I got the 8" minelab coil for the Quattro today, I couldnt believe the way the dealer shipped it, I also oedered an extra lower rod and believe it or not he cut a hole in the corner of the box and stuck the lower rod in the hole leaving about 8" sticking out of the hole, at first I thought UPS had damaged the box but the box was too small for the rod to fit in. I have never seen anything shipped like this before, im surprised that UPS accepted it. I tested the coil in my test garden and couldnt believe the depth. I could detect and properly ID a silver half dollar at slightly over 10". If it doesnt rain tomorrow I am going to try the 8" coil at a civil war era house that I have been hunting, the yard is quite trashy hopefully the small coil will help with trash seperation. HH
