Explorer II, does yours do this?

[pgoupell]

If I hold my explorer II up in the air away from everything and gently shake it, it sounds off as if there was something passing under the detector coil.

I sent it to minelab a month ago and they returned it saying "no fault found".

Does yours do that if you shake it in the air?

Thanks.

If I was to hold it up in the air and shake it...it's hard to say what kind of crazy sounds it would sceam at me.

Sorry...couldn't resist

On a serius note...yes...every explorer I have ever had will do that.

And again...and I'm serious...sometimes it happens on a simple and common sweep of the ground.

It could be EMI ...sensitivity too high...or any number of things.

I would imagine if it was a loose connection somewhere that Minelab would have found it.

I do apologize for my comment...and didn't mean to be a jerk. I was just funnin' ya'

Mine does it, too. When I have my detector in one hand, and I'm vigorously digging with the other, that "shaking" of the detector is enough to cause it to sound off, continuously! (Usually it's a nice high tone, too! )
