first impressions of the new hf eliptical coil unmasking, depth, ground notch

[calabash digger]

My new coil came today and I took it to the 1817 home site. The coil was able to unmask some targets in areas where I had pounded with the nine inch coil. It was all junk but it showed it will unmask very well, I ran it in 28 kh and it made the site come alive. When I got home I took it to the test garden and put it on the merc dime in iron and it pulled it out great. I then tested it on the deep targets it will hit a 9 1/2 inch merc ,10 inch silver quarter, 12 inch silver half, and a 8 inch flat button. The coil is deep and is VERY stable in my garden and emi is always a issue with the old coils . I am very impressed to say the least. One more thing I put the coil over the 10 inch quarter and was hitting it in 14 kh and engaged the ground notch and it disappeared , it would not hit the quarter in 28 kh but would hit the 12 inch silver half. The coil does like to false on the tips of square nails but I need to spend some time with it to get a feel for its audio and will try it with version 3 filters too. I will have videos up in a few days of it doing these things.

could it be that ground notch works better with LF coils verses HF coils? isn't HF coils supposed to be good for dealing better with mineralization. I think it would be good to do the tests with identical settings and both coils to see it that is the case.
