Thanks guys, yes I am looking at depth as I have a chance of going on private property which has never been touched with a 5000. So I'm thinking if I can go deep I might get some missed targets. Any suggestions on a good coil for depth. Will be using it for patch hunting as well.
cheers
Hi all, does anyone have the above coil? I'm thinking of adding one to my collection. I have the standard coils which come with the 5000 and have recently got the 12 x 7 NF which I find good.
Does the 24 x 12 still pick up small stuff to say .5 gram? Would be using in the Vic triangle and WA at...
Last day here 2mrw, so I'm putting in a big day around Donolly area, changed my coil to a NF elliptical. All systems are go :) check. A 270g Nugget was found in this area a couple of days ago in a totally thrased area 5" down, just goes to show they are still there.

thanks for that diggerdude, I think I might leave the van home and stay in cabin for a few nights probably less hassle than shaking the van to bits as it isn't an off roader. Can also get there quicker.
I'll let you know how I go.
greeny :)
Thanks Chimpy, I'll be leaving the Van at Tibooburra Town and come back to it at the end of the day. Should be nice and warm during the day time this time of year, better than 15c in Adelaide at the moment.
Hi all, Picking up my new GPX 5000 shortly and thought I might head up to Tibooburra for a week. I have a couple of questions though:
I'm looking at towing my caravan up there and need to know what the condition of the road is like, ie sealed or some dirt. I would stay at the Tibooburra Caravan...
