Good job conquering cabin fever by getting out, braving the elements and quenching your gold fever to boot!

Speaking of speakers, it would be nice to see a small (no larger than 3”x3”x1”), rugged, clip-on, wearable type speaker with adjustable volume and a mute button, 10-hour minimum battery life, with IPX7 dustproof and waterproof rating…something like this.

Maybe it will work on Jeff's, he has had a DD coil with his Axiom that didn't work in fine mode 🙂
I had the same thought when I read Jeff's post.

Is the X Coil more sensitive than the smallest stock coil in mild to medium ground at sacrifice of reducing ground balancing in hot ground? Or is it about the same sensitivity as the stock coils in mild ground but also failing to ground balance in hot ground?
Jason, from what I'm seeing running the DOD X-coil prototype for the Axiom, I have to say it's the latter case; it seems to have about the same sensitivity as the stock Axiom 11”x7” mono coil in all modes except for the Fine mode, where it won’t ground balance at all in moderately mineralized soil. I've decided not to waste any more time with the coil, so I won’t be posting a separate thread about it after all, since this prototype coil has no performance advantage over the stock coil…sorry guys.

Hey Reese, those look thick enough to keep the “teddy bear” cactus from punching through. Is that the case?

That has to be the save of the year, Gerry!

Nice gold, WTG!

Jim, have you thought of just removing the metal eyelets? I've been doing that for many years with cheap pairs of hiking boots from Walmart and Big 5. Just make sure they don’t have a metal shank by using a pinpointer or rare-earth magnet.

I'll take the opportunity to segue here, Steve. So far in what I would call moderate to medium mineralized ground here in the southwestern desert region of Arizona, the 8-inch prototype DOD X-Coil for the Garrett Axiom does not ground balance in the Fine mode, but does in the Normal, Large and Salt modes. So I'll be putting the coil through its paces in those modes this winter and report my findings in a new thread, so stay tuned. I too am scratching my head at why X-Coil would bother making coils for the Axiom because of their premium prices, as well as at their choice of coil configuration; I personally would've rather chosen a concentric coil. At any rate, from what I'm seeing with the prototype so far, my guess is that a production coil on the market is still a long way off.

That certainly is some nice crack, Allen…WTG!

That sounds like my old hunting partner, the legendary Smokey Baird; he told me the exact same thing when I first met him at Rye Patch nearly 24 years ago…has it been so long?!

Nice gold, Condor. Sorry you had to suffer the knee injury.
