Hey guys, I have both a Tesoro Lobo and a Lobo Supertraq.
The LST has some problems which seem to be a show stopper. There's a loud threshold noise no matter what and it's not picking up metal on max sensitivity in All Metal mode. Disc is also set to 0 / min which shouldn't matter in All Metal if I'm not mistaken. Disc mode doesn't work at all. No threshold noise but not picking up on any metal at max sensitivity and min disc.
Tried re-seating the coil connector and moving the wires just a bit to see if any change but no luck. Filed for a return on the LST as the Lobo I have has none of these issues (no problems with the old model and it's arguably more complicated of a unit to tune).
Have looked at troubleshooting in the manual as well but it seems like a dead end. Just throwing this info out in case anyone has recommendations for something I may be missing. Thanks for reading!
