I'm swinging the NEL Big Coil (13"x17") for relics these days and the Minelab harness is a must for hours of hunting.
But if you've ever tried using that Harness with the Etrac, you'll know finding a connection point is tricky. I have hundreds of hours with the harness, E-trac and Ultimat 13 coil, and now with the NEL Big Coil (15x17)
So I just discovered a $5 product that fixes the issues. It's called a Husky Hang All and I got it at Home Depot. Add a $3 Night Eyze Quick Release (75 lb version) for glove friendly clip-unclip action.
(This post about making the E-trac and the Pro Swing Harness work well with the NEL Big Coil if you'd like a bit more detail.)
The key here is that the hang-all "cradles" the control box (velcro) and gives you a hang point exactly at the center of Gravity. Plus it leaves the entire handle free and buttons clear.
I adjust the harness position by lowering the coil to the ground and then taking just a bit of weight off of it into the Harness.
Highly recommended cheap upgrade.
