"Gary's UK Makro Racer Review"
At first I was not over impressed by the Makro Racer, for some reason it just
didn't excite me, perhaps I was expecting it to perform way beyond my Fors Core,
or the anticipation of someone mastering the dark art of cordless blue tooth
headphones. I decided to go out and test the machine straight out of the box, as
you will see in video 1 the Makro Racer had no changes made, only to the gain.
Within a very short time the Racer rewarded me with a Roman coin, but there was
still no bond there, it didn't react how I wanted neither did it sound how I
wanted, although the performance could not be faulted.

My second time out with the Makro Racer the relationship started to
flourish....I started to bond with the machine, by adjusting the gain I quickly
realised I could make the signal much kinder on the ears and give a much better
perception of depth, which is something I insist on with every metal detector
that I keep. You will see in video number 2 how flexible the Racer is and by
making small changes to the features makes a big change to your overall
detecting experience.

I wanted to see how fast the recovery speed was and how it could deal with
targets amongst iron, in video number 3 you can see for yourselves how
responsive it is on a bad area, and has the ability to pick out small targets
amongst iron, especially when lowering the ID filter and Gain.

In video number 4 you can see and hear the machine in action, OK no great
targets were found but just look at the depth and hear the signal clarity, at
the end I give my full summary and honest opinion after 2 outings with the Makro
Racer.

Now I am going to pass this metal detector on to other members of my team to
review so stay tuned for more Makro Racer information
.Important notice beware of
scammers
Manufacturers beware !!! we have had reports of individuals using the Gary's
detecting name and asking manufacturers for free machines to test, these people
