How do you like it. I must be the only one hunting with it. I really do like :detecting: with the coil. Later ya'll Jerry aka Tinfoil
 
Hey Tinfoil...one of my customers bought the 5" x 10" DD, 18.75kHz, and just loves it. Check out the post today entitled "Another X-Terra 70 Success Story". He also has used it nugget hunting and is delighted.
 
has anything to say about the coil. Ya'll don't know what you are missing. Maybe that is a good sign so I get to :detecting: it all. I know that 5X10 18.75DD is not going to come off my X70 for a long time. All though that 9" 7.5 concentric ain't bad. The 5x10 DD hunts great :clapping::super: in the trash too. Later Jerry aka Tinfoil.
 
I tried the wet with no targets at all, tried the top of the wet to dry area for an hour, about $1.50 (all clad) and 3 tokens. Tried along the seawall (reinforced with large rebar) found anothe 50 cents or so. This beach had about 3-4 feet of new sand added in the last 2 weeks, inpreparation for the "summer kickoff" (Memorial Day Weekend). The weather has been cool, so, not a lot of beach goers yet. God, forgive me, for praying for a heat wave! Anyways, I did a lot of experimenting and found a few things to be true: if the ID reads 42-44-46, it was 2 quarters in the same spot 3 out 3 times! If I get a solid 12 in one direction, but a jumpy 12 in another, it was usually a nickle in with other trash. This coil really likes small pieces of aluminum foil (Trojan wrappers, etc) and I dug alot of it just because it might one day be a platinum piece of jewelry. I Did Not like the rusty bottle caps, with a halo, reading 40-42! The clean ones read 26-28 and sounded different too. It pinpoints real easy, just by "X"ing the target and scooping the "X". It makes you dig more trash, but, I still believe I will find more gold chains and smaller gold & platinum pieces than I ever did with my Elite or (now) my GT. I still need to figure out my beach "GB" settings & Sens settings, and, I think Pattern 3 or All Metal (with a Pattern 2 check, and in the Beach mode) with be my normal hunting modes. Right now, I still it like better in parks than my GT, but, I think I am more comfortable with the GT at the beach. I hope to use a couple more times before the holiday weekend is over.
