Why don't more detectors have...

Why don't more detectors have customizable tone settings or adjustable tone break? I really hate watching the VDI constantly when I'm looking for something particular...like Nickels for instance. I would expect those to be features in high demand.

If they did that then everyone would be using a Minelab.

And passing right over treasure.

They gotta hold something back on cheaper detectors to make you wanna buy the more expensive one.

If they ever come out with a detector that talks and says what the item is (by all indications ) I wouldn’t want anything to do with it. I used to be into astronomy and it was fun using star atlases and finding things of interest. I lost interest when they started selling “ go to” motorized telescopes that found everything for you. Took all the mystique and excitement right out of the pursuit.
I hope the same doesn’t happen with metal detecting.
