Hello to all
I always wanted to have and test this model with the hip-mount version but I'm new to the electronic workings and parts.Since I mainly have worked on the older Garrett ADS and Bounty Hunters
Red Baron models.I was surprised at how advance the electronics are
for the age of the detector 80's.They have so many I.C's with very few
transistors.They have two circuit boards and the small one is double
sided with clear silicon covered and that makes it a nightmare to test
or desolder to replace the I.C's.The one I'm testing the GEB Normal and Max work really good picking up tiny 1/2 gram of Gold with very
powerful response at 5 to six inches air test and at the same time Ground balancing really bad black mineralized soil and does not blank the small tiny nugget.But in the GEB/DIS does not work and the VDI does not show or meter does not deflect to Gold or silver or a nail.Can anyone that knows the model or has worked on them
give me an idea to cut down the areas or components.What I.C's might be the ones to test.Or a schematic with voltage test points
or anything that will get this going properly.By the way this model
has the four battery pack incredible only six volts,compared to the
older or previous models with two packs 12 volts and 9 volts.
Thanks to any comments or knowledge attachment is the unit I have working on it at this time.
