Gat, I wonder if I can ask some advice, I just traded a fellow for a Garret Scorpion Stinger and I seem to have a little difficulty keeping it tuned. I talked with Garret and Mary there, said to keep the retune button pushed when you tune it, that helped a little. You have any suggestions? :)

sgolsen,
With the Scorpion, you need to push the retune button every time the detector be-
comes unstable. The retune button brings the detector back to your original set-
tings that you set it at,
Remember to switch to Manual when you operate in All Metal & Auto when you
operate in Motion Disc. (works better that way)
The Scorpion is a very versatile detector and I have found a lot of coins, relics
and gold nuggets with mine, especially if you use the small 5" X 7" coil.

Let me know if you have any more questions, be happy to help you out.

Hi Ken,

Im looking at buying the scorpion gold stinger, and would love to learn about it allittle more. and was wondering if you/ or anybody else could tell me about the pro/cons/ and the best settings for looking for fine gold for this metal detector? im also thinking about the gb2. But more leaning to the Garret though.

Thanks,
Kalen
