    Trash coil -- 6" excelerator vs 8 x 6 sef

    I've had the SE for less than a month now and need to get a coil for trashy areas. I had been set on the 6"excelerator, but on reading about the 8x6 sef I'm not sure anymore. What are your thoughts as to target separation, depth, stability differences -- or just your own biased preferences...

    Sweep speed question -- application

    I've been detecting for several years, but only have 3 hunts under my belt with SE. I understand the need for a slow sweep speed to allow the FBS circuitry/software to handle target signals, with "slow" being the operative word, especially in trashy areas. Here's my question: Would you say...

    Had my heart going.

    Hunted with buddy Don today on some empty house lots in Birmingham southside. I've pulled a few wheats and a silver Washington quarter from these lots in the past with my Whites XLT. The lots have a lot of trash and the soil in this part of town has high mineralization that is very unevenly...

    First time with EX SE and a first find

    I've been detecting about 7 years and making some nice finds with a Whites XLT-e and decided to give the Explorer a try. So I traded in some sliver and gold and bought a lightly used Explorer SE. I've read the manual, working through Sabisch's latest book, learned from forum discussions and...

    Short hunt before the rain 1-15-07

    The bad weather that's been sweeping across the country is arriving in Alabama. But Bill and I were able to get out for about an hour and a half before the rain started. This is an older house that is being renovated. The couple that lived there were in their nineties. Bill hunted it...

    A nice day for detecting

    I picked up Lawrence this morning and we met James for a day of detecting. The weather was a little cool but turned off very nice. We hunted the old housing area again and a wooded area. Of course, James found the first and most silver. We all dug lots and lots of modern coinage. Lawrence...

    Anybody seen one of these?

    I've had this on the Whatzit forum but no response. Mayb somebody here has seen this kind of pendant before or can read the Latin on it. It is smaller than a time and made of aluminum. Thanks, Eddie

    Aluminum pendant

    Anybody know Latin? Found this pendant at a home site that was recently cleared. It's made of aluminum, so not too old. It's size is smaller than a dime. Thanks, Eddie

    Cibola poles replaced

    If you saw my "Cibola at the Beach" posting and have a similar problem with the lower pole not sliding properly into the middle pole I have good news. I called Tesoro and sent the poles to them on Nov 2. Today (Nov 9th) I just got the replacement/repair poles back and they work great now...

    Cibola at the beach.

    Went to the FMDAC Fall Convention at Panama City Beach a couple of weeks ago and am just now getting around to letting you know how the Cibola did. All of the planned hunts were in the dry sand and it did just fine there. I was able to set sensitivity to 10 and have the threshold all the way...
