    Ok.....I need suggestions on coils

    I have a stock coil on my GTI 1500. Is there a coil recombination for sites that have a lot trash in the ground. I went to a river front park today and my detector couldn't lock on anything. Ended up leaving empty handed. I know the smaller coils will work, but no imaging. So my question is...

    Went out with my brand new PP........

    I just could not believe how good it is. Recovering coins are a breeze, smaller plugs and some coins I didn't need to dig....just used a screwdriver. Too bad all I found was about 3 dollars in clad, although I found a Canadian Dime which looked like silver but I can't see a date on it...

    Digging in hard gravel

    I am a newbie to this and it might be a stupid question but..........When digging in gravel....is there an easier way to retrieve a target or is it just pure patience to get it dug out? Lately I've been ignoring targets in gravel because they are so hard to retrieve and sometime get "ghost...

    Soil moisture changes detector characteritics?

    Yesterday i went to a local park and dug a handful of coins. Today I went back to the same park and my detector (GTI 1500) acted differently. Seems like it wasn't as senstive as the day before. My question is ....Does soil mositure change the detectors sensitivity?
