    question about the HH wader

    HH wader: It is my understanding that detector pro no longer makes this model. Does anyone know why.....I know they came out with the pirate, but can't quite figure out if/why they stopped the HH's. I have a chance to pick one up, and if there is any information on them it would be greatly be...

    Freedom 3 questions

    Good day guys: I was fortunate and able to pick up 2 Freedom 3's one was new in the box stored in a garage for 20 or so years and the other was hardly used. I ran the Freedom 3 as my first real detector (years ago) and really liked it, so it was a nostalgic thing for me. in my humble opinion...

    Question on 9V batteries

    I have a Fisher CZ21 and am wondering if there are any 9 volt rechargables out there that will be OK to use in the detector. Sorry if this question has already been answered, but I am looking for recommendations from the seasoned users of this CZ21. Paul (MA)

    ground penetration with the Excal

    My question is, in the disc mode the signal that the coil puts out is shaped like a cylinder. When you switch to all metal (pinpoint) mode, does the signal that goes into the ground remain cylinder shaped, OR does it go to cone shape. Probably a pretty weird question, but I was curious...

    Swapping out the Koss

    Thought I would post this here on the Excal forum before going to the buy/sell forum. I am swapping out my Yellow Koss newer style phones, Do any of you Excal guys out there want to buy the Yellow ones. They will already have the ikelite connector on them and will be ready to swap out...

    beaten to death subject batteries for the Excal

    I had an idea that I needed to bounce off someone, suppose I wanted to discharge my excal battery so that it would have a full charge for each trip out. I have the nicads and was thinking about using something that draws 9 volts from a DC power source (like one of those PC cooling fans). My...

    Excal Headphones

    This may have been addressed before, It looks like the new headphones of the EXCAL are yellow?? Does anyone know if they are different than the blue ones that came with the excal. Also, are their any mods done at the factory since the Excal came out (recently)? Thanks Paul(MA)

    Expert advice needed

    Has anyone used the Tesoro Vaquero in a salt water environment? I am wondering how it performs in wet salt / dry sand. I know they are VLF and that VLF doesnt do great in those kinds of places, but I guess I am looking for information from someone who actually uses their Vaquero in those...

    garrett old timer

    I have a garrett Freedom2(7&11"coils) that I got in a trade, is there any interest in this detector. Got it for the wife and it a bit too heavy for her. I am looking to swap it out for something much lighter. Tesoro compadre, silver or other lightweight machine suitable for a grandkid, or a...
