Hi all, can anyone point me in the direction of instructions for constructing an XP Deus water antenna, preferably a you tube video or a pictogram please.

A good video just out of interest I made up one like this about 4 years ago and posted it up on detecting sites at that time, but used thinner cable from Maplins.

These days you can purchase one from XP.

Thanks Jerry, just how much of the centre conductor and shield is exposed ?

PS would've gone to Maplins, but I want to make a batch of them for the lads.

About 22 mm.

Try and purchase the more flexible Coax cable.

I made up 3 at the time one for my son and another for my detecting friend.

The Deus will detect in very shallow water without a aerial.

This coin came out in gravel in the shallows of a stream.
