That Octagon coil shape is one of the reasons the Vista X performs so well in contaminated ground. Why not give it more time?

Keith, Glad you have the Algoforce to try on your red dirt relic sites. Very interested to know what you experience & think of it's practical performance, especially in dealing with iron trash. I've held off on it waiting to see what the Nokta Relic PI is going to offer. Good to hear from you Sir.

Your going to like the Vista X. It is an impressive machine for stability, depth. working thru Iron & punching mineralized soil.

Yes, good topic. Hopefully some here have used the E1500. I have always wanted to try a PI to relic hunt in my bad dirt sites. I have been waiting on the Nokta unit to come out. I'm gong to need some degree of Iron ID to not be overwhelmed.

I can 2nd Todd's experience with the Vista X in very similar site conditions. The Vista X, like all Flagship level detectors, has it's own set of attributes. That is why it will see targets other machines have missed. The same can be said about any of the top of the line units. I don't think there i...

A very good demonstration. Jack is very thoughtful about his tests. I would like to see the same down his "Iron Line" of co-located targets with each unit optimally adjusted.

True. It's one of those, ya gotta try it for yourself to see it does work quite well.

I have several, including Maghemite red dirt. I will definitely be testing soon as time & weather allow.

I will have more to say after I spend some more time with the unit. It does well.
