Well, not exactly a newbie, just been away a long while....
The first and only metal detector I have ever had was so old I could not get repair support on it because it was so old, even from the company that made it!
It was a Teknetics 7700 Coin Computer! Bought it back in 1985 and used it until around 2009 when it just crapped-out. Teknetics did not offer any support on it and seemed not to know anything about the old thing!
Now I'm looking for a new detector that I will mainly be coin and jewelry hunting with in old parks, schoolyards and home-sites around the South Dallas area where I grew up and have recently moved back to. Need help deciding on make and model that best suits my needs, any ideas? Looking in the $300 to $400 price range...
Any good DFW area detector shops around?
Thanks for any info....
