    Coil question for the MXT experts ??

    That's the little sweetheart I used it a lot in "worked out" sites. The 10x12 was my go-to coil for everything else. (y)

    Hi. Does anyone know what this is?

    Coil question for the MXT experts ??

    I am not familiar with anything White's for the last 10 years since I moved to the Minelab line but with coils, it is a constant trade-off when changing size. A 10 inch coil gives you two more inches in your search pattern vs. 8 inches but your search width goes from 6 inches to 5 which will...

    Coil question for the MXT experts ??

    I'm no expert but I agree with woodbutcher 100%. I used two coils the last several years of Whites detectors hunting, the 10X12 for general coverage sampling and cladding and the 6X8 for serious hunting.

    Meter trouble with vintage White's 6000/di series 3

    Welcome to the Finds forums Stosh00 and hats off for Carl's input. Carl is more often 100% right than 1% wrong IMHO. :rofl: Since you are new on here, you might not know Carl was the engineering brains for Whites before going to Garretts where I lost contact with him. He may still be there for...

    Scabbard?

    That is what it looks like to me. Be careful with it. Looks like it could crumble with the slightest bump.

    Received my "new" DFX, like listening to an old friend

    Oh, the BIGFOOT........... coin magnets we called them. We covered schoolyards in a fraction of time that a standard coil took us with our pockets full :) When we started slowing down due to health and age, we sold them for a handsome profit, $350 each if I remember right and that has been...

    Badger me

    Congrats Steve, it's a beauty.

    Need some advice

    A bad search coil is a key suspect but it could be something internal. If you can find another coil to try, that would be a good first step.

    Coming Home

    Welcome back Steve. I understand 100% with the good ole days. We reminisce more often than actually go hunting ourselves. Nancy and I used to go out for a day of hunting and come home with $50 to $60 in dirty pocket change plus some bling and silver. Now days, we might last an hour o_O but the...

    Need advice on a DD coil for MXT

    V rated means the coil has been nulled for all three frequencies of the V series. They work just as good on the single frequency MXT and dual frequency DFX.

    Need advice on a DD coil for MXT

    I have to agree with coinspader. The stock D2 is a great coil for most hunting and in high trash areas the SEF 6X8 was always my go to.

    White's Spectra V3i cherry picking gold rings.

    I totally agree with your findings on deep targets. Anything over 7 inches, for me anyway, the numbers mean very little to me. If the target is deep and sounds good and repeatable in all directions, I dig. You never know what is down there. Not always valuable, but often interesting.
