[QUOTE="KarlS, post: 62848, member: 2409"] Yes, you can forget about kit detector, even the cheap Chinese one work better. I know, I build one long time ago. Your idea of marriage SD and Xterra is interesting one and could be doable. But and big but is the coil. You see the XTERRA uses microprocessor in the coil that acts as preamplifier for received signal and also sends code to the main processor in the control box. Without the correct code your XTERRA will not recognize the coil. I'm not sure about SD I think it works in similar fashion. Even if you design coil that would be suitable for both detectors, it would not work. So you would have to keep swapping the coils and the would defeat the purpose of whole exercise. Karl [/QUOTE]
