Let's get the ball rollin' on these re-calibrated Gold Bugs!!

I figured, short term pain for long term gain) Would you be able to tell me how far down the Gold Bug will find a dime Space Weasel?
I found a couple of clad dimes last night between 4-6 deep but the location i was at is not very old. It is very stable and i had the 11`' coil on it. I was running in disc set at 40 and sens at 75.
 
I was only able to test the machine in my home last night, as it was late and mosquitos were terrible, but I am very impressed. The instructions say NOT to test the machine in your home as there is too much interference. Even at that, I could airtest a gold ring at 10" with that little coil! I dont know how they did that, but that small coil gets amazing depth! I will take it for a spin Saturday, but from what I have seen so far, it is VERY impressive!
 
Because I can tell you with confidence that you'll love it on land but you'll flat go insane thinking of the possibilities around the "what if's" if it were ever to be produced as a water detector. :yikes: You don't need that grief do ya? :crazy: Ungodly separation, stability, power, assignable two tone break, geez...makes me :puke: You don't even wanna know what it does to small gold rings.

Brad I did not need that! :punch: You know how much I wish one of the major manufacturers would step up to the plate and design a modern dedicated fresh water only detector.
 
my "sword named" water detector died last year and I can't bring myself to send it in with all the service problems they're having. My other one is OK at a lot/great at nothing. Besides, after using the current Teks so much, those older designs just don't cut it (in my mind) anyways. I B spoiled.
 
the older available stuff leaves me cold. Thats why I have been using land detectors in fresh water for years. Better in iron, deeper on the big stuff and more.
