That’s all I can think of also,start from scratch on the backup. I don’t know why they would’ve loaded in a different order in the first place,so you might have to get that ironed out if it does it again. Perhaps it does it alphabetically? Don’t know. I just looked at my machine for a bit and I don’t think you can switch them around on the machine itself. As Jason said,if someone knows,please post...and Steve,let us know what you found.
Also Steve...you must have a real liking for it already to get a backup! I will admit,it is that likeable!
IDX -- yep, I DO like it that much!
Here's the thing...I keep a machine in Oklahoma, and one in Pennsylvania, at my Mom's house (where I do a lot of detecting). I like my "primary" and my "backup" to be the same machine if at all possible, and I had been set up with two Explorers, one here, one there. HOWEVER, when one of the Explorers died recently, I had a choice to make. Get another Explorer, OR do something wild and crazy, and get a CTX.
After much pondering and debating with myself, I opted for the CTX (Joe's fault!) -- and was lucky enough to get a REAL nice one,
but without warranty. So, once I saw how much I like the CTX, my thought was, what if this one dies? After pondering that for a bit, I decided it might be wise, if possible, to go back to the plan where I have both my primary and my backup machines both be the same (in this case, CTXs). SO, that's what I ended up doing -- and why I've had so much Explorer stuff for sale on the forums lately (including the last of my Explorers that I'm selling right now).
Then, once I get the Equinox, to use as a "complementary" machine to hunt in really trashy/irony sites, I should have all bases covered -- and be done buying machines for a long time! Primary CTX, backup CTX, and "change of pace" machine (Equinox) for certain specific sites.
The CTX is AMAZING. If the Equinox is amazing in its own way (and I expect it to be) -- I should be in great shape!
