    Could this have been affecting my gt coil????

    A while back I drilled out the rivets on the meter mount on the shaft of my gt....Today when I took it apart for cleaning a piece of rivet the size of 2 bb's came out of the lower shaft.... The last couple weeks I have been having to run my sens lower to settle it down.... I'm guessing a piece...

    Which stavr scoop????

    Which stavr scoop do you have, and can you tell me the +'s and -'s of them.... I have had an rtg 6" scoop and it was great in the dry-wet sand but was not well draining in the water... I now have a stealth but the straight handle(90 degree) is useless in the water...And the non-round design...

    I think my excal is getting water in the battery...

    Unplugged the battery to charge it after a hunt and the rubber gasket was all wet around the contacts....... Should I be putting a coat of silicone lube on it each time I put it back together??? Maybe there was water in the screw on connector when I took it apart... Had no problems with it...
