i have a mxt and a dfx,the bigfoot coil works pretty good on my dfx,but i dont think it likes my mxt,maybe im just used to the way it acts on the dfx,any ideals on where i should set my settings would be greatly appreciated.anyone know how deep the bigfoot will go on the mxt?im getting about 5-6 inches,thanks

I have used the Bigfoot coil on my MXT for about 10 months now and I really like it the best of all of my coils. 5 to 6 inches is what I have been getting on maximum depth. Most of my finds, mostly gold and silver jewelry, I find at 1 to 4 inches. The MXT will have a higher pitch on the rear half of the coil when it hits a target. When you hear that sound, just pull back and go over the target area with the front half. Takes a little getting used to but it works good. I like using the relic mode with the trigger in the center. Discrimination just below nickles and gain at +1. The Bigfoot is great for covering a lot of ground like sports fields but you do lose a couple of inches in depth over the larger diameter coils.
