[QUOTE="JD3, post: 594900, member: 18172"] My experience using the 17 was this. It did its best on the 11 inch coil in 32khz. It went deeper on the biggest sized nuggets I tested and used it on. My memory isn't so decayed as to recall this....even Maurice Cappolla...Doug Stones mate did very very well using that combo when the 17 was King. Will run stable and punch deep. Dont listen to the Mlab blurbs by the guys that sat behind the desks and parroted the dribble. Most I know used bits of aluminum foil rolled up or sinkers and lead shot and tested them on beaches, yep they were Minelab guys and still are around trying to be legends. What a joke. 17 using the 11 on 32 was fantastic in its day. :Y: The dimwits had no idea what it could do. Im convinced they still have no idea about the real world detecting. Hilarious.... rolled up chocolate foil as a test on a beach in the sand .. :lol: [/QUOTE]
