    EXCALIBUR DEPTH ???????

    Took out my new Excal II this weekend... Kinda disappointed in the depth, or lack of it! Tried several different settings including those recommended by CJC. Best I could get was 6". I was lead to believe it could find Quarters @ 17". I guess I'm wondering what I did wrong ? Charged the battery...

    how do you turn on ALL METAL ?

    Hey rcasio, I have not sent it in yet for the upgrade. What exactly does it do? I just heard about it the other day. Seems like every couple of months there is a new download, or improvement? Maybe I should wait for the next one and kill 2 birds with 1 stone. Steve

    how do you turn on ALL METAL ?

    Hey Ferd, Have you tried Mixed Mode pro? It combines aspects of both discrimination and all metal modes. My favorite program is Hi Pro. Anyway good luck Steve

    V-3 depth question

    I agree with rcasio44, the "on the fly" depth reading is almost always off. The pin point mode is what you need to go by. I have found the analyze mode to be pretty accurate too. Also some foil will read 5" even when right on the surface. And if it reads a quarter @ 0" and you dig down an inch...

    filters on the V3

    Mike, Maybe it's the ground out here in Southern California, But I get plenty of depth with all the coils I use, with the 5 filter slow sweep technique. the D2, Super 12 and my 5.3, I have dug dimes at 6-7" with the 5.3 and a bullet at around 9" with the Super 12. I have heard alot of good...

    filters on the V3

    Hey Neil, I always hunt in 5, nice and slow. And only come up if I have to. But I was wondering what is the difference with the "High" setting, compared to just 5,7.5 or 10? Thanks, Steve

    EXcelerator S.E.F. Butterfly Search Coil

    I have the BIG one 15x12 and I like it at the beach, covers alot of ground and goes deep. Could not use it at the park, to much trash. I think the smaller one would do better there. at the beach it was very stable, did not false. I find that you can never have enough coils! Steve

    I WANT A BIGGER BAG!

    hi andreak77, I thought about doing that, but it's kind of a hassle. If the bags were about 2" higher and about 4" longer they would be perfect. I know that White's probably has a ton of these bags already made, so I don't expect they will change them. Just a suggestion. Happy Holidays, Steve

    I WANT A BIGGER BAG!

    Having trouble getting my Vision in the bag when my Super 12 coil is on, zipper is pushed to the limit. And with the Bigfoot, forget about it. Hoping whites will make a bigger storage bag with some interior pockets to keep xtra coils in check. My buddy cuts the rod down to make them fit. I guess...

    PLATINUM VDI???

    I will be trying to locate a lost Platinum ring for a gentlemen this weekend, I was wondering what number to look for. He lost it 2 years ago in his parents backyard on an Ivy covered hill. I don't have any Platinum rings and I wanted to know if it's #'s are similar to gold? I'm pretty sure it...

    DetectorPro PistolProbe and the Spectra

    Hey Larry, I hunt a lot of old parks in downtown Los Angeles, maybe thats why the homeless guys are keeping there distance lately instead of asking me for money?

    DetectorPro PistolProbe and the Spectra

    I have been using the Pistol Probe for about 2 months, with the vision. I have not had any problems with interference at all. When I had the Vibra Probe it caused interference with my Dfx, it was so bad I had to put an on/off switch on to use it. Also I am very happy with the performance with...

    What kind of gloves do you all use?

    I like batting gloves, they are pretty durable and thin so i can (feel thru them). I wait for them to go on sale at Big 5. Harbor Freight also has a good selection of gloves, all different kinds. Detecting without Gloves and knee pads... Never!

    Keep a eye on your head screw on your V3.

    If your talking about where the batteries go in (plastic latch), mine was like that too. I realized that you have to make sure the door is shut all the way, what i mean is there are little tabs on the door part, that need to line up and pop in. Once i figured that out the latches snap tight. If...

    Keep a eye on your head screw on your V3.

    Eagle1, Read your post on sat. night, and wouldn't you know when i was hunting on sun. Half way thru the hunt I noticed that the Allen screw on my display was loose, by the end of the hunt it was so loose i could pull the two sides apart and look into the electronics! The power of suggestion...

    Took the VISION out to The Mojave looking for GOLD ;-)

    Hey Jerry, I hope you found a good spot! Maybe we can get a club outing organized? Did you go to Randsburg? I know a club member who has a claim out there, anyway I'm sure you had a good time. Also, a few of us are gonna be up in Ventura next Thurs. Hunting at an old school you should come by...
