    Chest mounting Excal?

    Does anybody chest-mount their excal? I've tended to chest-mount control boxes from other detectors I've used and was wondering if anyone had a good way to do this with the excal...thanks, Ray Hogan in Waco, TX.

    Looking for a coil cover...

    Does anyone know of a "solid bottom" coil cover that would fit the 12.5 imaging coil? Thanks, Ray.

    OK I did it ! New Spectra shipped today

    Hey Joe, my local dealer called me yesterday to say he had two new Visions, and if I was interested. Well, I went right over and picked one up. I mention it because they were just shipped to this dealer and they are still "Visions". Guess Whites is going to use up their stock of Vision decals...

    Sizing feature

    Wondered how well the sizing feature was working and to what depth it appears to remain accurate?

    Got my new Etrac

    Etrac just arrived. Will give it a good testing this weekend. I've got an interesting site at a nearby lake used mainly for fishing. It's a few feet low and I hunted the shore last weekend. Dug 35 to 40 large lead sinkers, most at 4 ounces or more. Did manage to pull out two nice silver...

    New E-Trac

    Well, for the most part, it was this forum that finally wore me down enough to order a new E-Trac, which I did this morning. Now my question, which has probably been addressed countless times before. As far as smaller EXcelerator coils .... I'm debating between the 6" round or the 4.5x7"...

    SE vs E-trac

    I've been reading all the comments lately since I've been trying to decide which detector to buy. Seems from what I've read, the Explorer SE probably has the best ID...would that be right? I'm not trying to stir things up, just trying to choose the best detector for my type of hunting as I'm...

    Sunray Coil...and Jim Yates

    How do the Sunray coils perform with the new Etrac? For Jim Yates....did you notice a difference with the Etrac once you decided to keep it and put the factory coil on it as compared to early on when you had an older Explorer coil on it? Thanks in advance, Ray Hogan, Waco, TX.

    Coil "true" sizes

    What are the "true" sizes of the 8 and 10 inch Minelab coils? Thanks, Ray Hogan in Waco, TX

    First hunt with SE

    Well, I had no problem finding and recovering targets...although relatively shallow...3-4 inches. Here's a problem I had. Whenever I found a target, I checked it from several directions. The tones would change but not the numbers on the screen or the crosshairs position. That is until I...

    Okay, took the plunge and got a new SE today...

    Put it together and went out to my "limited" test garden. The only setting I changed was to go from Conduct to Ferrous sounds (that just makes more sense to me). Quite a different beast from what I'm used to. Went back and forth between a silver dime and a modern nickel. Now while on the...

    8" coils...

    anybody done a head-to-head comparison between the Minelab 8" slimline Tornado and the Sun Ray S-8 (Sovereign)? And something I've always wondered, just to generate opinions...how can a somewhat smaller and more limited financially, I would guess (please don't take this wrong Ralph..."I love you...

    Rain Cover Question

    Sorry if this has been asked before and I missed it. Do you have to remove the knobs to install the weather covers? If so, do they just slip off and on or what? Thanks, Ray in Waco, TX.

    Hypothetical Sov situation...

    Okay, you're on an old site with potential for deep silver. You're sloooowwly covering ground when suddenly you hear a faint, somewhat mid-like tone with the Sov, that is repeatable. You carefully center the target...and the tone is trying to climb. You dig out a six-inch deep and...

    Compression Rings...

    Which brand of detector shaft compression ring is easiest to use on a homemade straight shaft? I suspect it would be one that has a round penetration rather than a square one...allowing for the drilling of a round hole instead of somehow cutting a square one. Thanks for any help, Ray.

    Second Explorer Outing

    Well, did better today. Got sixteen wheats, four memorials, one newer nickel and one newer dime in about and hour and a half. The wheats were two to mostly four or five inches deep...one might have been closer to seven inches deep. I'm pretty sure I would have gotten them with any of my other...
