    Hello again Findmall!

    It's been a loooong time since I've been here. A hectic work schedule and other junk has kept me away from detecting for a few years. As soon as the ground thaws out here in W. Michigan I plan on getting back out with a vengeance! See you all soon and HH!

    6x8 and 10x12 SEF coils on an Explorer II........Thoughts???

    Ok I read bryce's tests on the SEF coils. Great job on having them all in one grouping bryce! :thumbup: I just came into a little money from selling off a couple of extra detectors. While it is not enough to get my dream machine (E-Trac), it is sufficient to perform some major upgrading by...

    Explorer II Headphone Recommendations???

    Hey all, I recently acquired an Explorer II and was looking for a recommendation for some new headphones to hunt with when spring comes. I've been using the basic model Jolly Roger headphones from DetectorPro hunting with an Explorer XS. I like them but now I'm in a position to get some new...

    White's MXT for sale

    White's MXT for sale. New-style 950 coil, coil cover, and manual. I don't have original box :( The machine is nearly-new and has never been abused, knocked around, or left out in the rain. It also was never used without a coil cover. I got it new last year and only used it 3 or 4 times. I'm...

    Saw a new Fisher ad...kinda disappointed and concerned

    I just saw a new Fisher ad in the current issue of Lost Treasures. What I saw was basically a Teknetics T2 and some Bounty Hunter-looking machine that said "FISHER" on them. Now I haven't posted on here in awhile so maybe this has already been addressed and I missed it. If so, please feel free...

    No silver today again...but I declare it successful anyway

    Hit an old schoolhouse site that operated from the 1880's to the early '60s. It was torn down in '66 and there is absolutely no trace of it whatsoever. A lot of hunting in trees and scrub. I was there for about 2 hrs and found 5 IH's (1883, 1884, 1892, 1896, and 1902) and an 1882 Canadian LC...

    ID Edge vs. CZ-3D question

    Hey all......I'm looking at getting ANOTHER detector and am split between the Edge or 3D. I was wondering if the edge sounds off with high tones on IH's, Nickels, and other older coins in Old Coins mode the way a CZ-3D does in Enhanced Mode. I've used a CZ-5 and a -6a in the past and like them...

    Finally....1st silver of the year and VERY first gold ever!!! :)

    Got out today and happy that the rain stayed up in the clouds. Went to a few of my nearby hard-hammered spots. I got my 1st silver for the year ('59 Roosie, not Seated but I'll take it) along with a 1906 V Nickel, 14 Wheaties, a VFW Auxiliary pin, and a 4-H Pin. I went and switched to ferrous...

    FMDAC....Iraq Chapter...Members: 1

    Actually it's just one of my troops sweeping our project site before we moved our construction equipment onto it. I'm in the background behind him participating in the morning "meeting of the minds" and also helping to make a juicy mortar/RPG target for some lucky insurgent. The detector is an...

    HELP!!!!.......Where can I get a part?

    I know this forum is for Coin$trike, Edge, and Excel but there's more traffic herre than in the regular Fisher forum so I thought I'd post here. I need a discrimination control for a 1236-X2. Mine got bunged up somehow and turns funny. It's basically an all-metal machine right now. I called...

    Sunday's Finds

    Got out a little bit after work Sunday. I hit a firend's yard and a small park. I found an IH (1900) and 8 wheaties along with a good luck token. I also included a few more wheaties and another IH that I've had soaking in olive oil. The IH is another 1900 but the obverse is still pretty nasty so...

    First Hunt of 2006 & my meager finds

    Got off to a slow start today with the year's first hunt. The ground's a little frozen yet but I managed a 1917-S Wheatie and 3 memorials. It's supposed to be warmer Sunday so if it's not raining I'll try again HH, SgtSki

    ID Edge or CZ-3D????

    Hi all, I've been swinging an Explorer for the past 4 years. I like it and will not give it up but it's heavy and you have to work it slooooow. I have a 1236-X2 but need to send it off to get fixed but I'm looking for a 2nd detector to use for more "all-around" detecting. I like the CZ-3D...
