I have been using my ACE250 and 4.5" Super Sniper coil on land and on beaches lately and really enjoying it, though it's s small search swath..
before I would use the larger search coil that came with the metal detector on the beach but it would pick up a lot of false signals that required having to drop the sensitivity a lot to make it function less erratic when closer to the water or in very sea water saturated sands.. a youtube video by Uncle John (?) explains this well, and it does work but what do you lose with that sensitivity loss?
While out with the 4.5" Super Sniper Coil, I noticed that none of those issues were present when at the beach, I could have the coil up to the water, over the water, in among the black sand, everything that would give false signals to the larger coil were not present..
So my question is, what other large coils also have this type of performance at beaches as the Super Sniper coil? I'd like to be able to walk a bit faster while swinging the MD which I can't do with the smaller coil, so I'm wondering if there is a good larger sized coil that isn't easily mislead by false signals like the sniper coil?
Thoughts or ideas on this?
Thanks in advance.
Cheers
