    Sensitivity Auto and Thin Gold Rings

    Two more questions and thanks so much so far. I see suggestions are for sensitivity at auto? This is more advisable then around 6? Also, I set up a test area with rings, junk and coins. I used one of my wife's real old thin gold rings, and it sounded almost exactly like the bottle cap. I've seen...

    Excal or Beach Hunter for Cape

    I'm visiting my old stomping grounds later in the summer on the Cape. I do about 50% wet sand there and 50% in water as many of the beaches the surf is too big to get in the water. I only can bring one detector. I was going to go with the Excal 2, but the Beach Hunter does seem to shine in wet...

    Cape Cod Vacation

    I grew up on the Cape for 25 years. Unfortunately I wasn't into detecting at the time, but I go once or twice a year to visit my mom. Everyone is right about the National Seashore, but there are so many other beaches to hit, it's not a big deal. I always find a few rings when I visit. Don't...

    Excaliber 2 and coins

    Hi there. I've had my Excal about a month. Very different from the Beach Hunter. Just wondering if I could be missing coins with the Excal. Usually the beach I go to always gives up change, but I've only gotten one quarter with the Excal. I did pick up a nice 14 ct women's ring with the Excal...

    Hi everyone. Been getting used to the Excaliber 2 since buying it 3 weeks back. I got a 14 ct womens ring a few days ago! Question. I've only gotten 1 coin so far in 4 hunts. This beach usually gives up lots of coins every hunt, at least when I was using the Beach Hunter. Am I missing coins...

    Fixing Beach hunter 300

    Just wondering if people thought I should fix my Beach Hunter 300. I found out it's only 100 bucks to fix. Will it be a good addition to my Excal 2, or fix it and sell it? Des in Buffalo

    Couple of Questions

    Hi everyone. My Beach Hunter ID control box was full of water this morning when I hit the beach, so I've decided to buy a new Excaliber 2. Suggestions on the best place? I was going to go with Kelly Co. Also, is it easier now to get these repaired, or do you still have to send them to Australia...

    $ 750.00 What machine???

    If I don't sell my beach hunter ID, any suggestions as a comlementary machine that might run me 750, new or used? I hunt in Lake Erie, lots of junk, bottle caps, metal etc. Or would I be smart to keep saving, and buy the Excal 2? Suggestions? Desmond in Buffalo

Whites provided a plastic fiber glass type of thing but it snapped off the first day I used it. Even if I tighten the screws as much as possibe on the coil, still kind of flaps around, which...
