It's Tejón Time
We are very proud to
introduce the Tejón. It features a high output transmit
oscillator to push the signal deeper and an increased
gain for sensitivity to smaller items. The Tejón was
designed from the ground up with the coin and relic
hunter in mind. It also features a new color scheme from
Tesoro- blue, gray and black. The Tejón was over a year
and a half in the design stages and represents a new
generation of Tesoro detectors.
Once you get past the
new color scheme, the first thing that you will notice
is the lack of a mode switch on the faceplate. We have
moved it beneath the control housing so that you are
able to switch modes quickly. Pinpointing and checking
your targets with the Alternate Discrimination is a
breeze.
The Tejón’s two
discriminate modes are fully user definable. The
engineers at Tesoro have given the user the ability to
set the machine for their hunting needs. Each
discriminate mode uses ED180 circuitry. The regular
discriminate also incorporates a full-time all metal
setting. Want to hunt in all metal and check the targets
for iron or discriminate out iron and perform a check
for high value silver or gold targets? It’s no problem
for the Tejón. Simply set the Discriminate and Alternate
Discriminate modes for your style of hunting and swing
the coil. Then use the Trigger Switch to quickly change
modes to check your targets. Push the trigger forward to
activate the Alternate Discriminate or pull the trigger
back to pinpoint the target. The Tejón makes it fast and
easy.
But the user definable
features do not stop there. The Tejón has a manually
adjustable ground balance that works for both the All
Metal mode and both Discriminate modes. Using a three
and three quarter potentiometer, the Tejón will meet and
defeat all soil conditions and is suitable for any
hunting style.
The Tejón also has an
audio tone adjust. If you have trouble hearing certain
tones or have certain tones that you are more
comfortable with, the Tejón can meet you desires. Using
the tone adjustment control, you can switch from a
normal tone with VCO pinpoint/all metal to any one of
thousands of different audio tones for the All Metal and
Discriminate modes. Fine tune the tone until it is right
for you and see how much easier it is to find, pinpoint
and dig the targets that you are looking for.
While the Tesoro Tejón
was designed mostly for coin and relic hunters, its user
definable controls are simple and easy to use making it
able to handle just about any type of treasure hunting
that you may wish to try.
