[QUOTE="nuggetino, post: 47131, member: 1884"] thanks for the tips loamer. Have just received my 24" DD coil and headed out to jupiter creek for a test run. I absolutely love this coil. Found some very deep targets with the 24" and checked them over before digging with my smaller mono and DD coils. No signal! I wound up with a 303 bullet at what must have been 75+cms and some rusty lump of iron trash at over a meter down. Hell of a work out but I was stoked at the fact that nobody had dug these signals (especially the 303 bullet) as they were in detecting hot spots. Swinging this coil around in the scrub for 7 hours did grow heavy on my shoulders though i hope to get used to it soon. I'd imagine many people avoid the big DD for that very reason. If I wasn't a young man built like the proverbial I could see myself struggling with this coil. Are there any favorite settings you use with this coil and have any luck with it in the goldfields? I found myself running in DD mode, salt-coarse, gain 15, tracking on. It was whisper quiet. When I found a potential target I switched into sharp to confirm. [/QUOTE]
