What size coil was on the Chaser ?

Looks like the 9 inch coil.

dan h , the Chaser looks to be an impressive machine. How do you like yours ?

I've seen a few vids on it, looks good, but is the audio modulated, as in the air tests vids it seems to be all or nothing?

I have less than 2 hours on it so have just started the learning curve. Looks good so far. The manual is in "fractured" English so there won't be the assistance a well-written manual would provide. Based on my limited experience I think it will be an excellent detector. If I can reach the depths shown in the various videos, it may truly turn your old sites into new ones, to use the expression I've seen in advertisements for other detectors.

I have less than 2 hours on it but my impression is that weak signals produce a brief, clipped sound, rather than a broad but weak sound. But, this impression is subject to revision as I try different settings.
