Let me refrase the question

Most all PI detectors are designed to be "hot" on small gold items. So that silver and copper coins will not airtest as well as a nickle or gold ring. That I understand. It's the design of the unit and the goal of the designer. Bare with me now... If the target I'm hunting for is something larger and iron, I will want a PI with design strengths for larger items and iron. I'm not interested in a design that excells in the small, silver, gold, copper or nickle items. I'll also want a 12-18 inch coil and the circuitry to again be "hot" on larger iron. So that being said what are my options? What can I use that is currently being manufactured? Can a Deepstar be modified(electrically,physically) in any way other than larger coil size or readjusting knobs to find deep, quart size iron containers? Remember I'm not a electrical wiz and I keep getting the same answers to my lame questions. Specificly I want to know is if I was to build from scratch a deep seeking Iron finding PI, how would it differ from the current design of let's say the Deepstar or Headhunter PI? Was there and is there a deep seeking iron finding PI currently on the market? What about past and present detectors. Thanks guys for all your patience.
 
Yes I especially want to loose sensitivity to anything small, coin size objects and nails. I'm trying to duplicate what a a two box can do but with a PI. Thanks again.

Hi John,
Scroll down to a post of the above name by Thomas Breuer on 29th March. There you may find some relevant info.
