    Excalibur for finding black sand

    I reluctant to take a non water detector in the water. When the water is deep, it is totally out of the question anyway. I have an Excalibur and I was wondering if anyone here has ever used it to detect black sand in the streams. If so, what was you listening for and what setting were you using...

    Has anyone used the new Excal II yet?

    I am really wanting to know if there are any technical improvements that affect performance. I am not talking about not having a straight shaft, but mainly does the electronics perform better? Better meaning more stable or better depth, etc. Are there any other intangibles that just make you...

    Had a scare - this forum is now at a different location

    On the Index it is further down and I thought for a minute it was gone. I'm sure glad it isn't.

    This weeks finds :cam:

    I decided to only post once a week instead of every trip. I have now had a few trips where I didn't find a ring or gold, but all in all things are still pretty good. The lake water has warmed up around here and things aren't falling off fingers like early in the season. I was still able to find...
