WOT, stands for Wild Orange Thing. It is a 15" DD(Double D) coil put out by Coiltek, and mainly used in Sov, Excal and I think some other Minelabs. It was the first bigger coil for Sovs and excals, and became popular. Kellyco and a few others sell them. Minelabs came up(I think) with the DD coil. Most minelabs have DD coils. Instead of having a cone shaped field of detection, a DD coil has 2 coils both with a D shape, and the middle, the whole middle is the detection area, so it is big rectangle or square going down, instead of a cone. In other words, finds more stuff! It is hard to get used to the pinpoint though.

Don't think U R going to find a WOT @ Kellyco but do a Google search & U will find a dealer
Much deeper than a stock 10

The WOT coil is much deeper than the stock coil and it can pinpoint well just off the tip without having to even use the pinpoint mode. Treasure_Hunter and Max of VA beach can tell you how to do this quickly.
