[QUOTE="AngerManagement, post: 483083, member: 3760"] Tried a couple of NOX's in some gold places in SEQ and air tests are suss, but once you actually start detecting the ground... ummm unless the gold target is on the surface or rather large = not worth the trouble. Had only one 6in coil and the user could not get it stable, but I think he was trying to hard to max out settings... While I found that less was more with the 11. May have lost some depth and sensitivity, at least we could get it stable and usable. Found the 705 with its gold coil did better than the NOX in the locations we were at. But the NOX and 705 did OK with relics and coin due to ability to discriminate but no significant depth - still comes back to the user as ground conditions change every few M. [/QUOTE]
