    Should I Get A 10"x12" SEF?

    I now have a 4.5"x7" Xcelerator, a Minelab 8" Slimline Tornado and the stock 11" coils for my E-Trac. I have been playing with the idea of getting a 10"x12" SEF as well but I can't make up my mind. For those that have one of these, would you recommend me adding one to my arsenal or do you think...

    Got A Minelab 8" Coil and Lesche Sampson Shovel Today

    So I went to my local MD shop today to pick up my Lesche Sampson shovel today and ended up also taking home a Minelab 8" coil. I already have a 4.5"x7" DD Xcelerator coil but I have been wondering about the 8" for some time now. For those of you that have used the 8" coil, what do you think? If...

    Returned A Lost Ring Today!

    I joined theringfinders.com a week ago so that I could give back to this hobby. Today I received my first call and was asked to come out to a cabin an hour away from my place where a wife had dropped her husbands $5,000 platinum wedding ring off their dock. I drove out there and managed to...

    ET and Extreme Humidity?

    I wanted to go on an evening hunt tonight but after 10 minutes into hunting I was soaking wet due to the humidity here in Minnesota. I also quit hunting because I was not sure how well the ET would hold up to the humidity and I obviously didn't want to break it. Does someone on here know how...

    Got A Sunray X-1 In-Line Probe Today!

    Hi Everyone, I wanted to thank everyone who replied to my post about the Sunray Probe vs. Garrett ProPointer. I went to my local MD shop today and purchased the Sunray In-Line probe. There were just too many positive comments about this piece of kit to not try one. I mounted it on my ET and in...

    ProPointer Vs. Sunray In-line probe?

    Hi Everyone, I am currently using ProPointers (2 of them), one mounted to each my Se Pro and my ET. I have been thinking about trying an x1 inline probe on my ET. From those of you that have tried the inline probes and the propointer, which do you prefer? I have heard mixed things form people. I...

    Pull Tabs:rant:

    I went on a 4 hour hunt today at a park that I had never been to. I had high hopes for this outing but I ended up spending the day digging one pull tab after another. Boy do these numbers vary. Every one that I pulled had different numbers but all sounded like good targets. I ended up digging...

    New E-Trac, First Impressions:jump:

    So I have been playing with my new ET for the past couple of days and I have to say, it is ABSOLUTELY AWESOME. I couldn't agree more with the comments that the ET is not a glorified Explorer. This machine is completely different. I thought it would take a while to learn the new menu/setup, but...

    Is the emulator designer/creator/programmer on this forum?

    If so, it would be really cool if the emulator would have a button that "masks" the target below so that we can train our ears. We can then "guess" what the target is and click to button to reveal if we were correct. I think this would greatly improve the emulator as I feel it is too easy to see...

    Darn, I cracked today.......

    and bought an E-Trac. I actually only went to my local MD shop to check if he had a different coil to try on my Se Pro, but by the time I left, I had a brand new E-Trac. I said I was going to wait and see how good/bad the customer service was for my Se Pro, but when I saw it today, I just had to...

    Found the problem with my Se Pro today....

    I attached my 4.5x7 coil today and all my previous problems with instability/false erratic readings have gone away. I then tried my stock Pro coil again and the machine went crazy. Safe to assume that I just have one of those few "bad" coils. Just thought I would give you an update as so many of...

    Cell phones, do they interfere?

    I usually hunt with my phone in my back pocket. Have any of you noticed any interference while carrying a cell phone or is this fine? Thank you. -Marc

    I hate to always post negative...

    comments on this forum. I am not a negative operator by any means but my Se Pro is driving me crazy. If you read any of my posts on the excalibur forum, I have nothing but good things to say there (with the exception of my previous stolen excal). I went out for another 5 hour hut today and had...

    Explorer Se Pro Coil Upgrade???

    If you could get one coil, which would it be? I know there are many sides to this question but I have tried a few coils and for those that are new and wanting to try something new/different, which coil would you experienced users choose? I like the stock coil but I have met so many other Se Pro...

    Got My Anderson Carbon Fiber Straight Shaft Today

    So, The title says it all. I did receive my new Anderson Carbon Fiber straight shaft today. I spent an 8 hour day, the other day, with my replacement excal 2 ad my arm/shoulder was killing me using the stock shaft. I contacted kellyco and ordered another straight shaft and decided to try the...

    Darn:rage:: Excalibur vs. Explorer Se Pro

    I just had to ask if anyone else on here felt this way. I have been using my excalbur 2 for land hunting lately as my best friend has been coming hunting with me and the Se Pro seemed better suited for a newb to use. Yesterday, however, he asked me to check signals for him frequently and I have...

    Excal Coil Made A "Bad??" Sound Today

    This evening I finally got my Excal out to put it back together after a long winter in its minelab carrying case in my closet. However, when I tried to mount the coil on the lower shaft, I noticed that the opening on the coil seemed to have tightened up A LOT and it was really hard to push the...

    Got A Stealth Sunspot Scoop Today

    Hi Everyone, Just thought I would share. I went to my local metal detector shop in Minneapolis today and saw the stealth sunspot scoop (the bigger one) standing against the wall. I was sold INSTANTLY. The owner of the shop even took a 45% trade on my 709 scoop that I got from Kellyco a year...

    Explorer Se Pro Coil Question

    Hi Everyone, I have a stock Se Pro Butterfly coil and I also purchased a small DD Excellerator coil from Kellyco the day I bought my Se Pro from them. I have only put the DD Excellerator coil on one time because I don't know the answer to the following question: When I put the smaller coil on...

    Anyone in the Twin Cities MN area looking for a hunting buddy?

    I live on Lake Calhoun. I scuba detect the local beaches and land detect local spots. If you are in the area shoot me a message and hopefully we can get together.
