[QUOTE="Goldpick, post: 450909, member: 1695"] Forgot to mention last night was the maiden run for the bargain $150 9" low frequency coil I picked up a while back. Only downside compared to the White 9" HF coil is that it is damned hard to see in the dark using the wriggle back method for pinpointing, that is until my eyes eventually adjusted to the dark. I just ran it on 18kHz to start off with, and picked out the coin targets by ear - essentially any high conductivity target that offered a stable tone, most of the junk will tend to have variations or inconsistencies in the audio. If you haven't tried to detect in the dark before using only the audio, it is a real good exercise on getting to know your detector more intimately. If I must use the screen I have the backlight timeout set for 3 seconds so I don't completely ruin my night vision. Just have to be sure you are confident on your recovery methods for the least invasive extractions (ie don't leave a mess). [/QUOTE]
