Hi Guys
My wife and I have been using the CTX machines since it's release, with great success. However lately her machine started sounding off at the end of each swing, but only when the coil would get wet. Soon
after mine started doing the same thing. We could lower the sens down to around 21-22 and it would get better. Though we both usually run our sens around 27-30 with no problems. So I decided to try something, I sprayed my machines coil
with truck bed liner. Bam! instant fix, no more sounding off when wet and I can still hit tiny targets plenty deep. So I sprayed her coil and got the same excellent results. Then after about 30 or 40 hours use on each machine, the problem has returned. I've inspected both coils and the spray on bed liner is fully intact. Not even any scuffs. I just feel like the CTX becomes super sensitive to salt for some reason I can't explain. My next trick will be to coat the coils with a 2 part marine epoxy. Maybe something thicker will help.
Has anybody else seen similar activity with their machines?
Thank You!
Ken
