I have been running into what may or may not be a problem with my garrett ace 350. Sometimes I'll bump the coil on a plant or a patch of sand and the detector will give me a false signal of either nickel or silver (its always 8+ inches when I get the false silver signal). Another thing to note is that the detector also detects metals that are within 4-6 inches around the coil (not just above and below), like when I go near a sprinkler or a piece of playground equipment, it will say that it is above a steel of nickel object when in actuality it is 6 inches to the right of the coil and above ground.
I'm not sure if anyone else has experienced this or if it is even a problem at all, but it is really starting to get annoying so I figured I would post up and figure out if I have a defective coil or not.
