    Probe for Excalibur

    Greetings, I've owned a Quattro for two years and just love it ... but ... I keep eyeing the water and am thinking of an Excalibur. I really enjoy the Sunray X-1 probe on my Quattro and am wondering what folks are using for the Excalibur. Preferences/recommendations appreciated. Maja

    Two Scoops

    I'm looking to get a long-handled scoop to use at the beach along the shore where the sand is wet to water knee deep. There's two basic designs: closed all the way around and open at the top. Anyone used both? Preferences? [attachment 25500 RTG6inchMonsterScoop.jpg] [attachment 25501...

    Two Questions About Scoops

    Greetings, I purchased my Quattro last year and had a blast at the beach digging up coke cans and loose change -- lots of great experience and it was very satisfying retrieving in sand that still had footprints of other detectorists. Question 1 regarding sand scoops: However, I had purchased...

    Testing, 1, 2, 3

    My Quattro arrived today. I assembled it, turned it on, holding the power button to make sure I had the Factory Presets, and thought I'd do a quick test. I took it outside, selected Coin/Jewelry, put the coil on the ground, hit Noise Cancel, swept it over a piece of ground with no signal...

    Standing in Waves

    Greetings, Newbie here -- Quattro is in the mail. I posted this question in the Quattro Forum as part of another discussion but realized I should probably have posted it here to start with. The scenario I'm imagining is this. An MDer is at the beach, standing in water that is over waste high...

    Metal, Stones -- What Do I Have?

    Greetings, I'm wondering what folks do when they find something and want to know what it is. If it's gold, is it 14k, 18k? Is this stone a diamond? Thanks.

    Where to Buy?

    Where have y'all purchased (or wish you'd purchased) your Quattro? It seems most places are selling them for around $850 and include some sort of promo like a Garmin Geko, Sabisch's book, free headphones, etc.

    Pinpointer/Probe

    More reading -- another question. I have come across some discussion regarding electonic pinpointers. Having one of these seems like a good idea to more quickly find a target once I'm close. Any recommendations?

    Tones and Target IDs

    I have been reading the manual for the Quattro and am a bit confused. For this post, I'll call COIN and COIN/JEWELRY modes Coin Mode, and RELIC and ALL METAL modes Metal Mode. The manual says that target IDs in the negative range indicate a ferrous object; positive, non-ferrous. The...

    Explorer vs Quattro

    Greetings -- newbie here, turned 50 last week and have decided to boogie-board a little less and take up something that won't make my back muscles so sore. (I know, trading sore back muscles for worn out knees.) I'm patient and tenacious and think MD'ing will be fun. I've done a lot of...
