My old NY Excal is gone the way of all mechanical devices with time and lots of use (and perhaps some abuse!!).

Splicing the coil cable worked beautifully!! The Sweet little butterfly coil worked like a charm!!

Now all I needed was a connector to allow me to switch coils!!

Double and triple checked all wire connections and found all work flawless!!

Power on, a flash of light, a puff of smoke and I can never hunt with the old girl again!!

There is a great temptation to bury the her at sea, but she will likely just end up in the land of departed detectors and sweet memories.

Any of our Friends or Fellow Hunters along the Connecticut shore that wish to view the remains can contact me for calling hours.

Thanks all for your advice and your generosity in shareing tips along the way.

One Sad Old Ex Excal Owner,

CJ

Hey Wood....I think the detector was being a viking funeral pyre, all on its own
Cup.....what are you going to replace it with?

 

[Cupajo]

Hi Barker,

That's what I do!! (Among other things.)

Hi TD,

One day I would like another Excal, but first I would like to try a Sovreign GT.

GL&HH Friends,

CJ

CJ sorry to hear your Ecal expired, sounds like it went quickly though. I have a NY Excal and it is really hot compared to the newer Excals. HH Frank in NH
