Can we talk about the $80 toner probe I bought before I learned to just listen for the hum

Bought a fancy tone generator and probe set from the supply house in Mesa back in March and used it twice before an old head showed me how to find a buried drop with a phone butt set and some patience. $80 and a Saturday afternoon gone. Does anyone actually still use toner for coax runs or am I just doing it wrong?
