    Excalibur Operation

    Tried my new/used Excalibur a few times. I got a nice threshold and would start searching and suddenly the threshold tone would go to a deep growl. I think it saw iron. If I moved the coil towards my aluminum scoop, it would reset the tone to the nice high tone. I did find things with it and...

    Sand Scoop

    I built my own sand scoop and it works great in the water. Soon I'll post a picture of it. Just a brief question, or maybe 2. What is the best sand scoop to use when searching the DRY sand areas? I plan to search a lot of dry sand after a kite festival. (Might be a new or different kind of...

    Please Tell Me What You Think/Automatic Vs Manual

    Got frustrated with my SE and decided to go to the factory pr-sets as suggested here and in the manual. Got a nice stable threshold and started finding lots of newer coins and some junk jewelry (52 targets yesterday and 20 today). I found surface stuff and sometimes I would dig 6-7" for a...

    Excalibur and Batteries

    It's a whole new thing to me. I have the NiCads. It's 3 years old and I am not sure how they have been treated by the previous owners. Could be they won't work too long as they have acquired the NiCad memory affect. I looked at the battery pod and it seems with a couple of turns on a...

    Wow! Why Such a Long Coil Cord on the Excalibur?

    I just got a new/previously owned Excalibur 1000. In all my years of using MDrs I have never seen such a long cord from the electronics to the coil. If I were to stretch it out, I bet I could add two extra bottom shafts and I still would have cord remaining. I could be 7' 9" and be able to...

    Excal and EXP SE

    I have a Garrett Sea Hunter 550XL and a Fisher 1280X. I decided to go with Minelab for all the reasons one reads in the forums. I am making some progress learning what my new, to me, SE is trying to tell me. Found a used Excal on one of the forums and decided to 'upgrade my UW units by getting...

    New to the SE and.....

    After five trips out, I think I am beginning to know when their is something under the coil that I should dig. Previously operated a CZ7A-Pro and found silver at a school yard in the last few weeks. It seems as if I am not finding/hearing/ESPing or whatever needs to be done to find something...

    2 U/W Detectors + Questions

    I have a Garrett Sea Hunter 500 XL and all the things that came with it. It worked great in the FRESH water (I don't think it does well in the salt arena) but I am past the age where I will suit up in the wet suits, weights, etc. What would be a fair price if I were to move this to the...
