    Sunny day

    I hit the beach and was hopint got get wet..... but it was just nasty out there. Headed back to the Jeep and got the Explorer to do a few hours of sand hunting. The sea weed was everywhere and for some reason the SE didnt care much for it and would false a bit going over it. Did a rather...

    Xcal fix

    Im not a fan of the headphones on the Xcal at all. But.... with a warranty im opting not to do any mods. I did find a simple fix to those darn yellow headphones always slipping down my head. It seems i am always adjusting them. So what i did was add a large rubber band on both sides...

    Coil covers are REQUIRED on Xcals

    Ive sent a couple of messages to ML reference my coil cover that has split down the side after about 4 months. My main concern was if i dont replace the cover how would i stand on my warranty if i didnt get a new one. Obviously the coil will soon go the same way as the cover. They said epoxy was...

    Dry beach hunts

    The last couple of days have been really windy and kicking up the waves so i didnt go in the water. Today it was like 35 mph with 7 ft waves. So i used the Exp SE just to see if the dry sand hunters was leaving anything. It was pretty picked over in the dry ..... bottle caps, pull tabs, gum...

    Couple of keepers from the weeks hunt

I tested the diamond on the big ring and they are real... the inside says it they total .3K and its 10K heavy. The band is 18K and almost as heavy...

    Couple of nice beach finds

    Oops posted this in the Exp classroom, my bad. Ive not been finding much with the Xcal in the water in the past week. Had a couple of high waves days so i grabbed the SE and decided to hit an out of the way beach. I started picking up some clad, ended with about $3, so this looked like a place...

    threshold setting

    Ive seen a few posts on setting the threshold for the pitch hold. One was mentioned a method of turning down the sensitivity, turn on the detector in PP, set the sensitivity then switch over to disc. Next the old just set the sensitivity and disc then turn it on..... set and leave. Next...

    Cool beach hunt

    The water was just unhuntable today so i grabbed the SE to do some dry/wet sand hunting. Got to a small beach i hunt often and there were 2 guys with detectors leaving and 2 more out there swinging. I almost left but said what the heck there still has to be something for me left. So i did...

    Xcal and Sov

    Im starting to really enjoy the Xcal and when i do a little dry sand hunting my Exp SE seems chattery to me now. I was wondering ..... is the SOV as quiet to run on the wet and dry sand as the Xcal? Am i gaining anything over the Xcal.... like tweaking or depth? Dew

    Epoxy or bed liner spray

    I recently lost a coil cover.... which i might add ML is sending me. But out of the conversation i asked about alternatives like epoxy and bed liner spray and would they affect the warranty. Initially it was a no problem..... then i got this reply: Upon further consultation the bedliner...

    Lost coil cover

    Went out at the low tide to see what the waves and wind was doing. Still kicking beyond the main sand dune. It looked a little dangerous and the lifeguard had a yellow flag. The waves really had an under tow to them. Spent about an hour to find out the sand had moved to the front of the...

    Sensitivity setting

    Dumb question. Ive been using both PP and disc for hunting. Does most of you run full sensitivity in PP? Since unlike ID mode PP is not affected by falsing and doesnt require as much to break the threshold because of filtering. But then in reverse disc we switch back to ID mode...

    SE beach hunt

    Ive been hunting in the water for the past 3 months but the water has been a little ruff. So i grabbed the SE and decided to do a little wet and dry sand hunting on one of the local beaches. There are a lot of hunters now days on the beaches with the price of gold so it was pretty quiet...

    Chargers

    Maybe some of you electronic gurus can help me out here. I have a couple of chargers that go to a fishing knife one for AC the other for DC. The AC one is a 9VDC at 1 A. The one that came with the Xcal is a 14.3 VDC at 60 MA. It fits perfectly what kind of problem would i run into using...
