[QUOTE="PhaseTech, post: 234455, member: 3149"] Yes but if it's anything like the Gold Racer it has a very broad Sensitivity adjustment, so in favourable conditions you can crank it up to get more sens out of it, and in difficult conditions you can really dial it back. Interestingly, in a recent test I did with the Fors Gold + (19 kHz) with 5" DD coil vs my old xt18000 in 60 kHz with 10x5" coil, the Gold+ was as good if not better depending on the target. So freq is just one piece of the pie that determines performance. It also goes the other way around too. My old long gone gm v/sat at 50 khz beat the xt18000 on any frequency in dry sand. I think the combination of a very high gain circuit and concentric coil gave the v/sat the edge. But in hot ground, the 18000 was far superior. DD coil, tracking and lower freq (20 khz) made all the difference [/QUOTE]
