sorry to hear that phil. try and get a xs as their a better machine.  mike

hi phil if you need help with setting the machine there is plenty of people who use the explorers here online @ detecting wales..
a good base to start using machine adjust sensetivity to about 20.go to select. tick coins. x nails. noise cancel and adjust your threshold tone to a hum just as low as you can hear it then you should have a good base to start from.
regards.
ian.

yes mike i do agree ive just got a xs back should never have sold my old one john poo is to blame exploerer 2 is rubbish it likes iron more than xs thanks ian for the help but i got it coverd thanks all the same  ???

sorry phil thought you was new to it.so you find the xs better for sites with a lot of iron in?.

without dout its deeper than ex2 iron separation is far better if i spelt that right ::) ive found 15 hammerd with it in 12 weeks but 400+ with xs in 2 years that says it all theres only one for me the xs (phil)

hi phil, explorer is no good you counted 180 targets last sun including 7 small roman 2 and half roman fibulas, , your best day i remember was 150 targets with the xs, remember julie roberts  big big mistake,   i m going to give you some wappings now if you go back to the xs, you  used to say i was stuborn :, its alright mate, i will get those deep hoards for uspuzzled john

in your dreams johnny ;) :D ;D lol

concidering the explorer 2 in my opinion is better than the exp xs .your problem is you either have the explorer 2 set up wrong or you found all the hammered in the feilds you have been to.once you find them they go mate..
in 1986 i found 42 gold rings but if i compare that to todays finds a year i would go back to my c-scope330. but i use my head and stick to the etrac or se as theyare 20 times that 330c-scope.
you may find you are mistaken or you have a bad explorer2 needs retuning and service but it is better than an xs .
same as an se is better than explorer 2 its how you use it and whether you are able to use it fully  

fair comm if you want to put your se against my xs one day lets do it lets sort the wheat out from the chaff ill take you to a site and you,ll find jack with that se and ill pull roman coins up behind you give me a ring my number is on detectors for sale  :D ;)                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      and one last thing you say that ive found all the hammerds on my feilds. ive been doing a field in glos for 2 years and still pulling up hammerds you can never do a feild you will not find a hammerd penny deeper than 8ins dont care what detector you got  ;)

why dont you all get a fisher 75 and stop messing with the moonlob rubbish.  mike

well said mike or just buy the finds its cheaper ;D

there's no need to buy find's when you got a 75 as it actualy does find thing's in the ground.  unlike the over weight over priced over rated moonlob.   mike

a mike how would you like a trip out with me and john to one off my sites oneday soon your more than welcome got some good sites 8) ps you can bring that old fisher 75 wiht you  ;D

i'd love to. give me a shout any day from wednesday on. you can have an hour with the 75 you never know it might convert you.  mike 

you never know :D

hi vac and mike, havn t stopped laughing, , cant wait  for  sunday and next week

john i dont want you and phil falling out over who's turn it is to use the 75.  mike

well i did'nt think minelab had given fisher any tips on getting more than surface finds but according to these boys they can actually pick up stuff in the ground not just from their pockets lol.
i gave the fishers a good bashing on the beach with a mate of mine he had to conseed that he could not determin a signal that showed easily on the minelab se as good came a iron signal on his.if you know how to use a detector is most important .
i may not find half as many hammered as any other detectorist there but i will find twice as many things as others.
i would love to meet up one weekend for a tester and a day out on some ground .we can find some good signals and mark them with some plastic markers and see who finds them .we could find some iffy signals in which you would honestly dig and then also compare .
we are all winners one will find a cut quarter the other may not one will find larger stuff much deeper than another but all in all we all enjoy detecting .
but it would be ideal for us to compose a feild test with say all explorers against each other i can bring exp2/se and etrac. you have the xs i only use pro coil and sef coils but sef are my favourite .
maybe when we have checked out the minelabs against each other the fisher f75 could be used to find extra targets for us to go against say the worst at finding signals minelab and the best .
now how's that boy's i am up for it .
will tell you i am available saturday coming  if weather is ok .......!!!!!!!!!
we all may be shocked who cares ....
it's the only truth we may ever agree on.
it is totally fair to say the outcome is stricktly only the status at that site .other sites may differ as machines are built to handle different conditions.
so who's up for that .i am !!!

im more than up for it rich ive got the dd myself so that makes it even bring the ex 11 with you so i (we) can see ps thanks for the phone call today nice to speak to you about sence we both agree that they are about the same depth but iorn discrim is so different and we will get mike to bring his kingfisher 75 ill let you know wats wat for sat regards phil ;)

will do i have a redheat mark 2 i could bring up and maybe see how that compares as i have not a clue how good they are on roman sites .
i wonder if the fisher works in soil or just in air ......
it will be nice to see for certain  which works better and how much better for that..
i think some time it is just luck as to who goes over the signal  when its been detected on well all day then you go over some well hammered area and pull signal after signal your going deeper than others obviously.
i found a hammered coin on the surface  at a rally last week 3.10pm  i was the first person on that spot that was luck .3.20 pulled up  a grotty roman that was deep in a hammered section been 50 to 60 detectors went over the arae for 6 hours prior to me  i found 1 more and had 7 signals also from there so they weren't luck did not see a fisher 75 up there lots of white tesoros lasers xp's minelabs  garrets  t2's and most other makes.great mix .....
so fisher f75 could you make it? 
so if possible lets see saturday next ..?????

i cant make saturday's as we detect in england. but any other day's in the week i'm free.  mike

ill see wat i can do mike with work and all that had a nice hammerd today at rally elizabeth 1st three pence out standing condition very happy with it think ive got ex 11 sorted on iron now so might not be selling it now we will see ill let you know about going out (regards phil)

O.K  cheer's phil
