    Todays hunt

    Hi all, I got out for about an hour today. Weather was great mid 70s. I was using my MXT with my new 6" DD Excelerator coil.Hunt was cut short because of a toothache. They always happen on the weekend when the dentists office is closed. I recovered a couple of bucks in clad, a couple of cheap...

    Interesting find today

I was using my White's MXT with my new Excelerator 4.5x7 DD search coil. While my husband was hunting all...

    A little of this and a little of that

    These are some of my finds that I have dug since I began field testing the Excelerator 6" DD search coil on my MXT. Not bad considering the cold weather, which has been mixed with snow and rain. I have used the coil a lot recently and I am quite pleased with its performance. It has good...

    Rocker sifter

    I am looking for plans to make a rocker sifter. If anybody has one please let me know or if you know where I can go to find the plans. I can build one without plans, but I would like to see ones that are available. Thanks and HH Dennis in Idaho

    Hey Bavaria Mike

    Kellyco got the 10.5 coils in for the XT-70 and they let me know that mine is in the mail. I can't hardly wait to get it. I have read all your posts where you were using the coil and based on that I ordered the coil. I was told that a small coil may be made available in late spring which would...

    Small coil for X-70

    Has anybody heard when Minelab will come out with a small coil for the X-70. I have heard rumors of one being available in early 2007. I have contacted Minelab but they won't say. I would give them all three of my stock coils for one small (6" DD 7.5khz) coil. HH Dennis in Idaho

    Spooky grade school finds

    I was hunting an elementary school play ground yesterday and found all three of these. The live 9MM round was just under the surface, but the other two were laying in plain view. All to often I find spent bullets and shell casings at local parks but it is not often I find them in elementary...

    Warm weather in Idaho

    It was a perfect day for metal detecting. I loaded up my favorite hunting partner, my wife, and the dog and away we went. Temps were around 60+ and the sun was shining. We hunted for about 4 or 5 hours and had a great time. My wife was using her MXT with the 4.5 X 7 Excelerator search coil and I...

    Todays hunt

    Today the sun shined and the ground was thawed enough for another hunt. After being couped up for the last couple of months it was great to get out and get some exercise and fresh air. I Hunted for about 4.5 hours and I was using my MXTs new 6" Excelerator search coil. I dug a fair amount of...

    Excelerator 6" Pro DD Search coil

    Today for the first time in what seems like months that the ground was not frozen harder than a rock and I got a chance to swing my Excelerator 6" Pro DD search coil. I was only able to hunt for about an hour before my fingers froze, but I got some insight on this coil. I found that it pinpoints...

    4.5x7 Excelerator search coil

    Hello, I am not steelheadfever, I am his better half Bonnie and I wanted to tell you about my new 4.5x7 Excelerator search coil I just got through JW at Kellyco. When I received the coil I wanted to go right out and hunt a park to try the coil out, but the ground in our area was frozen and...

    10" DD Excelerator search coil

    Recently I had a chance to use my new 10" DD Excelerator search coil, that I got from Kellyco. I put it on my MXT, and using the coin mode off I went. It did not take long to begin locating targets to dig. During the next few days I was able to log about 20 hrs using the 10" coil. Most of the...

    Answer from Minelab

    I emailed Minelab to find out if there was any plans for a small coil for my X-70. Guess what? I was advised to keep checking Minelabs website, that when and IF one is made it will be posted there. I expected as much. I like my X-70 and it has a lot of potential but without a small coil it is...

    Last couple of hunts

    It has really been slow on this forum so I guess I will post a few keepers that I have recently found using my MXT equipped with the Excelerator 4.5 X 7 coil. I know there are a lot of you out there making some good finds and for one reason or another you are not posting them for all to see...

    X-TERRA 70

    When I first got my X-70 I took it out for its first hunt, and let me tell you that after that hunt, I was ready to slam it big time on the forum. I am not a newbie to detecting as I have been involved in the hobby for over 20 years, but I am a newbie with the X-70. I thought I could skim thru...
