Just an update. I have been using my barracuda quite a bit lately on my local salt water beaches. This thing is killer! Hitting zinc pennies at an easy 15 inches. Many targets I had to give up on because I just couldn't dig them fast enough in the surf. It is also very quiet and does not see salt water at all. No gold yet but conditions have not been favorable.
My specs are as follows. Did the LF412 swap to LT082 and the NE55534 swap to LT1115. Left the tip127 in as I'm having no problems with it. The coil I have currently been using measures 12.5 inches across R is 1.31 and a .446uH and I'm running 12 volts
Would like to hear others field results.
