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.
