Re: Questions about KellyCo Underwater MD's

I'd stay away from the Viper and Cobra Kellyco brands. Those that have them aren't happy. Stick with the national brand names.

The Fisher 1280 is a great detector and very easy to use. Built like a tank and ya won't have to mortgage the house to buy it. Make sure you get the 10" coil.

Re: Questions about KellyCo Underwater MD's

own a viper trident. trust me stay away from this one. It is heavy hard to use and pinpointing with it is almost impossible especially in the water. I have found coins and a knife with it but not one ring or jewelry of any type. I bought this along with an mpx based on the write ups and reviews from kellyco. I was a newbie at the time. I recommend reading the beach forum and ask the people there what they use. I wish I had I could have saved a lot of money on detectors I bought and gave up trying to use. Sigh live and learn.

Boy, you guys are lucky to have the internet to do research on which detectors and equipement to buy. When I started many years ago Al Gore hadn't invented the Internet yet and there wasn't anyone to learn from. Many of us did it by trial and error. I used to believe the advertisements of "More Depth" ect.

I think Al stretched the truth a little bit about inventing the internet. But they paid him back good by stealing the election from him in Florida.
