    Underwater Metal Detectors

    Well some time has past, and I still have faith in the Fisher Pulse 8 X. I still use only the meter. No audio of any kind. This makes you concentrate better, in my opinion. I ahve other reasons, but when I'm on the bottom this works best for me. I have recovered many coins and artifacts...

    Dema show???

    Scubafanatic has it pretty well nailed. I am old and remember when this was a Great Country. The blame is on the career politicans who have taken all the best for themselves, and sent the U.S.A. into a downhill spiral. They really believe the laws do not apply to them. Both political parties...

Over the years I have had booth space at DEMA, Worked for Diveshops in their booths some years, and walked through at other shows, but it just ain't what it used to be. I live in Florida, and I don't think I...

    Underwater Metal Detectors

    I am poor. Being good with a metal detector dosen't mean being smart about money. In 1980 I paid $4,000.00 cash for a metal detector a friend of mine made in his garage. People told me I was crazy. They were right, but I bought it anyway. First dive with it I brought back 175 coins. All 8 Real...

    Underwater Metal Detectors

    I'm poor also. It just depends on what type of hunting you do the most. Beach or dive. The Pulse 8X works for both, but being a pulse it hits on the smallest of targets. I spent 15 minutes once tracking down a piece of rusty fish hook. That says a lot in more ways than one. I have recovered a...

    Underwater Metal Detectors

    One reason I like the Pulse 8X is because of the meter. I don't use any type audio. No head phones, no bone phone. I concentrate just on the meter, and how far I move the head each pass. I have see people looking around while using headphones. They believe they are not missing anything because...

    Underwater Metal Detectors

    All metal detectors have something going for them or they wouldn't be in business. After using many, many of them over the last 35 yeats, and giving instruction on their use in Dive Shops, Seminars at DEMA, and other shows my choice is the Fisher Pulse 8X. I have many reasons for this, and many...
