:usaflag: The 10X12" SEF Coil Works On My Old Excal!!:detecting:

[Cupajo]

Several hunters more knowledgeable than I assured me that the old Excal with the horseshoe crab coil would work just fine with the new coil and it does!!

Many Thanks Old Beachnut and Davespen for getting me on track!!

I spliced the cable until the connector arrives and am using it on the beach and enjoying myself.

I have found a lot more targets with this new coil and added this 14K wedding band to my success stories.

Along with this huge stainless ring.

I'm looking forward to getting the coil out in the salt water.

I've been thinking about putting my 15" Coiltek on my old Excalibur. It's not waterproof anymore so it should make a good beach machine now.

Sounds like an idea worth trying John!

As long as the area where you hunt is not plagued with electrical interference or heavy mineralization the coil should allow you to really cover the beach!

I have no experience with the coil you mention, but often large coils are too sensitive to these problems.

Keep us posted,

CJ
