I have just purchased a (Sears)Whites db/4 For nostalgia sake.
Is any one out there familiar with this detector.
Is it worth using or just a closet hanger?
any tips on using it that I have forgotten?It has been about 30 years since Iv,e owned this model.
Thanks,[email protected]
 
I have a Coinmaster 4 DB in my stable. Probably has not been used 10 hours and only 1 hr by me. Seems to be a fine machine but would have to get used to the ground ballance. I also like to run mine with no threshold
tone but with the push button balance I find it hard to do. Several more times out with it would help. It als has the 11inch extra coil which is new. It should be fine but as any machine you have to get used to what it is telling you.

4/db

Thanks poptop
Its been some years since IV,e used manual ground balance.
Mine has the 6" coil which would be good in the trashy areas Iv,e been searching.Iv,e recently bought an Eagle 2 but haven,t (received it yet)I had one when they were new and Loved it,after i learned the secrets ,also have a prizm4 that I plan to trade up on an xlt when finances permit.
I must say I do prefer a minimum threshold,maybe a hold over from My BFO/vlf days.
Best regards and HH,Mont
