I had noticed with my last couple of hunts that the steel studs on my winter ice climbing cleats interfered with my coil, in that it would beep at times giving the impression that the coil was falsing. I adjusted my coil swings so that it was out another foot, making it to about two feet from my toes before I actually got zero interference from the coil. So, if you are wearing shoes/boots with steel eyelets, steel shanks in the boot or steel toes, expect to get interference from your feet. It would probably be wise to run the coil over your shoes to see if in fact there are any pieces of metal in them.
