FREQ - 5.8kHz / GB - FIXED / BATTS - 8 x AA / METER - NO / TONE
ID - NO / COILS - 8" C/10.5" C/5" C.
An older model now. Famed in it's day for it's depth, but struggled
with iron. Occasionally seen second-hand.

ID - NO / COILS - 8" C/10.5" C/5" C.
Still obtainable, despite the changes at Fisher. Light, easy to
use machine with good depth for the price. Nice starter detector
or backup machine.

FREQ - 5.5kHz / GB - FIXED / BATTS - 2 x PP3 / METER - NO / TONE
ID - NO / COILS - 8" C/10.5" C/5" C.
Still quite a popular detector, quite good at seeing through iron
trash. Light and easy to use.

FREQ - 8.2kHz / GB - MANUAL /BATTS - 2 x PP3 / METER - NO / TONE
ID - NO / COILS - 8" C/10.5" C/5" C.
A model that has vanished with the changes at Fisher, occasionally
seen second-hand. A useful machine with
decent iron "see-through" ability.

PP3 / METER - YES - ANALOG / TONE ID - YES - 4 / COILS - 8" C/10.5"C

A powerful detector, optimised for searching out
old coins. Now hard to get hold of, occasionally seen second-hand.
Has problems with iron though.

PP3 / METER - YES - DIGITAL / TONE ID - YES - 4 / COILS - 8" C/10.5" C/12" C/5" C.
Similar depth to the 3D, without the tone optimisation.
Good general use machine. Very difficult to get hold of now.

A nice little machine to use - light and easy to
use - little brother of the ID Edge. Now only seen second-hand.

FREQ - 7kHz ? / GB - AUTO & TRACKING / BATTS
- 2 x PP3 / METER - YES - DIGITAL / TONE ID - YES - 4 / COILS -
5" C/8" C/10.5"C.
A powerful and deep detector. Now hard to obtain.
Rather steep learning curve with this one, the unusual threshold/sensitivity
combination foxed many people, but in expert hands this is an excellent
machine. Target id numbers were a little erratic.

FREQ - 6.25kHz / GB - AUTO / BATTS - 2 x PP3 / METER

An easy to use, deep detector. Fisher had learnt
from their experiences with the Coinstrike when they brought this
one out. Unfortunately, now disappeared due to the changes at Fisher,
occasionally seen second-hand and ex-demo. Accessory coils can be
hard to obtain, especially in the UK. One of the best kept secrets
out there - will easily rival the Explorer and F75 for depth. Well
worth looking out for.

FREQ - 13kHz / GB - AUTO & MANUAL / BATTS - 4 x AA /

7 biaxial DD.
A deep and powerful detector, with
ultra-fast response, making it
excellent for arable land,
particularly where there is lots of iron. Steepish learning curve, good iron
discrim and capable of pulling out the finds that others have missed.
More coil choices would be nice.

Excellent starter machine and a
great backup. Easy to use and set up, good choice of coils. Light
and well balanced. Can't go wrong for £280.

Decent starter machine. Build
quality a little lacking, but can't really complain for the price.
Good recovery speed.
