Took the excal to the beach over the past several days using the new 15" WOT and it's been great. Today, not so great. I went to a different beach ( La Jolla ) and there was nothing I could do to keep her in check. The sensitivity was off the charts. I had sensitivity at full low and lowered the threshold lower than I'd prefer to do and every swing it would just gawk from the left most of the swing to the right most. Anything near water and it was worse than an old woman at a book club. One hr prior at another beach it was flawless. I got home, gave it a shower, tore it down and inspected all the wiring, cleaned all the connections with electrical cleaner and put some dielectric grease on the pins. Nothings wrong.... I guess I have to attribute it to mineralization. I though the excal was pretty good with this... Anywhere near the water at this beach and it was close to worthless. I didn't have the 10" to throw on to see if it had to do with the coil, the machine, or the soil.
Anyone else have issues at particular beaches where your machine just sucked?
