Title: Hello From Bergvliet
Post by: PeterF on June 26, 2013, 02:12 PM

Hi all,

My father bought a detector from Yebo Electronics last year. I only got around to having a look with it lately. I think it's called a Treasure Seeker? Box has long gone and there is no name on the unit. I Googled it and Clarke in the UK sell it as a MD1500. At present it's been a look around in Tokai forest and two trips to the beach. (Hout Bay is great if you like rusty nails!) :D

So far it's just an excuse to get some fresh air with my daughters but I am deeply concerned that the bug will bite!!

Thanks
Peter

Welcome Peter, you will get the bug, I mainly hit the beaches around Fish Hoek and Simonstown, enjoy.

Good stuff.

Be sure to post your stuff, even if it's junk. I'm easily amused.  :o
