Tiger Shark
The Tiger Shark uses
microprocessor technology to create a true dual function
machine. In Normal Mode, the Tiger Shark works like any
other Tesoro detector. It uses the same great ground
balance and discrimination features that made the
Bandido series so successful. On land, the Tiger Shark
can be used for coin and relic hunting and even gold
prospecting. By using the four controls on the outside,
you can fine tune your detector to handle whatever
conditions you are working in.
Working in the wet salt
areas is where the Tiger Shark outshines the land
detectors. In land conditions, the most crucial
adjustment is using the ground balance to tune out
mineralization. In wet salt conditions, changes in the
conductivity in the sand cause most of the problems. The
Tiger Shark uses a completely different set of internal
settings in the SALT Mode than in the NORM Mode. There
are no special controls or techniques to remember.
The Tiger Shark
continues in the tradition of other great Tesoro
underwater machines by having interchangeable coils
available. Along with the 8" coil that comes standard
with the detector, we also manufacture a 7" and a 10
1/2" coil.
