[QUOTE="Goldpick, post: 63529, member: 1695"] It seems the Vaquero has an option of preset hi or lo tones, not multi tones as mentioned. Once mastered, it is possible to weed out certain target based on how the tone comes across, and in combination of usjng the discrimination - usually sharp or smooth tones depending on the metal type. It's a bit of a dying art learning the variance of the tone on a single tone detector, now with all the multitone machines on the market. You can set the discrimination to weed out most junk, I found it a very good coin machine, though its only downfall was that it wasn't really suited to the beach, the ground balance didn't have enough range to be effective. Anyway, it's a $600+ machine here in Australia, so not really classed as a cheap nor beginner detector, as with the G2. :) [/QUOTE]
