  • Where can I get the search coil?

    Hello everyone!
    I won an detector TITAN, model GC1018 , he is in perfect condition, a new detector, but he came not in the search coil.
    As I do not want to be depreciated with this detector, I would have it working and with the search coil.
    If anyone knows the way that I can follow to acquire the coil this detector I would greatly appreciate it.
    Thanks.

    It's a Chinese brand, so you probably cannot buy a coil for it. However, I think it's a copy of an older 6.6kHz White's design, so perhaps an old White's coil can be made to work.

      Carl Friend,
      I even made contact with the Jimmy Sierra suggesting that their opinion and he told me he thinks it works.
      This detector is very similar to a model of Famous Trails, the MD9300 and the search coil is the same size, perhaps to copy this model, what do you think Carl?
      Look:

      http://www.famoustrails.com/md9300.htm

      Carl, you know that more than me, and is a collector of detectors could help me try to get more information and maybe help me solve this problem, and give me the way forward.
      Maybe you know someone that fixes and who knows more about this detector and search coil which I could use.
      I know it's abusing your time and your kindness, but if it can solve this problem I would be grateful.
      For me it is complicated because the language harms me, and I have to keep using the Google translator, and this hurts and backward search and reasoning.
      Dear friend, sorry make this request of you, but is extended to others who read this post, and who know the taste, enjoyment and appreciation by the detectors, whatever they may be, and leave it at that ... it is sad until one too big for me ...
      I got little information so far, a forum, a person came into contact with the Famous Trails, asking the frequency of operation of the MD9300, and I'll put below:

      "- I emailed and asked about the frequency and the factory said:

      "MD 9300 operates from 50 kHz to 3KHZ
      Famous Trails "

      You understand that and have more experience, is this the right way?
      For me it is confusing ...
      Please Carl or someone who can show me the light at the end of the tunnel, help me!
      Thank you!

        The model DM9300 brand Famou Trails, the finish is identical dimensions, the size of the search coil, including the art of screen printing is used to identify the controls of buttons ... if I could search coil that certainly would work correctly Because I think the frequency of the search coil is correct ....
        Look and say something to me.
        What do you think?
        Where is the factory of Famous Trails?
        Who can make contact with me?

                Hello!
                I found the search coil to sell, was appointed a shop here in South America, in Paraguay, they have these coils to sell separately, it costs $ 35 plus shipping and I do not know the value, I sent an email to them, and I am awaiting response.
                I believe that everything is resolved, and that I can buy without problems.
                I appreciate the concern and interest of friends here at the forum!!
                Thanks and a great weekend everyone!

                    Clemente, a custom made coil is not the best solution. You should ask Garrett company and Garrett forum. They can advise you what coil is suitable to buy.

                        Hello everyone!

                        Unfortunately I could not buy search coil to the detector.
                        I ask my friends who live in the U.S., if they can some solution where I could get the coil I would be very grateful.
                        I have already sent more than 5 e-mails to the address that is the site of the factory Famous Trails and even today they did not respond.
                        If any of you have any solution please let me know, I'm almost crazy looking for the search coil.
                        Below I put some specifications contained in the instruction manual:

                        • Working frequency: 6kHz ~ 6.8KHz
                        • Operating Frequency: 6KHz ~ 6.8kHz
                        • Audio Frequency: 360Hz ~ 440Hz
                        • Search Coil: 9 inches 1 / 2

                        I'm grateful for any information.
                        I got in touch with RadioShack to sell these detectors, but they did not tell me you have the coil or not, and they can only make sales within the EUA.
                        I have a credit card Visa International, and I can make the purchase at any store that accepts purchases from abroad.
                        I will await any news, all are welcome.
                        Thank you all for your help.

                          There is an old post ( 10-25-2008 ) on Geotech where Pennyweight was selling 3 detectors, one of which is a broken 1018 with a coil. It might be worth contacting him to see if it's still available. ->

                          Also, some information on using a Whites' coil with the GC1018 ->

                          I've also found the manual, which is attached.
                          Hope this helps.
