Don't think Detech makes a 8x6 for the F75, They make one for the T2 but Kellyco doesn't stock them and from what I understand, Kellyco is the only dealer for Detech in the USA.

Haven't used one, but, looking at the pictures from the reviews, I don't think it would hold up to the abuse I would put on it.
Oklahoma black dirt in the summer is like concrete. lol

As others have said reduce your sensitivity, I think Tom D. said that you get diminished returns once you go past 4.75 to 5 on your sensitivity. Try a bump test, turn the machine on, if you can get it stable (no falsing) tap or thump the coil with your finger, if it sounds off when you do this, it is probably in the coil or coil connector.
If you are feeling brave, you could open up the box a

These are the first two sentences when you go to the Dankowski's forum home page, "This is an Open Forum to discuss any metal detecting questions or subjects. Please feel free to discuss any metal detecting subject, in good taste and with due respect to all users."
The part that says " in good taste and with due respect to all users" seems to get overlooked by some.

The one I have is pretty chattery, it will go deep though. Sent it back to First Texas 2 years ago and had it calibrated, over the years I think many fingers had been in the box...lol
I have an original Fisher probe on mine, works like a Sunray probe.

The stone that I passed this morning is about 4mm to 5mm, it took me about 4 weeks to pass it.
The best thing to do is just drink water, lots of it... Remember the old saying "This Too Shall Pass" but, it may feel like it is taking its sweet ass time though....lol

Daniel Tn, I feel for you, just passed this stone this morning....
Flomax (Tamsulosin generic name) If you are not using it, it can really help pass a stubborn stone, doctors prescription is required.
