Fisher 1266 PART 1

[Max]

The bulgarian folks made CoinSeeker cause wanna a reduced circuit, simpler and effective

f#k these bulgarian folks!!! see MASSIVE BUNCHS OF DETECTORS done in ukrainia!!! ... mlia, effective... I am crying

As always.... are they your punching-bag ? I see...

So must I presume the ukraine folks will share some schematic of this mass produced beauty? Right ?

Same as 1266 ??? But why I always read 30cm for 5kopecs ?

Kind regards,
Max

Thank-You Max for posting that GC-1030 Brochure and everyone who posted on this thread !! Maybe we will see all the data on a field test Soon ! You know the Chinese will eventually build that top of the line Detector similar to the explorer or the DFX at a much lower cost , when ? we do not know !! I give the Chinese credit for the improovement over the years on their detectors !!! Now , the second subject which really bothers me !! And I am going to get "some" very negative feedback on this , But I am 100% right on what I am about to say !!! Before I make my comment: Sascho in Bulgaria , Your work is Excellent , I have no complaints about your designs , or anything at all , against Bulgaria !!! But who the heck reverse-engineered and made the schematic of the Minelab Relic Hawk , and why did they invent the coin-seeker pro . I think it is a slap in the face to Metal Detector builders all over !!! I am sorry to make this statement , but it has cost me wasted time and money . Not a big problem , I will finish it later when I find a cheap Relic Hawk for sale , no big deal !!! If someone claims they are an Electronic Technician then act like one , If a reverse-engineered schematic is not correct , then post on the schematic "as a Courtesy" , this schematic may contain errors and may not be complete . Write it on the schematic !!!!! It is called "Honesty"......... Once and a Great while a complaint is posted here on Geotech ....Good complaints are welcome here "occassionally" I hope I recieve some good feedback on this , hopefully not all BAD ??? ...........Take care everyone........Eugene

Hi,
yes... there are probably mistakes there... and, last, the schematic have lot of missed ic labels... so we guessed to find a solution.

I think that the big problem at RH is not only the lack of a perfect schematic from accurate reverse engineering but also that coil required is probably much more complex issue than on other VLFs.

Now... device works at 95% as in schematic: the really big problem is a bad tolerance to iron stuff when at far distance... you can get e.g. a signal from a large nail at 30cm and waste time and efforts trying to dig it like a good target.

The other big problem we have is that no comparision has been made between my version of PCB+coil and others... that stalled even more further development. If you sum with the fact I'm doing other things at now... and have few spare time... you'll see why we are not going ahead on the topic.

The bulgarian folks made CoinSeeker cause wanna a reduced circuit, simpler and effective... but , you know, sometimes, though good intentions, results are not so good.

Kind regards,
Max

Hi All, sorry about the missing field test I just cleared out my website folder for something else and didnt see this post before I did.

Wow , very impressive , AVAILABLE CHRISTMAS 2005 !!!!! I HAVE BEEN ASLEEP for 2.5 years , this is the first time I saw this one , and I check the "Chinese Trade" websites frequently...........Thanks for posting Qiaozhi !! Is this the one that is very similar to Fisher 1266x ?? ..............Eugene

P.S. Everyone read the post right before mine . Field Test PDF

Apparently so. I will shortly be dismantling this detector for back-engineering.

Hi Sean,
I could be interested too in cloning device MD303 (or make mods on a factory made one)... what about say detection of 1eur (on air) on good tuning and what about coil dimensions ?

Kind regards,
Max

Sean made a typo in his post - it's an MD3030, not an MD303.

The coil is a 245mm diameter concentric.

the manual ?

ROFLMAO How true is that!!

No the MD303 is a copy of the 1266 and it will go Deeeeeeeeep if set up properly (not like it comes from the factory). I recently sent one to Qiaozhi for reverse engineering. I suspect he will confirm what I have just said. BTW did you know that Lamebin's are made in China? How long before we see copies of that stuff for sale at less than $150 too?

This schematik is bulgarian variant fisher1266.

Thanks Sean , I did not see Transformer T-1 , fisher number is : IZHODIAST , what a crazy part number . So it looks like they re-designed a new 1266 without the T-1

"IZHODIAST", "IZHODIAST"

Again Bulgarians Which of the bulgarian guys forgot to change this "crazy part number" ?

It performs like a 1266. I can confirm this, as I have a Fisher 1266-XB in my collection. Reverse engineering will start soon...

Thanks Sean , I did not see Transformer T-1 , fisher number is : IZHODIAST , what a crazy part number . So it looks like they re-designed a new 1266 without the T-1 . A very professional schematic and coil data , I wonder if anyone has built it ??? I am still looking for the 1265 schematic and I believe forum Member "Maxbiri " is looking , he may have one . Last note , the 1265 and 1266 were rumored to be almost identical ??? BTW , Sean did you ever test your Minelab 1000 on the "cold beach" over there ???? It is suppose to be a fantastic Machine ?? ........Thank-You...........Eugene

I used the 1265-X schematics to repair my 1266-XB, and they are almost identical.

Sean, this chinese man already goes to you! he carries the bunch of newest freshed deepest detectors 'Especcialy for UK people, Our Great Friends'!
