Where did you order that puppy from sasks? Seems like you've been waiting on it for a couple weeks now!
 

Hi Sask // I have the 5x8 on and probably wont take it off but I would like to have some more good compairasons with the regular coil not just "I think its better" I wonder if it gives up some depth in good clean soil ?? Perry
 

Well made mistake of trying to save a few dollars and try and get it in Canada , but has been one headache after another , until I finaly said I want a tracking number and no more lies and screwups , lesson learned :(

Have to give an update on it.
 

Ok guys went to same spot for two hours and did very very well, firstly off the signals were sharper , and I could seperate targets very easily, pinpointing was easier , and I found no depth problems , I was finding tiny bits of wire at 7 inches , 22 shells rang loud, as did the silver quarters and dimes I found . Also I found an American penny with wheat on around it, is that what you called "wheaties"? Sorry for spelling mistakes but hands are cold from water , inwould not hesitate to recommend this coil to anyone
Also don't know what that thing is with the three flowers ? Broach? Gold?

Like Bart, mine doesn't come off either. Hey, I'm old and slow so it fits my style of detecting perfectly. Playing with the ground balance and knowing your machine can get this coil to go pretty deep. Yes, the soil means a lot too. But I am not looking to dig fence post holes, therefore I am quite happy with the depth on mine. If you are in a trashy area this coil can lock on a target very easily, remember that. But the biggest bonus is the weight factor, which I love.
 

The 5x8 is an awesome coil I think the pro should of had the option Serna like alot of us Atpro users keep em on
 

just got mine today...just put it on shaft...but haven't put on machine yet...gonna try it out this weekend
 

by the way...thanks bart for getting it here quick
 

You are going to love it don't let the size throw u!! Everything is sharper with this coil
