Coil Question

[Cliff KS]

Do coils for digital CZ like the 7a work on the analog CZ3D or CZ5?

Yes, (only the CZ6 had different coil connectors) all CZ are interchangeable otherwise. Of course the waterproof units are hardwired and that complicates things.

That's what I thought, but wanted to make sure.

Thanks!

Cliff,
PT is 100% correct and has given you exact info.

One other thing you may want to watch out for in your coil search, is that a batch of older Fisher coils (including CZs) had bad cable sheathing (the part of the cable you can see) that developed/develops cracks...sometimes all the way from the coil to the connector. Of course, they still work, they're just no longer waterproof or even water resistant.

Just something to watch out for. The ones I've seen seem to start cracking down by the coil strain relief, so inspect there first.
The older cables have a 'rubber' look to them...the new ones tend to be 'shiny'.

Good Luck
