Nice setup, one question___why so much coil wire, especially since it doesn't look like you would hip mount? Don

Thanks Don
I don't know about the coil wire length, you will have to ask Reg that question he built the coil maybe he will jump in and explain. I can hip mount the unit and just use the probe in the bedrock cracks where one can't get the coil into.The probe is very powerful with Eric's GQ machine,its a super setup I think. <img src="/metal/html/smile.gif" border=0 width=15 height=15 alt="

Reg probably left it long for that purpose, from what I could see of picture, thought maybe you wouldn't be hip mounting. Yes, the probe is very good, I have one on a Goldscan. HH....Don

Hi Don and Buzz,
Reg uses a twin coax with a figure 8 cross section, so it looks as though there are twice as many turns round the shaft as there really are.

Hi Eric
I noticed the extra wire on all the detectors be it Pulse or VLF is there a special reason for the extra wire besides for the hipmount applications?

Hi Buzz,
I use a standard length of wire that is determined more by the ability to separate the lower rod from the upper without disconnecting the connector. Sometimes, it works better to remove the lower rod from the upper rod when packing several coils or just using a more compact carrying bag. In this case, I can simply slide the lower rod out and then pack things. If the wire is much shorter, then I have to always disconnect the connector.
So, I have simply determined the logical length of cord that allows me to meet my objective. This wire could be shortened, depending upon the height of the operator and a different lower rod length is used. However, I seldom make coils for other people so I simply make all to fit my needs. That way, if something changes, I have a coil I can use.

Hi Reg
My question was a generalized question about the wires on most detectors as far as your job goes on my coil you made, it is a super job and I can't thank you enough for making it for me as I know you
took time out of you busy schedule Reg <img src="/metal/html/smile.gif" border=0 width=15 height=15 alt=""> <img src="/metal/html/smile.gif" border=0 width=15 height=15 alt="">
I was just wondering about why most detector have so much extra wire on them in general.
