Hey DB,
Well if ya ever make it down to Wellington way, I have a F75 SE/Ltd.
Still getting to know it. Its a bit of a wild ride for me to learn but am getting there. Picks up EMI like nothing else I have tried but then it is more sensitive to deeper targets than my At-Pro. Digging down 10"++ to get a 1c coin, hmmmm :)
To be fair to the At-Pro I have only used it on sensitivity just above 50%. Maybe I should wind the AT up and see what happens as well. lol

Good luck mate

Hi there,

Perhaps a little far down the track now, but I live in Auckland and the Fisher F75 SE.

Was having problems finding the time to get out, however over the last two nights I have headed out to beaches in the North Shore. It's working out quiet well keeping the wife happy, because the little ones are asleep so no one misses me. ;).

Met 'Littlespec' on both nights, completely unplanned - he's given me some mighty handy advice (and also a hunger to buy a waterproof detector to accompany the F75). Would be great to meet others in the area!

Cheers,
Olly
