In The Corner With Dan Hughes

Suggestions on how to choose a first detector for your (or somebody elses) child.  Get a cheapie?  A top-of-the-line?  Something in between?  What about weight, and buttons and dials and knobs and meters?  As you might guess from the photo, I think you should take a good look at the Tesoro Compadre.  One thing I forgot to mention in the program - Tesoro is the only company that gives a lifetime warranty on all their detectors (no, they don't pay me).  I also offer a quickie little exercise you can do with your child to help him (her) learn to use his (her) new machine efficiently.
