| 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.
