F5 With 11 inch Coil-WOW!

RLOH

Well-known member
I have been using my F5 with the 11 inch dd coil for a couple of weeks now and the more I use it, the more impressed I am. Today I went to a school built in 1958 and has not been detected much at all. I found several silver dimes and some wheats a couple of weeks back, but I have not been able to get back because of weather and the fields being in use. I got a great day today and I got to tired because I dug too many coins. This had not happened in a long while and it reminds me of the "old days". You just don't find too many spots like this anymore. Long story short, I dug four coins today that were extremely deep. These coins were 8 to 9 inches deep! One silver roosie, one wheat, one silver quarter, and one 1965 clad quarter. I ended up with another silver dime and three more wheats. Funny thing about the other dime and two of the wheats. They were only 3 to 4 inches deep. The ground phase was only 56 so I hunted with the gain at 75 and threshold at +1. Being able to get these two setting in this range seems to be the ticket for digging deep coins. This is one sweet setup. When I dumped my trash pouch, it only had 7 or 8 pieces of junk in it. With that said, the F5 with the big dd coil is a great setup. R.L.

RLOH,
Good to see that 11"DD is working for you. Have you tried the 5" dd? If it is as good on the F5 as it is on the F75, you would have a real winning combination of coils for the F5. For real trashy areas I use the 5"dd exclusively on my f75. I plan on getting an f5 as soon as I can swing it.

Good report, RL. I really like hearing how you are using the other features of the F5 (in this case the ground phase) to set up your machine.
