I just received my new Minelab SE PRO from NED and I am pumped! I have used the old SE off and on for some time and this is my first experience with the new Pro Coil. Being out of the cutting edge of the hobby for a bit my first experience with the DD coils was with an ACE 350 that I tried some time ago (loved the DD tech) and quickly traded away (not a bad backup relic machine just not for me). So, my question is as follows: When air testing this machine last night I noticed that at appx 5" of depth and less the coil was picking up the coin at the the far right/left edge of the coil and continually detecting until it reached the extreme opposite end of the coil with the loudest detection happening at the center where one would expect. I may be wrong but it seemed the ACE DD only detected the coin along the narrow beam in the center of the coil. Is this normal for that wide a detection area on the DD? Seems problematic.
Thanks guys!
