David, I just wanted to thank you for the fast reply on the X-1 probe,shaft and rain cover and want to apologise to you for all the crap I raised on the forum. I just had a bad explorer I guess but the new used one works great. Again thanks for the help. Larry.

Your most welcome. When we spoke on the phone, and then later I discovered you were lilfox, I couldn't believe it...lol. Your actually a very nice person After I understood where you were coming from, it was easy to understand your frustration. Let me say that these guys (and gals) on findmall are an extended family. They stick together, and better yet, they are most willing to help if approached in a friendly way. I for one welcome you back as a fellow member. Be patient and you will find many new friends. They will be some of the best "Finds" you will ever make. Good hunting, David @ Dixie

Thanks for the post C.C. No I didn't, I was just highly irritated that my ex was giving me trouble and I was taking it out in all the wrong places. I want to apologize too you also, I was out of line, and that is not my normal way. I did sell my ex but I ended up buying anouther one from a fellow who was getting an ex-2. This unit works super and I am finding a number of coins 8 to 11 inches. Again I apologize and thanks for the post. Lilfox.

I don't take the detector wars serious so no harm done. I actually had a good laugh at some of the posts on both sides. Good luck with your xs!
ps Curious what ever made you want to give it another chance after such a bad experience?

Was out at one of the old parks in my area that I had worked many times with out much luck with my old explorer. Run into a fellow with an explorer and we talked for awhile then proceded to hunt togeather. I saw him dig a number of coins from around ten inches deep and asked if he would let me try his detector to see if it had been me or my detector that couldn't find coins below six inches. He even let me set it up with my old settings which were similar to his, that is when I found the quarter at 11 inches and the dime at 8.5 inches. He told me it was for sale for 500 dollars as he wanted to get a new explorer 2. Before we finished hunting I bought it and ended up finding 2 wheaties at 8 to 9 inches deep. His unit was less than a year old so I got a very good deal, and am exceptionally happy with it. It is really amazing the difference in the two units. My two friends are looking for a couple of used units also. They compared theirs to mine with the same settings and were amazed at the difference in the three units. Don't know why ours didn't work as they should, maybe Kellyco, they were all three bought within two weeks of each other from kellyco, and we have all had the same problem with them. That is why we got soured on them but this new unit shows that the explorer is all that was said it was. My 2 friends have both tried my new unit and are happy enough to give it another try also. Crazy things happen with detectors, just like cars. Hope no one else runs into the same problem but maybe this will bring it to light if they do. At least then maybe we can find a fix and keep people like me from losing it ha ha.
