[QUOTE="mbasko, post: 550181, member: 4485"] Yes as said buying used is a real minefield nowadays but not impossible to get what you're paying for with due diligence. To me it's only really a legal or moral issue if your 100% sure it's counterfeit or you knowingly buy a counterfeit product. If your happy with how it's performing but not sure if it's genuine I'd just treat it as genuine & enjoy using it Depending on the ground your using that 5" coil on it may be more an issue with the ground mineralisation & not so much the coil? Especially if it's settling down ok with lower gain. Small coils can become swamped with ground signal due to the small surface area whereas a larger coil can handle the ground mineralisation better but is more susceptible to outside interference i.e. EMI.
