Wanted to get some opinions here. Right now I'm using a Titan 1000XD, which is a re-branded Bounty Hunter Discovery 1100. It came with a 7" coil. Since most of the sites I currently have access to have had a lot of dirt moving, I'm interested in increasing my depth. Plus, I think my coil may have a small issues, as when I put the sensitivity to the max, it falses with movement - take it down a notch (to 80%) and it is fine. So I know I'm losing some depth there, plus the limit placed by a 7" coil.
Long term, I want to upgrade to a Whites XLT or a Minelab X-Terra 30 (if I can ever find one for sale). But right now money is tight and I can't justify spending that much on a new machine. So I got to thinking about putting a new, larger coil on my machine to get some more depth. I can get a 10" coil for $50 (which is what I paid for the machine initially), and I think I can get away with spending that right now. Would it be worth it, or should I just continue to save for a better over-all machine?
