[QUOTE="XLOOX, post: 536560, member: 16174"] This is a question for those with both a Pro Oz and an SL like Karelian & Ridgerunner. I have often wondered, Does the fine GB control makes a significant diff or not to being able to properly GB the machine in hot ground? The reason I wonder this is because I notice that with my SL in mild soil that the GB null point is not so much a point as a small range and that as you move away from that point the effect is gradual eg for a GB 8 null point, 7.25 is Screaming High Tone, 7.50 High tone, 7.75 sl chattery, 8.0 silent. 8.25 sl chattery, 8.50 low tone, 8.75 Honking low tone. This contrasts with really hot soil where IF I can get it balanced at all it is a knife edge ie 7.9 Screaming High, 8.0 sl chattery, 8.1 Honking Low. Under these conditions the machine is then much more sensitive to variations in sweep speed, variation in height above ground etc producing lots of exciting noises as I move about. I can sort of see thru the spurious signals but it is less than ideal. So I am wondering, ok I can see that a vernier fine GB should help in finding that knife edge null point in the first place but after both are ground balanced is the PRO Oz noticeably quieter that the SL in hot ground or not?
