Coils

I think i might get the 12inch evo and use that as my main coil and put the 11" DD and The 11" commander mono coils away for back ups . It seems alot of people regard the 12 evo as a great all round coil . So if i get the 12 evo straight up and get to no the 4500 with that coil and stick to it i should have the best set up for large and small nuggets once i have got the hang of it . Thats if i walk over any . Well i hope so anyway
And to Dig,n - it hope your trip goes well . The weather up here in north qld is beautiful at the moment . The speargrass up where you are going is abit long as i was up that way last week , but still plenty of places to swing a detector . Your going to love it . Take some sock protection from the speargrass i had to burn my first pair . It was still abit hot during the day but cooling down quickly.
ENJOY.

The 12" Evo sounds like a good choice.
Thanks for the heads up on the grass. Glad to hear there is plenty of places to detect. Cheers

Hi Rusty Dog... hope you got the NF mono, we found it was terrific on the 45

Well i didn,t end up buying another coil i took everyones advice and stuck with the 11" commander . It worked well i ended up with over 1oz of gold for a week . Some really small bits at good depth . Thanks for the advice everyone . I am so happy with the 4500 its a great machine when you get use to it .
Cheers.

I was talking to a bloke that recons that the 12 inch evo on the 4500 is way better than the 11inch command coil and will just about match the SDC2300 at finding small nuggets .

I recently but bught a qed which came with a 12" nf evo, I was going to sell it as I already had a 14x9 evo, but after using it, there is no way I'd sell it! Its an amazing coil, I reckon its more sensitive than my 14x9 evo, but because its soooo quiet, I can run the gain higher and back the stab off a bit. Don't have a commander mono to compare it with, but the 12 evo is my new go to coil, I use it on my 4500.
The QED gets the 14*9 and an 8" commander now.
You say you can get a 16" advantage for $160?
I'd hold off on that, and get an 18" or 20" advantage for deep ground later on. The advantage runs quieter than the big evos/elites but not as sensitive for the really small stuff, but your 11" commander should clean up the little ones first.
