Got the new smaller coil yesterday

[digitrich]

It's white and yes filled with black epoxy, didn't come with a cover, they may have forgot? Gonna try it today, it is small, so now I have a big and a tiny, would of preferred a medium 7 or 8 inch round but for what I'm gonna use this for; dense trash this should be about right. From what I understand, it's a concentric, you'd think at this small size it would be a double d, Who's overlapping strokes of a 6 inch oblong coil by 50%? Guess I will be if it starts finding nice targets in trash. Maybe, just maybe, they know something that I can't figure out. We shall see. I'll let you know how it goes with my limited understanding of the F75.

where did you buy the coil?

Hi there........
I think this little rascal is just what the - F- needs. It takes the best from both DD and CC construction
thinking,--fuses that together in a neat little coil --and the result you get is a slimline coil ....something in between
the MXT "shooter"3x6,and the Goldbug 3x6 "sniper" ---in short---------
FISHER HAS MADE IT AGAIN
Happy hunting and good luck to you all

Well, I got to try the smaller coil, problem is, which is now obvious; my machine is %$#$%@^^ed :veryangry:. I bought my F75 back in May and really hadn't used it that much cause I couldn't get to work right. I thought I might have gotten a bad coil with it originally, well now I know it's not the coil. So I'm going to send the F75 in for repair. Sorry I couldn't update you guys on the smaller coil. One interesting thing is ground that balanced at 52 before, with the original, larger coil now balances at 86 with the smaller coil, I don't know if that's good or bad? And as expected, you can set the sensitivity quite a bit higher if not just put it in JE mode.

were you ground balanacing it at the same spot. on my t-2 the #'s can vary from 40-70 just a few feet away. a couple of times it stayed at 90.

Hi Dig!...........sorry to see your F(emale)75 is poorly.

How did you figure out it was a girl?

Hope she's better soon..........MattR.UK

All she does is yap in very short, continuous, tones that don't make sense with no purpose other than to nag the hell out of me.
