    Questions for the group

    It has been a few years since I kept up with the Minelab Explorers. I currently own a Minelab Explorer XS and also have one for a spare. I went to the Minelab web site and saw they no longer list the Explorer detectors - do they no longer make an Explorer or is the CTX 3030 the replacement for...

    a little bit of out of town detecting

    I was attending a class for 3 days that ran from 8:30 to 4:30 every day with the potential of getting out early every day (which we did). The class was about 60 miles away from home and I knew there were some old parks in that city so I loaded my detector and a change of clothes in the back of...

    Thanks alot guys - now I have to completely change my hearing

    I was reading about Fast and Deep on here earlier today and decided to turn them both off as per Bryce, captn_se and dewcon. Sounded like somebody handed me a completely new detector. I have an Explorer XS that's old, old, old, I went to a pounded park here in my little town and in 90 minutes...

    first 1800's coin of the year

    I went to a local park this evening and pulled out a very worn shield nickel. Can't read the date. Not much else to speak of, but I'm off and running.

    fill your holes!!

    Way back in the day when the Explorer XS made its debut there was a group of, what I called it then, "Explorer locusts" that would swoop into a town (6, 8, 10 of them), pick all of the parks clean, and then head to the next little town around Illinois. One of the problems with them folks was...

    God be praised!

    I got a letter form Jesse yesterday and it has been a long time since I've seen someone on fire for Jesus as he is. His whole letter was full of scripture and just oozed with joy and happiness. Hard to believe he's in jail. He has been introduced to another Christian that is in jail due to drug...

    Jesse is now a state trustee at the county jail. Has his own cell and he works in the laundry. He has access to food and a microwave and has some freedom to do things. Jesse found out that there is another warrant pending in another county for a fifth and final robbery commited there. He...

    detecting philosophies

    As I read through the various forums, threads and posts I have to laugh at folks and what they whine and complain about. In general, do you have a "philosophy" that gets you through you detecting day? Like "one piece of silver and I'll be happy" or "just one wheaty and I'll be satified with...

    question for those who use IM -16 and Ferrous

    In ferrous tones the lower right hand corner where junk falls also gives a tone similar to the upper right corner where coins fall. How do you distinguish between the two while scanning? Seems when every alluminum can piece and pull tab gets scanned it sounds like a good coin - what do you set...

    Explorer has audio issues

    My Explorer XS has issues with the audio going up and down. One problem I see is my 1/8" audio jack is loose. I don't know if that is the problem, but has anyone ever taken the Explorer apart and replaced it with better wiring and a 1/4" jack? Does anyone have pictures of an Explorer being...

    Hello to all

    Hi, I am detectorguy. I've been detecting since '86 and have been a Christian since '84. I've posted a few times here, but felt it was time to "step up to the plate" and introduce myself. I have 4 boys and been married for going on thirty years. Two of my boys are old enough to be out on...

    I want to thank the local members of my detector club

    In our club there are three Explorer users - two of them live outside of the area by about 40 to 50 miles so they rarely come to town to "poach" :) I want to thank the local members for loving your Whites machines (and Fishers) so much that you will never change to something else. That love...
