[QUOTE="Lesgold, post: 603070, member: 9840"] The testing a mate and I undertook with the Nugget Finder Zed Search coil compared to the standard coil was a valid approach that produced interesting results. In this situation, two zeds were setup with the different coils and identical settings that worked well in a specific area. We would then detect as normal (in close proximity to each other.) Obvious signals were handled as per normal and the target recovered. Really faint signals were what we were after. If either machine picked up a subtle break in the threshold, the other machine would then be used to check that sound before any digging took place. A painful process really but it was worth it in the long run. This process was used in a number of different locations using settings that worked well in those areas. The results achieved are not important here as this thread is based on the GPX6000. I will be getting a gpx when it comes out and will conduct similar tests between the zed the 6 to see where each machine shines. (I will have the Zed Search coil bolted to the 7000 when conducting these tests) Results will be posted when these tests are undertaken. I may also use a similar approach using the 6 and the sdc. Fun times ahead. Cheers Les [/QUOTE]
