However I was told by an engineer (supposedly trained by minelab) that...

    Excal mods

    Hi all, this might sound silly, but has anyone tried to put the meter from a sovereign on an excalibur? I'm in the process of modding an old excal I've just bought to use multiple coils and wondered if I can put one in series or whether the circuitry on the excal won't drive it, Happy Hunting, Mark

    Cleaning silver, how do you do it?

    Hi all, recently I've been finding quite a bit of silver, often very thin chains. Can anyone help by letting me know the best way of cleaning them up. They're mostly out of black sand so are pretty dark, if not black themselves. Thanks for your time, Happy Hunting, Mark

    Meter in all metal?

    Hi all, I've got an xs-2a pro and need to know if using the meter in all metal works in the same way as in disc mode. The numbers don't seem to match from 1 mode to another. The meter is the original minelab one that came with the detector. Thanks for your time, happy hunting, Mark
