    Simply show us the air test you said you did. Rocks In My Head

    Does anyone else here air test a quarter at 7 inches with any pinpointer, specifically the Carrot? I would really enjoy seeing it.

    Ok so no actual air test. Again, just digging a detected target and finding a 6" deep quarter has nothing to do with the Carrot. Any pinpointer can show a surprise target at 6 inches, and most of all, junk as well. My lamest PPR can do that. Have a good day!

    So your Carrot won't actually test 6 inches in the standard air test? An air test is one standard in comparing pinpointers, always has been. Not perfect, but a standard. Your Carrot is lame against many other PPRs. I own half a dozen. The F-Pulse and TRX beats it in detection distance hands...

    "It's sad you can only find a quarter at 2.5" I find lots deep quarters all of the time, pre dug, but I have never air tested a quarter, in an isolated environment, or ever gotten any more range than 2.5-3 inches at best, IN A CONTROLLED AIR TEST ENVIRONMENT. Do an air test and show me you...

    Why would you ever air test near a large metallic object at all? My car will detect at feet if I get anywhere near. An air test on a pinpointer has to be reasonably isolated. Why diid you call my post "That's so sad" in a later post when I said I never have seen an air test on a Carrot hit 6...

    Send me just one Utube air test link showing a Carrot detecting a quarter at 6 inches. Even 4 inches.

    Did you do air tests to prove this 6" range? After the dig? I am skeptical.

    Keep that Carrot, if it sees a quarter at 6 inches, seriously. I never saw a Garretts Carrot hit even nickels more that 3 inches. Nickels are tops. Quarters were "maybe" 2 1/2 inches at best, and I mean BEST.

    slight issue with coil on manticore

    Simply do just that! You own a $1600 machine. Get Minelab to make it right.

    Did it do this when you first got it?

    slight issue with coil on manticore

    It is disappointing that no other Manticore owners joined in this discussion at all concerning the air test.

    slight issue with coil on manticore

    Without anybody else here posting that they get your results, I call it a bad coil. I'd never trust the Manticore until I resolved this issue. Parts are way expensive.

    slight issue with coil on manticore

    That was an air test I did, the detector laying across my bed and hand waving the quarter. Maybe others here will test their Manticore coil.

    slight issue with coil on manticore

    Is it the same when you turn 45 degrees and swing? This machine is a gift in actual pinpointing. Strange. I just tested mine and the quarter is detected in center just fine.

    slight issue with coil on manticore

    Does it still do that when you turn 90 degrees?

    Why would I want to buy an old Explorer these days?

    "I don't like no matter how tight I make the shaft clamps. Bumping the coil it swivels sideways. Then I have to keep straightening it." Try extending the mid rod all the way, and then the lower rod to your preference. I had that problem and it fixed mine. It has to be the smaller lower rod...
