Just added Ground Balance to my Cibola

[Sven]

End results were excellent. Using 9x8" coil, now Air tests about 1 1/2 - 4" deeper than fixed groundbalance in all metal and gained 1- 3" in disc. mode. Meets or exceeds the air test results I got with the Tejon I owned. Hot little booger with the 5 3/4" coil, too.

I am happy with the results using the 10 turn pot for GB.

Here's some pictures, still learning with this new camera, so they are the best I can get at this point.

Nice work

Great work sven, we in the UK get charged $70 plus postage for having that modification done.

Do you have any more Tesoro mods?

That's all I have for now.
I may want to tinker with a Compadre if I can find one cheap.

I'm interested since I have Compadre. I have only adjusted pots inside (sens, ground balance?), on advice from Steve in MS.

I really want to try Compadre with different coils (including homemade), just need to find good cheap inline connector and guts to make the cut. Will be very interested if you do that too.

So where is your new pot sticking out, do you have picture of it?

It replaced the pinpoint button on the faceplate. The pinpoint button was replaced with a toggle that is placed under the arm rest like a Tejon.
