Popular Post dogodog Posted April 3, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted April 3, 2020 Today I decided to break our states stay at home rule today. Now they mandated us wearing masks ever time we go outside, I call BS. I'm in the middle of a 20 acre field with no one near me for 1/4 of a mile. I just got my new 11'' coil (AF-28) for the Multi Kruzer, which is the factory coil on the anfibio. I couldn't wait to give it a run. I started out with a couple of air tests to see if my numbers were comparable to the 11x7 and the 9 inch. The 11's numbers are a little different on gold in the 50's VS 30's on the other coils. As for other coins, silver and such, they are just a few ticks higher on the scale. I've hunted this spot a lot and thought it was pretty much devoid of finds. So today I decided to take some advise that Againstmywill posted recently, and I cut my gain way back and decided to hunt the top couple of inches of ground. Boy did it pay off, Don't get me wrong I dug a lot of trash, but this was to work out my numbers and sounds with this coil. I think this might be the best coil for the Multi Kruzer. The only downside is EMI . I thought I had a pretty good day on the coins and got a bonus silver ring, I can't complain about that. I want to give a shout out to Tom Slick another forum member who recommended the 11'' coil. You were spot on Total Count 8 Quarters - 7 Dimes - 1 Nickle - 19 Penny's - old iron ring, glass fuse, at least 100 pull tabs, brass buckle, And a nice little silver ring. Sometimes it's worth breaking the law!! ( no one was hurt in making this post and Dogodog is a purely fictional character. ) Stay safe my friends!!! 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was your digging faster so you could recover more targets? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ridge Runner Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 A great detector with great finds and a petty face to go with it .haha It’s really great to see the person behind the detector. Chuck 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've read all of his posts for almost 6 months now, and just who could take such great pictures if he is not real? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff McClendon Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 Glad you got out, didn't have any trouble, enjoyed the Kruzer and made some great finds. Here in Colorado we can still go for walks, exercise and do a few errands as long as we don't leave the state basically. In Denver county we are supposed to stay within the city limits, but I live 2 blocks from the county line and my bank, doctors and grocery store are all in the next county. So, I make sure I take my dog for a walk in neighborhood parks and I just happen to take my detector too....... Jeff 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogodog Posted April 4, 2020 Author Share Posted April 4, 2020 I'm not as pretty as I used to be, Time and stress have taken its toll. Ha Ha. The digging was much faster but after the first 50 targets things got a little slower. Being 6'3'' up and down gets old quick. I was thinking of hiring a professional target recovery expert!! This coil is probably the best all around coil for the MK, And to my surprise, It has way better separation in trashy area's than the 9'' coil. In deep mode you can dig 12'' + targets all day long. Jeff, you need to get your dog one of those Detech SSP 5100's with some wheels on it so the pup can contribute to the finds box. Dog's got to earn his keep Ha Ha. Stay safe all and have an awesome day 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kac Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 Glad the 11" is working well. If you had emi issues with the 11" then the 13 or 15 would slaughter you. Did you try frequency shift? I nudged my 14khz down a couple clicks so it doesn't blast my ears when I use my pinpointer. How does iron mask on that coil? So far I picked up a couple finds that my other machines would have missed or been very difficult to find with the iron in the same hole. For numbers the concentric will show different vdi especially on flat iron like b-caps. Surprised the 11 is that much different than the stock dd. I would think they would be the same. Regardless I don't really look at the vdi that often and go by the audio. Using mostly 2 tone mode with iron audio on n2 so iron doesn't cut out on the fringe. Very different than the way I run my Garrett and Tesoro where I use the fringe tone break. As an example if I break on a square nail iron disc 32-33 I rarely hear but a crackle in most my hunts and if there is another higher conductor nearby like a silver or copper etc. the crackle will be a recognizable signal even if the vdi says otherwise. Getting a hint of something else I can then approach the target at different angles and see if its worth bending over for. I am finding this to be a bit trickier on the Kruzer probably because I am not used to it yet. So anyways the n2 iron is worth a try. Nice finds! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Slick Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 I'm happy to hear you picked up the Anfibio coil for your MMK and that it's working well for you. It really is a great coil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Herschbach Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 Since I just had to delete a post critical of breaking laws, let me point out that is tongue in cheek. The vast majority of us are under advisories regarding staying home and not congregating in groups. And in virtually all cases but a very few it’s ok to be outside, walk the dog, ride a bike, whatever. Just stay away from people. In other words, normal metal detecting. There can be no harm in detecting when nobody is within 100 feet, and it certainly is less risky than going to the grocery store, which people are doing every day. So let’s not go into “Quarantine Shame” mode here. Thanks. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
