    CTX 3030 13" Coil

    Any word of a 13" coil in the makings? Seems that might would be my go to if they were on the market. Sacrificing a "little" separation in high iron areas and providing a depth advantage seems pretty enticing to me. What are your thoughts?

    The Right Shovel

    Okay, yesterday I got out detecting and broke my shovel for the third time. Yes a third time. It is a Fiskars "Worlds Greatest Shovel" D Handle. I thought this shovel was invincible, but apparently it has been proven wrong three times. The first time I broke it near the shovel head, I had it...
