Do the Ace series coils work on the GTP 1350?

I'm just wondering if anyone has tried the Ace series coils on the GTP or Gtax series detectors. If so do they work properly. I know the SEF coil is supposed to work on any of these machines.

Thanks,

They will not. A coil has to be tuned to a detector's operating frequency for maximum operation. If you hook it up, it will probanly beep, however the disc. ID will be off as well as the depth.

I've switched mine around and they all work just fine, for the GTP and GTAx series over to the Ace series and vice versa. The slight freq. difference doesn't hamper them at all. Just think about the fact that the AT Gold and AT Pro can use the same coils and they are 3 khz apart in freq. The Ace series and GTAx and GTP are less that 1/2 khz apart in freq. I've even put a 7 x 10 Proformance coil on my old ragged Freedom Ace Plus and it hummed right along, actually worked better that the old Crossfire and Crossfire II coils. JMHO and what I've experienced.

I was hoping they would work. I know on those new Tek machines they all use the same coils and they have a huge difference in khz.

HH,

Yeah, I use that Ace 10"x14" DD Excelerator and 6"x8" SEF on my GTAx1250 which is the exact same machine as the GTP1350 minus the profiling feature.
I've also used my wife's ACE 250 with the old round Crossfire 2 search coil ( 8.5" ) and it works great. The TID might be off by a notch depending upon your ground conditions.
I don't mind 'cause I just dig anything that's not iron. At least that's my plan.Happy Hunting!
