Greeting fellow explorers
I've just recently started exploration, I'm based in 0.0 and having a great ol time doing it. At the moment I do the usual thing of finding the sites in my Cov-ops then swithing to an AF or BS depending on the firepower needed to clear the site of NPCs.
I'd like to not have to do this given the dangerous nature of where I currently operate. It's pure luck if I can get my BS to and from a site unscathed.
So what are the best ships for finding and completing profession sites with ONE ship? Baring in mind that I can only fly Gallente ships. I'm thinking maybe Recons or HACs could fulfill this role. I'm training for Gallente cruiser V at the moment, so I've no experience in fitting or flying them.
Is it even feasible / desirable to fit the same ship to take out the spawns you get at 0.0 sites and carry a codebreaker, analyzer and salvager module?
Any and all advice welcome.

Sadly, there are no ships currently that can tank well enough, and do enough DPS, and have scanning bonuses to do 0.0 exploration.
edit: That being said, if you have 2 accounts running, you can always jump in a Black Ops battleship (iirc, all cloaking ships are receiving the covert-cyno bonus)

Codebreaker+analyzer+salvager+scanprobe? 
Wait for the sin,the widow or the golem for after the major patch.
Even then... it will be a pain to wait for the scans to end

Most certainly. But that's only because you left out the 'finding them' part from your sentence.

People do use BS for all of it. I can't really give you any advice, as I haven't tried 0.0 Exploring yet, but here's what I'm thinking.
I'm currently training up Command Ships in the hope I can make something work, and in the long term I've thought about the Fleet Tempest or Mach. (Not because I think they're the best for it, but because they're on my training path.)
To my mind the biggest consideration has been how (in)secure the area is. If you're not expecting to have to run many bubblecamps, that's going to open up a lot more possibilities.

Do you have recommendations on fits that would work well?

The Ishtar is your choice. Enough fire power, enough tank for any NPC encounters. But in a gate camp it haven't any chance like the another ships. So, be careful, use scout.

Exploration really works best with 2 accounts...
Cheatah & Nighthawk
Those are my Recomendations
