Default Just purchased a F75 what should I expect

I am now the proud owner of a Fisher F75. My wife bought me one from Kellyco for my birthday. I have seen and read how nice they were and just had to have one. How many of you out there own one? Tell me how much better it will be over my Garrett Ace 250. I know it has more features and more settings. I can not wait to get it in.

Congrats on the B-day gift... I'm still learning my Ace 250 here, but I see a newer model maybe soon. Enjoy and Happy future hunts...!

Default You better give your wife a big kiss!

While the 250 is a great detector for the money, it in no way compares to the F75. It will take a little longer to get used to than the 250 but once you do you will go back over those places that you used the 250 and find all the stuff the 250 missed. Stick with the default settings for awhile. If you have a test garden it will serve you well. Check out Tom Dankowskis' forum if you want some real good info.
