    I Have A Question

    5x8 is a really good coil. They have a 6x9 concentric that I had never used. I had a 9x12 concentric but it had marginal depth gain, was noticeably heavier than the stock coil and didn't unmask like the Tesoro concentrics. The 6x9 concentric might be better in iron than the larger one. Ground...

    I Have A Question

    Don't necessarily need a large coil but something that can navigate the trash. Targets may not be all that deep because the ground is usually packed along trails. Found this just on an edge of a hiking/biking trail that gets daily traffic and has had it's share of detectorists hitting the area...

    Which is the better coil

    Have just recieved my Viper coil for the AT Pro. Initial testing is it is about the same depth as the stock coil. Has better separation. Seems to handle ground mineralization better as it has a smaller foot print. Slightly less sensitive to tiny targets ie earrings. Can be a little more emi...

    Which is the better coil

    There is a focal point on coils where the machines frequency ends. After that point the frequency will drop off causing phase shift location of targets to drop in particular the mid to high conductors while the low conductors such as iron drop less. High frequencys respond stronger to low...

    Which is the better coil

    Earth worm activity is approx 10" and less. They are the leading contributor to targets sinking inland. If you dig to the clay line it is often less than a foot down and clay is too packed for targets to sink below that. Having run a Nel big that has some substantial depth it has rarely found...

    Which is the better coil

    Small sniper coil is good for very trashy parks where your planning on coin shooting for shallow fresh drops. 5x8 and 6x11 viper offer better separation over the stock coil and can work well in moderate trashy areas but have an advantage of more depth over the stock coil. Ground with higher...

    I Have A Question

    Look for spots along the paths where people may take a rest or where there may be a good view. More trash means more people were there.

    AT Max price

    I have an AT Pro, thought of selling it but end of the day it is worth more as a backup machine do to it's reliability than what I would get for it selling. Also great machine to hand to a newcomer as it is easy to run.

    Sea Hunter Threshold Tone

    I use the SH quite a bit. If you are using the hip mount then movement of the coil cable can fluctuate the threshold. I use the 10x14 coil for beach combing and it is very sensitive so much so that I need to drag my scoop well behind me as it will start to pick up on it making the threshold rise...
