    EXP II Falsing with X-1 Probe installed

    I recently purchased a good used X-1 Probe. Worked well the first few times out, now my detector falses low tones when jiggled or swung. I suspect a worn wire somewhere within in the X-1 unit. It doesn't appear to be the probe itself. That works fine when activated. I've tried different coils...

    Sidewalk Tearout Nets Crusty Indian

    Discovered a sidewalk tearout in my hometown. So did a couple of other hunters. I was able to find this 186? Indian before having to leave. The place was so loaded with iron that I had to hunt all metal with ferrous tones. I'm going to go back tomorrow and see if I can find anything else. The...

    Explorer Instructional Videos

I can find all kinds of videos of people digging deep silver, but that isn't what I'm looking for. I want...

    Original Sovereign RF Shielding

    I am in the process of adding a jack for a remote PP mod to my Sovereign. I notice that it doesn't have any RF shielding like I see in pictures of the GT. I can get some copper tape that I think would work. If I add this to the inside of the box, would it benefit me at all?

    Any Success Hunting Lake Erie Beaches?

    Anyone here have any success hunting Lake Erie beaches or in the water? I'm more interested in water hunting.
