    I have a problem, I think, with the mod I made to my Excal and the WOT coil...

    I installed the waterproof connectors to change coils so I could use my WOT and the regular coil. But, when I use the WOT in the water it falses all over the place. The threshold goes up and down constantly. On dry sand, it is fine. The regular coil works as it should in water and out. So any...

    I attached water proof connectors to my Excal to use my WOT and I have a question

    When I use the WOT in the water I get a lot of falsing like when a wave comes over the coil, much like a PI. I get a threshold but it fluctuates up and down the scale. If I use the regular coil it is quiet except for the threshold. I have the older version Excal so I had to wire it as per...

    I have a question about the Etrac pinpoint. I have an XS and love the

    sound I get when I find a deep target and try to pinpoint. It has a wobble to it rather than a constant sound. Does the Etrac do the same in pinpoint?

    What to do? Posted on the PI forum. Should I fix my older Whites PI for $245 or sell it for parts.

    They are going to replace the pots, board, and case. It will then have a one year old weighted coil and the guts and case will be new. Basically a new machine. Do I fix it and can I recoup my $245 if I sell it. I already own a DF and an Excal. I do not want 3 water machines.

    I have a question about the XS and numbers. I always use the crosshairs but was wondering if it would be worth it to use the

    numbers like they do with the other explorers. Those of you that use the ET for example cite finding good coins at the 36 to 46 number. Although the XS doesn't have the FE number it still has the same CO number. What do you think?

    I bought a used 5"DD coil this winter and used it for the first time on some wet ground. It hit

    the targets pretty strong but lacked depth. I was getting depth readings of 9" and thought oboy, looks like a good coil. All targets were reading 6 inches deeper than they actually were. so the 9 inch target was only 3 inches deep. this happened for about an hour before I switched back to the...

    I have not used my Explorer XS for over a year because

    I bought a Fisher F75. I have tried it and was not impressed as so many of other F75 useres rave about this machine. True, it's light and fast, but it picks up so many targets, it can drive you nuts in a trashy ares. So I got out the old XS and tried a comparison. I used the big old heavy 10.5...

    My F75 reads 5 inches on shallow targets no matter...

    What depth they are. If the target is 1 inch, it reads 5 inches, if it is 2 inches it reads 5 inches etc, etc., If it is deeper than 5 inches it reads ok. I don't like the fact that all shallow targets are 5 inches because I sometimes want to eliminate memorial cents and can't because of this...

    X-Terra 70 and different frequency coils. I don't understand

    I have been considering getting the X-Terra 70 but don't understand the need for different coils for different frequencies. I currently have an Explorer XS and get all those frequencies in one coil and one detector. With the X70 I would have to have more coils to change frequencies. And what to...

    nickels and the 3D

    While running in enhanced mode I get a lot of nickel signals that turn out to be pull tabs. I started swithcing to salt when I get a nickel signal to see where that goes and it usually goes to pulltab. Am I doing the right thing or am I missing nickels. Is this normal for the 3D? I think there...

    New owner of CZ3D has a question on threshold and deep hits...

    When I go to adjust my ground balance and turn the sensitivity up to here the threshold hum I don't get a hum as much as a chattering sound. And shallow coins also give a sharp, short clikcing sound. Is this normal?

    New to Fisher, 3D depth

    I received my 3D the other day and went to my favorite old park. I hunted about 3 hours and didn't find anything but zincs and pulltabs. Coins there are usually 6 to 12 inches deep. When I use my explorer I usually pull out at least a few wheaties or an indian head. So I went to another park...
