases for...

I am well aware of Tesoro's new policy of charging a small fee to repair a detector if you are not the original owner. At the time I made my post about their detectors having a lifetime warranty Tesoro was repairing detectors for free if you were the 2nd or 3rd owner of the detector. I believe...

sorry, but someone contacted me about my bitters bottle and I accidently deleted the email. please email me again at roger@irtc.net or call me at 217-371-6059.....sorry for the trouble. Roger

I have dug silver dimes at least 7 inches with my Tejon before with a solid signal and Killer B's headphones. I'm sure it will go much deeper than that on a dime in good ground. Quality headphones are a must with the Tejon to hear those really deep small targets. It loves nickels, lead and brass...

You can pick up a nice Vaquero for 300.00 about anytime on the different detector classifieds. I wouldn't pay 300.00 for a well worn Vaquero personally.

I tried the Cortes and did not like that it didn't have manual ground balance in the disc mode. The SUM feature was a waste of time and effort in my opinion... unloaded the detector as soon as I could and got a Vaquero.

Here's a C H Swains Bourbon Bitters I found under the porch of an old house.

Welcome Tim, I'm not too far from you, near Jacksonville Illinois. Here's my cell phone number if you would like to talk sometime. 217-371-6059. Roger

DiggerinVA, Make sure you have a good ground balance on the Tejon, this is very important. Try pulling the trigger and ground balancing the detector.... it seems to be much easier using the fast retune to ground balance than using the slow retune of all metal mode. I own a Tejon and can assure...

Killer B's sound great with the Tejon.

I may also be interested in trading for silver coins or bullion, or a large coil for my Tejon. Let me know what you have to trade.

I have read that the CZ's are labor intensive to manufacture...like 20 some settings to be made on them. I'm sure the digital fishers are easier to manufacture and have a higher profit margin than the CZ's. The CZ's are some of the deepest detectors I have ever owned. My favorite one is the...

I'm interested in selling a scarce Chicago area bitters bottle and a very nice Warner's Safe Kidney and Liver Cure bottle Asking 150.00 for the C.H Swains Bourbon Bitters and 50.00 for the Warners Safe Kidney and Liver Cure. Price includes shipping and insurance. The Bourbon Bitters has one very...
