    Check mark, "X" or leave blank? Does it make a difference?

    The manual doesn't really state what is happening when the categories are checked (accepted) or left blank... Apparently others have had this question too. I called the customer service people at Minelab and was told that to lessen the threshold "blanking" after a target is detected, I should...

    How consistent /stable can one expect the signal to be ?

    Still learning the SE... On deep individual signals, how consistent a reading can one expect the explorer to deliver? For example on a deep dime or penny (6" PLUS), will the digital read out "lock on" to some degree when passing the coil over the target? Also, if the target is next to some...

    Sensitivity vs. Depth? deep quarter example

    Finally got out with the SE. I kept the sensitivity on 'auto' set at a level of 25...very smooth tone. Just for fun, I tried the manual setting at the same level. Noticed a bit more "clutter" in the threshold, but not distracting. I got a deep, repeatable consistent signal and recovered a very...

    Response mode preference?

    Anyone use a response mode other than "Normal" on the SE? Have you noticed any appreciable advantages to doing so? Knipper

    Response modes ?

    I don't see a lot written about these in the forum...Normal, Long, Smooth and Pitch Hold. That's what they're called with the SE, but I understand the same modes are called something else with earlier Explorer models. In a previous post I had speculated about how this might affect sweep speed...

    Reading some old posts about SE and....

    It seems that if anyone is going to offer criticism on the SE, it would be in the weight/balance dept or the screen glare. I cut my teeth on the old "lunch box" detectors (Garrett ADS master hunter, ADS Ground Hogs etc.) Of course, we started with the 7" coil but were soon using the 10, 12 and...

    Is there a difference?

    I was wondering, having acquired a new SE just in time for cold temps, if there is a difference between accepting a discrimination setting or just leaving it blank. For example, the factory setting is "coins" with no check mark next to that catagory in the settings. So, I'm asking if any have...

    Audio 1 setting vs new terminology with SE

    Is anyone on the forum able to correlate the old "audio 1" term with the new descriptions for the modes in the SE? As near as I can tell, the old "audio 1" is equivalent to the "long" mode. There is also the smooth mode (which is described as a 'filtered long') and pitch hold. I tried all of...

    New Explorer SE

    Though I'm not new to detecting, (started in 1976), I am new to Minelab's. I just acquired a new Explorer SE. (First Minelab ever) I have read some of the comments here about difficulties encountered by some other owners. Having had no other previous Explorer model with which to compare the...
