Greetings from Italy! My new Detech 10X12" SEF coil arrived last Friday, i tested it with my Sov GT Saturday on the beach during low tide in a place that i yet never hit this year; i hunted on the wet sand between the high and low tide line.
Found nothing of valuable but here is my impressions:
First the drawbacks: the cable is too short for hip-mounting, and the coil gives a false signal every time you submerge it in the water, but it function OK if you keep it submerged.
After two hours of hunting i begin to sense the difference from the stock 10" tornado coil; i picked up many time very short but strong signals in the 'gold' tone range, and of course i dig every one of them, it was small aluminium splinters, a few millimeters long, black and corroded at a depth of not less of 5 inches (i think it was remains of beverage aluminium cans).
so this coil is VERY sensitive, i never heard and dig this kind of object with the stock coil, and the interesting thing is that after digging 4 or 5 of this splinters i was able to discriminate them by the shortness of the tone.
I think that this coil could be very productive.
see you at the next hunt!
