heriophant Posted February 22, 2008 Report Share Posted February 22, 2008 what do you guys think?? i have a link on a Minelab SD2200 for $1100. Seller states is like new with 2 coils. was produced in 2001 so not sure if its a D or V2 as im not familiar when the changeover occured. he also states he hasnt tweaked it nor has he sent it in to minelab for software updates yet. i havent put y hands on it yet to look at model number as he isnt local, but ill be talking with him later. deal? or no deal?

wes Posted February 22, 2008 Report Share Posted February 22, 2008 What color is it? I think all the Ds were army green and the later Vs are blue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adam Posted February 22, 2008 Report Share Posted February 22, 2008 As far as I know, the difference is the V2 has the blue control box ,and the S bend shaft . The machines I believe are the same other than that. They both auto tune, auto GB, have audio boost,and both discriminate with a DD coil (if you chose to do so).I`m no expert though.....

fredm Posted February 22, 2008 Report Share Posted February 22, 2008 There is no functional difference between the two models....Minelab does not upgrade units...they do install currently available replacement parts when they make repairs. In other words you can't buy a 2200 and have them change it into a 3500 or 4000. If you buy a 2200 you might consider a signal enhancer as the signal strength was a bit weak...fred Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sawmill Posted February 23, 2008 Report Share Posted February 23, 2008 corky That is a SD2200D,We have one and it would be the lastone we would ever sell. It has found more gold than all ofthe others we have combined,including a GPX4000. It may make a little more noise,but once you learn how touse it, it will find gold.
