10x12 widescan on umax detectors

Love mine when I use it mounted on my Vaq.
Nothing better for covering large areas and gives me confidence I am not missing much.
Many love the clean sweep coil on their Tesoros, also covers ground in a big way but the depth with the widescan is a little deeper.
With the speed of the Tesoros that widescan works well...I was literally running through a large field one time swinging that coil way too fast looking for one last Hail Mary signal before I left.
So fast it looked like I was a hockey player moving down the ice with a wide open field on a fast break...you would have laughed if you saw me.
You know what, it worked.
Picked up a hint of a signal, stopped and went back and opened a hole and dug a tab and a nice 14k wedding ring out of the same hole.
That one ring paid for my coil and then some.
I do not like the fact that high end pop tops now sound like dimes and quarters and most no longer disc out or break up at the end of the signal like on a concentric, but that is the nature of the beast when using most DD coils on just about any detector.

I used it on the Outlaw a few times. I did not get much, if any, more depth in my soil-- which is very mild -- and it was a bit more difficult to pinpoint compared to the 8 inch donut (which is spot on). Still, it was nice to have when covering large areas, so much so that I kept it for my Silver uMax when I traded my Outlaw.
