    Strange SE PRO behavior

    While hunting in my favorite 40 acre (empty) field yesterday, I got a good hit in an area that SHOULD produce something. My doo-hicky locked hard in right upper corner, and would not unlock from there when I moved away. I turned my machine off, tried again, with the same result- a lock that was...

    Four more wheaties, but no

    Silver of any sort, and no nickels. That may be because I don't recognize the nickel range clearly yet. Also, one Memorial penny just confuse everything. Got to keep on plugging because that's how you find things. It feels great to be out in the wind and sun... Chuck Smith

    Bryce's coin setting

    I have had my Explorer SE Pro for a while now, and decided to try something other than the original settings. I decided to try Bryce's coin settings as described in Andy Sabisch's book on the explorer/etrac. Not a wild setting, probably good for someone just past the beginning stages of learning...

    want to trade Explorer sepro and $ for E-trac

    My SE Pro is less than 2 months old and in great shape. It is the stock SE-Pro and I would like to trade up, preferably for an also semi-brand new E-Trac in great shape. I am willing to pay some $ difference, or, if you are a gun person, I have a M1 Garand in great shape. My older brother bought...

    M1 Garand in great shape

    I have a M1 Garand that came from the Civilian Marsmanship Program. Condition is good to excellent. I can get a better idea of its real condition, etc, by taking it to a local gunsmith. I would like to get somewhere in the neighborhood of $900 for it. Wrte for more info. Chuck Smith

    Dumb question about saving programs

    I know that the manual and Sabisch both answer this, but it still escapes me. Let's say that I change my settings to one of those in the Sabisch book, (IE Bryce's coin killing settings) how do I then save it so as to able to toggle to it quickly? Won't you help this poor old gray headed, memory...

    Wanted: Garrett pinpointer; new offer/deal

    I simply cannot come up with the cost of a new Garrett pinpointer. So here is a new option: I will trade my Deterpro pinpointer plus up to $40.00 for a Garrett pinpointer in good shape. Nothing at all wrong with the Detectorpro unit, but I NEED the vibrator that the Garrett has because of...

    Detectorpro pistol probe for trade

    Bought new, used less than 12 times, good shape, works well. I need a pinpointer that vibrates, cause I can't be pulling my headphones off all the time. Would prefer Garret or vibraprobe. Comes with holster.

    COINS!!!

    I'm an old timer to MDing, but fairly new to the Explorer, and having to learn it. First day out, little confused, 1 clad dime. Next time out, 3 quarters, 1 dime, 1 penny, all clad. But I can see it all coming together. This machine is a coin sucking device in the pre-set coin mode. A little...

    Fe and Con numbers and some things they represent?

    Where can I find something that lists likely fe/con numbers and combinations and what they represent, IE coins, bullets, etc. I am sure that it will not be perfect, as there is likely some overlap of numbers, but just a place to start would be nice. Thanks ahead of time, Chuck Smith St...

    WTB: Sun-Ray x8 coil for explorer

    Doesn't have to be mint clean, just a good every day user type of X8 coil. I have a Lesche red-handled digger if that might help in a trade situation. cdsmith46@gmail.com

    Ancient history- ca 1990's

    I graduated from seminary in 1990 and moved back to my neck of the Louisiana woods. I was introduced to M/Ding by friends who put me in touch with a great local dealer who made me a proud owner of a Fisher 1266. Great machine, but I never got my settings right. With some locational help, I did...

    E-Trac vs SE PRO

    Looks like I may soon be the owner of an E-Trac, though I started out wanting an SE-Pro because of price. I have a great trade offer in the deal, but I want to know if the E-Trac is as powerful as the SE-PRO. I am before all things a relic nut, with second place going to coins. Any word...

    Back to beeping again...

    Temps here in Southeast Louisiana have been beastly, with highs in the low 100's or high 90's. Likewise,. humidity to drain your very soul away. Ah, but yesterday- lows in the mid 50's, highs in the mid 70's, weather to die for. Loaded up the Sov GT and off to a high school about 15 miles away...
