    Bent Detector Stand

    Does anyone have any experience with repairing/straightening a bent Explorer (SE) stand? I searched the archives and didn't find any help on this subject. While in a hurry to get out of the house in socked feet, I slipped on some carpeted stairs while also carrying my SE, and landed on top of...

    Headed for Home After Finding This One!

    Hello, All. This is my first attempt at posting with pics, so hopefully this works. Yesterday I made my first attempt at hunting for CW relics in the area where Custer and Lee were to have had encampments. On a ridge where a hospital was built in the past, I hunted between the parking lot and...

    Help With Carrying Explorer on Airliner

    I would like to take my detector with me on my next flight, instead of a multi-thousand mile road trip in order to bring it. Any information you all could provide on carrying an Explorer on a jet under the current rules/climate would be greatly appreciated, as well as your opinions on whether...

    Calling All Explorer Users

    Hello, All - This is my first post to this forum, since up to this point, I have only used my Explorer SE for coinshooting. But while hunting an old (1875) park, I lucked into finding some shot and possibly other small relics from the Civil War. It turns out the area had encampments under...

    Dipping the Toes in the Deep End

    This weekend I had some spare time, and made my first attempt at moving away from the preset programs, and over to the Dark Side, or all metal. While attempting to input all the options into a saved program (with the standard coil on the ground, the SE leaning against me), the unit beeped...

    Maiden Voyage with the SE Yields Silver

    Hello All from Austin, Texas - A week after purchasing my new SE, I finally had some free time and ventured out into an approximately 105 degree heat index to detect an elementary school that was built in 1951. I had decided to follow the advice I had read here, and began my first hunt with...

    SE vs DFX300 vs CZ-3D

    Hello, all - I currently own an Eagle Spectrum, and other than a dead backlight ($80 to replace the display), it has served me well for the last 10 years or so. Still, I would like to upgrade to the amazing depth that the current generation of MDs can achieve. The three detectors above cost...

    SE vs DFX300 vs CZ-3D

    Hello, all - I am contemplating a purchase between the three units above, and would appreciate any input that you might be able to provide to assist my decision. At this level of detector, it is quite difficult to differentiate between the manufacturers/units, so you may be aware of an...

    SE vs DFX300 vs CZ-3D

    Hello, all - This is my first post on this website after observing the posts for a week or so. I have been MDing on and off for approximately 35 years, and have owned so far Garrett, Compass, and White's equipment. My current unit, the White's Eagle Spectrum, has served me well for about 10...
