No it’s definitely not for that. This is for big open fields I’m going in not the iron patch.
And you’ll probably leave it after me
I regret to inform me I'm older than you. At least I have a reservation for hereafter. You gotta keep to those open fields. You could do like I did today, I went to a CW camp dug since the 1950's and got 1 eagle button, an eagle back and 6 tiny, itsy bitsy pieces of camp lead, like the biggest one was 1/4". But on a high note, one of the pet goats came over, got within 20 feet from me, then gasped! and the little brown goat ran away very fast! So I scare goats. I had been warned there was a male goat in the pen interesting in "dating"...well, just about anything, however I did not see him, just the brown little girl. Scardey cat goat!
Only me, only me.
Only me, only me.
LMAO also.

You're gonna need a bigger shovel! Good luck with that.

I’m interested too. My first use in a field I certainly noticed quite a bit of falsing, even though I made a few good finds

I was teasing. But as you can see, no matter what, people are going to run into it. See Relicmeister's post. I dunno if its the power of suggestion or what, but its always gonna come up. It's an occupational hazard, like pull tabs ringing up like gold and nickels. Too many varibles to narrow it down to coil, firmware, site conditions, etc. I just deal with it, use the tools I have to make a dig decision and move on to the next target. Honestly have not had enough swing hours to say it falses more than the the ither thing I found which is falsing is more prevalent on days ending in "y".
My 12 X 15" coil just came in too. I'll let you know if I have any unusual problems.

I used it for the first time today and I absolutely love it I have no complaints it was the same as the 11 inch except bigger and deeper.

you are so right about Doc. Got my 800 in 3 days in March of 2018 while others were waiting months. A Kellyco salesman tipped me off to hit small dealers on new allocated products because they don't have as large of a wait list like Kellyco.
I am afraid of that 15 incher on my 800, I get tired digging 9 inch holes in my Georgia red clay mixed with rocks and roots. Imagine digging 15 minutes for a drink can top or screw top?
but down where you live, I suspect the soil is more sandy. let us know how it works and what you find. I am curious.
