I don't own the ML 15", but, I have used the ML15 quite a bit hunting relics in New Mexico. I know that it will hit some mighty small stuff and I'm sure it would have hit the same targets. I was glad to see the Coiltek hit

I took the Coilek out for the first time this morning to the spot at the lake I've been hunting for the last 14 months. I will say, I was a little concerned because of the first couple of reviews about the coil. I had to remind myself that soil conditions, settings, modes and time on the machine decide how well a coil will perform, not test gardens, no offense to anyone.
I set the Nox u

I moved from the Explorer, Etrac and CTX before getting a Nox, I took to it like a duck to water. It was a natural transition for me, b

Never , 1 tone or 2 99% I use my tone breaks and tone pitch to determine dig or no dig. Since I've been jewelry hunting at the same lake all year, it's dig it most of the time.

I'm looking to get a dedicated machine just for hunting gold chains and earrings on some fresh water beach sites while the lake level is down drastically. I'm thinking maybe a Gold Monster 1000 or perhaps a GB2. I like the idea of having 2 coils with the Minelab and the Auto ground balance, any suggestions????

I'd like to see an overload feature along with better audio modulation. The Fe/CO, along with the target trace display is what made the CTX so effective for me when trolling for the deeper coins. Like a lot of us Minelab guys, more choices in coils would be a big plus.

Having no preconceived ideas about what to expect will be a good test to see if I can't detect 'subtle' "stability enhancements"

The phones are fine, the volume was a bit low for me,but, I can't hear that well. The main reason is, I sold the Tarsacci and the gentleman didn't want any headphones.
A lady stole a truck, got drunk and went hauling arse down a street where my daughters car was parked along the curb. She hit her car so hard that it broke the 2 inside tires off, and pushed it up past the sidewalk. The
