"portable radar dish," at a less-trashy part of the park. I love the extra space I cover per sweep; almost allows me to cover twice the ground. I did hit on many deep targets, mostly coins and buttons. I was excited to get a 1905 Barber dime at 10 inches that came in as "12-41" two-ways. The signal was consistent and strong. I also nabbed an 1894 Barber quarter at 11 inched deep! It was a little weaker signal, but still consistent at "12-41/42." All I could say was "wow!" I was running sensitivity at Auto+3, and it was hitting at 25 when I found the coins.
The coil is a bit heavy, but I find that setting down the machine to recover targets every so often gives the arm enough of a rest! I also found a few Mercs, an Indian, and some wheats. All in all, a good hunt. Wish the damn sun would come back to Mid-MO!
