[meteorite-list] - Fisher Gold Bug owners?

[Linton Rohr]

Thank you, Erik.
Based on that, I'll try to find myself a Gold Bug II,
but if I come across a good deal on the original model,
that might be fine to get started with.

The second version has a substantially higher frequency so it's really hot 
on metal.
John Wolfe's can pick up some gold basin L's and Palo Verde Mine L's that a 
GMT can't.
He showed me some very nice specimen gold too.

With my Dad's Gold Bug Origional, I have found bird shot 8 inches deep, as 
loud as a wistle.
Either one is good on meteorites but I would sugest paying for the version 
two.
