A Garrett ATX with a couple of interesting alternative coils has come up on eBay today (https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Metal-d...175993?hash=item4204407a39:g:H8sAAOSwq5tdICSQ).

I heard of people trialling Infinium coils on the ATX some years ago, but can't remember how well they went:

Then there's this - is that coil an old NuggetFinder?:

Infinium LS DD coils work well on an ATX, incidentally the original open ATX DD coil also work well on an Infinium LS.
 
Video don't seem to work, it was just me using an ATX with an Infinium coil on a beach outing.

Trying out an ATX coil on the Axiom.
It works but need modification on the shaft in order to fit, perhaps I will do it later.

Is the video in a private group?
I can't find it on there to see if I can fix the link.

Your game! Ivan haha. I haven't been out yet, just been down the road away from the EMI trying different things so far very happy with Axiom. Can't wait to get out end of May.

Cheers

Best way to know for sure what a detector can do, is to try it yourself.
Picture here is after a beach outing using the Infinium LS with an ATX DD-FC coil.

Have you tried the axiom dd coil on the atx? I've been thinking about converting my atx to a regular shaft and the 11x7 dd fc would be ideal. I want an 8 inch mono but no way I'm spending that much for just a coil.

Coils I use on both the ATX and Infinium LS.
