Hmmm...attach an electro-mechanical device to an electrical device that goes crazy from electrical interference and detects metal. Why haven't I thought of that?

Is this a belated April fools question?

Sorry but common sense prevails.

In other words you can't change the channel on your tv with the remote
if you have a fan blowing on you becase the signal
will blow away :D

Unless the fans behind you of course
then the signal will get there faster :P

However, if you have a fan on your control box, and have it blow upward, it will cool you off as you hunt!

I know that hot air will bounce cuss words off the wall, and the hotter the air they will penetrate to next door, like in a motel. To my knowledge a fan wont help.
I think if you are MD'ing it would have an opposite effect if you mixed cuss words with the air. Never tried the other way. Gnewt

if you attach a battery powered fan to your dectectors coil it pushes the signal downwards when it comes back up increasing depth have you tried it.

Only works if you are wearing a tin foil hat so the solar gamma rays won't interfere with the brain waves :icon_scratch:

I work in a factory and got ahold of an industrial fan and and superglued it to my ACE250 and found what appears to be a Viking Ship at the Salton Sea. We celebrated by feasting on butterscotch pudding cups because that is all we had available. Lesson learned today: Keep something else on hand because butterscotch pudding eaten in great quantities will make you wish the Salton Sea had public rest rooms.

well seeing as you ask he says also if you want to find mainly gold 2 stick a piece on your detector with tape cancel out the signal then detect he claims you only dig the targets that dont beep not 2 sure about that one.

Do I tape the gold above or below the fan? What if I tape the gold to a fan blade? Which blade? One or how many? Quick! The Salton Sea is receding!!
