    Pure Serendipity

    Usually, I don't post on two forums. But, this one was worthy. I had some time off this week so was out hunting pretty regularly. (I apologize in advance as I have several posts, but this one takes precedence and is out of order No sense combining them as each has it's own story and if you...

    Any Speculation?

    Since Minelab announced discontinuing the SE Explorer, which none of us can understand why. :shrug: Do you think they plan on reintroducing it or something similar with FBS-2 technology? Complete speculation on my part, but with the new FBS-2 technology available only for the CTX it makes one...

    8x6 SEF Excelerator/Detech Coil Nut

    I noticed while changing coils, the nut assembly on the SEF 8x6 coil wire does not completely lock down (meet the coil wire junction on the coil) over the coil as they do in other detector coils. I have tried twisting it as far as it will go (even with a wrench) and there is still a good-sized...

    Etrac/Explorer SE On Trashy Parks

    How well does the E-Series do with a small coil in trassssshhhy parks? (Just curious because I have another brand machine that is real good in trash). I recently did one with an 8x6 SEF and really scored no keepers---I was quite surprised. It was my first time taking it out and really buckling...

    Last Two Hunts

    Did two different ball fields the last two days out. The first was from the late 40's, and I have never pulled out anything old but a wheat cent there. Definitely pounded over the years and then some. However, we got some good rain and I did not have a ton of time to drive to one of my better...

    Running Out The Storm

    Went out Tuesday after being held inside by thunderstorms Sat. and Sun. eve. AS SOON as I got in the car it started to drizzle. I was like the heck with this--I am going coin hunting. So, I drove and kept an eye on the horizon. The place I wanted to go is a heavily used sports park that is...

    Last Wednesday's Hunt

    Got out last week I think only once. So hot and dry and then the rain came afterwards. I obtained permission to hunt a local fair grounds that was not so far of a drive, and decided to head down. Hunted for about an hour an was pulling up quarters fairly consistently, but I just did not like...

    Two Ringer

    Got out Sunday evening for a nice hunt along a sports field. The ground was moist after our brief rainfall so the plugs cut nice. Spent about 3 hours out, and came up with two silver rings. My second sterling Espo ring this month, and a .925 Italian silver band. The Espo ring was about 7 inches...

    Last Two Times Out

    The weather here in the Northeast has been DRY! So much so, I took a two week rest period from the hobby. Just did not want to leave a mess on the turf. I have too much respect for the caretakers, etc. Right before I took a hiatus I decided to try my luck on a small recreation area that was...

    Spectrum XLT

    Does White's still repair these or not? I know I read somewhere ..a long time ago...one of their units they did not repair because of a lack of replacement boards?

    Saturday Eve's Hunt

    Got out last Saturday for about 2 and half hours. I have been having luck at ball fields this year, so just decided to keep it up. I found a very small one that must have been a little league field at one time, and looked seldom used now. The bases were not even visible really, but could be...

    Tones On M6/MXT PRO

    Can anyone share/shed some light on the 7 tone ID system on the M6 and MXT PRO? Or any links to videos that describe them. We have been having discussions on the other forums about how these added tones maybe beneficial in target separation. Thanks for any help offered! :help:

    Out Babysitting--Making The Best Of It!

    Had to babysit my daughter Tuesday evening. Soooo....I said let's go out to a playground. Too nice of a day to stay inside 'ya know. :wink: We did not have alot of time, so I zoned in on the oldest play area near my home that is still in good shape. This one goes back to the early 50's. Didn't...

    Nickel Sniffin

    Went to a site in which I could never find any older coins. The area has had activity since the middle 40's, but apparently has been so hard hit I have only found one wheat cent in the past. Sooo, I started digging nickles. Got to say this is a GREAT nickel machine. I thought my CZ was hot on...

    Garrett ProPointer Question

    Hey all! My ProPointer has been buzzing lately on it's own after I probe a target sometimes. I will probe the hole and then it sometimes starts rattling buzzing audio. If I lift it back and hold it in the air away from the metal it still is going off. I have to turn it on and off to stop the...

    Short Hunt Coughs One Up

    Got out for a little over an hour Wednesday evening. Took the E to scrub a small field/park behind a baseball field. I arrived just as practice let out. Nothing but clad for an hour--and not surrpising, but hoped to find a deep silver dime on edge as the place was used since the 40's. My last...
