Since FTP offers these two brands, and I guess we could include Bounty Hunter as well. I'm curious what your favorite models are and for which applications? Also do you have a favorite search coil preference for each model?

I've owned a number of different models from both brands and have had my favorites at different times. Them, for various reasons I'd let some go and a few I missed. Doing this multi model evaluation has given me a chance to reacquire 1 favorite as well as work with another that I'm pretty sure I'm going to retain as one of my Daily-Use Team detectors.

On some forums, and quite often I see it associated with certain regions of the US, there can be be strong support for one particular brand or two. So it made me curious how about the number of people or region or particular use have those that favor different brands.

Thanks for posting your replies here.
