    pinpointing with the 3 KHz Minelab coil

    I tried out the new coil yesterday, and I could use some advise from the group. I was in a area fairly clear of trash, but with a small amount of soda and beer cans. It showed on a penny at 2 inches. The pinpoint was right on with the penny, and the other coins 2 inches or less deep. It also...

    Pinpoint trouble with my X-70

    My X-70 has been giving me trouble as of late. After I find a target in any mode & I hit the pinpoint button, I immediately get a loud steady tone. It doesn't matter where the coil is held, either a foot away from the target or 6 feet away. No matter what I do at this point the tone does not...
