New Coil Shape When Needed

[Ridge Runner]

Here I go again thinking outside of the box.

  We have a round coil like the SDC 2300 will have .Now your out in the field and you need a coil with a different shape to get between the rocks. This new coil will have a hinge at points around it. Now all you have to do is push in on the sides of that round coil to fit the size you need at the time. Each hinge point has a waterproof cover of canvas on the inside to keep out the dirt.

 If a toy company can make a transformer. Then why can't we make a transformer coil?

Probably the signal processing - the detector box doesn't know how to interpret the signal off of a triangular "coil" vs a "square coil" vs an elliptical coil.  Or worse, one which is all deformed from being shoved into a rocky crevice.

 

Just a guess.
