Well, I now know how SkiWhiz feels....

To keep this correct for this "How to use your metal detector", let me preface it by saying that the faster you swing the Ace, the deeper it goes. So I put my sensitivity at 3 bars and fly, baby, fly-just like a competition hunt. I understand, now, Ski....Bong! Bong! Boop!,Bonk! all day long. The little tiny charm turned out to be 14k!Bong! Bong! Bong!

Sorry-it's the one to the left of that butterfly-the light kinda glared on it. It's tiny but has a beautiful rose emblem on that side and 14k on the reverse. Let's see- I believe I counted about $7.44. I never keep records-I know-a bad idea.

I suppose even an Ace will find a coin or two if you swing it fast and looooooooong enough . Got to be a reward now & again for putting up with that *^%&$#@$^&_!`~ bing bong ding dong .

Ten years ago I coulda kept it up for a couple of hours. After an hour, I noticed a slight reduction of speed.

All kidding aside sllingshot, I have the schematics to add a coil connector on a Compadre so a person could change the coils on it but have never done the mod. I would be interested in trying a 9x8 open spoke coil or even the 12x10 open spoke coil on a Compadre. If you are serious about adding the 3x18 and need the schematics if you don't have them let me know.

Thanks. You posted it before and I wrote it down. If I could afford it, I would put it on my Silver umax.
