F75 LTD in CL Mode?

[BobBool]

Hello, I'm new to the forum and wondering if anyone runs the LTD in CL mode. I'm having some success but wondering if anyone else has any tips.

I mainly coin hunt in red clay (SC) soil.

Thanks in advance!

I don't hunt in it very often, but I do know it is a deep mode and it forces one to slow down to a crawl. However, I don't like the audio as well as BP. HH jim tn

Slow way down in cl mode.

I thought that too, but try this bench test: In a low EMI environment, mount the LTD in CL mode so the bottom of the coil is exposed. Pass a coin over the bottom of the coil at various speeds. Tell me how fast you had to move your hand before the ID became inaccurate.

That's a good test. But perhaps the ultra-slow sweep requirement has to do with recovery speed in CL mode. Anyone care to comment on that possibility?

I saw someone post that the regularly hunted in CL mode and by using a very low sensitivity setting (like 5) they were able to swing a little faster and were getting coins at monster depths. Give that a try when your testing and let us know what your results are.

CL mode with the 15" DD should get some depth eh?

Been a while since I posted this - anyone try the CL mode to hunt for coins, or anything else for that matter? It's still my favorite go to mode.
