hmm, I guess I need to be more consistent on "TreasureNet Sponsorship!" ;)
For the sake of clarity, I assume you are not in favor of MD sponsors that also sell LRL's?

Do you feel that Carl's post was in error, concerning the dealers who carry these devices?

What do the companies I listed produce?

Notably, what do they NOT produce?

Why?

Electronic sensing devices.
Some dealing with EM pulses for imaging as in the case of Burton and others with pure electromagnetics for LOCAL, 'in loco' detection of metals. Some more professionally and exhibiting better circuitry as Geonics, Geometrics, Quantro for instance.

Notably, what do they NOT produce?

Long Range Locators in the level we discuss in this forum.
So your list is flawed and way incorrect.


In the case of Long Range Locators in the level we discuss in this forum, maybe because the cited manufacturers have an estabilished long time experience already with the devices they sell for 'in loco' sensing and their profits are adequate. Going in the LRL 'direction' would require for them another department, investment, R&D, etc. This costs money and usually takes many heads to decide.

OKM, for instance, deals and manufactures some similar devices the cited corps produce and yet they have 'long range locators' such as Bionic 01 and Bionic Alpha. One can locate a target from a vast distance and when over it use an imager for confirmation, spot the target, whatever...
I know of several THers who use this aproach.

And of course there are MD manufacurers in your list who just insist in ignoring LRL reality and keep developing the same toys for years for hobby detecting. Maybe due to pure ignorance on the aproach involved, blocked mind vision, incompetence, whatever. This is irrelevant anyway.

As a final input, I already cited here cases such as Garret's. When in 1984 Alonso from Mineoro visited Garret's factory and showed Charles Garret himself a working prototype of the DCH85, he was delighted. He got so happy when Alonso detected long range a gold watch in Garret Factory's backyard that he literally yelled, danced and ran around the factory premises showing everybody what he had in hands.
Later Damasio told me this same prototype was taken to Mel Fisher and used in the Atocha's gold location.

But this is another story...

Your logic being that it is acceptable to profit ("mine a wallet") from the devices, as long as you do not produce (manufacture) the same?

I suppose that anyone who buys an LRL generally has to also buy a metal detector in order to "check" the LRL hit and avoid digging hundreds of pointless holes. But otherwise, I'm not aware that detector manufacturers profit off LRLs in any way.

More Skeptic logic…Please ..Marc is thinking about doing a test of LRL’s and MFD’s…Are you jealous because he is doing it and not you?
Real Treasure Hunters will trust Marc’s conclusions…

The Title of this thread is "Retailers of LRL's".
Marc asked "Who sells LRL's?"
My question was concerning the Dealers....companies that Sell LRL's.

Yes, I know what Marc asked. Yet many of the companies I posted are also retailers; that is, you can walk in to their business and purchase an instrument. Ergo, I'm well within the spirit of the question.

Obviously, my response was a rather tongue-in-cheek turn-around of the question. Rather than ask, "Who sells LRL's?" why not ask, "Who doesn't sell LRL's?" The list I posted is very telling, for those who care to listen to what it tells.

Carl, it's notable of checking that your credibility here is really down the slope lately. Presently it's leveled down to those of SWR and Ted for instance...and falling...
Now I detect one new thing from you. When you face embarassing situations, you just use of irony...
Way to go Carl.

Discussion of Carl's credibility within the Retailers of LRL's thread is nothing more than a red herring tactic, Hung. Who did you learn that from... Judy and Eddie? :nono:

Re: Retailers of LRL's

HI Luv B&B, hung eddie, aa, Saturna, Carl, and all of the rest of my friends. swr posted that the following were LRL devices?,

--> Long Range Locators can include two-box detectors, Electrical Resistivity Imaging, GPR and other types of legitimate 3D underground imaging devices. Long Range Locators are not just limited to the pseudoscience gadgets in these threads
*************
Sorry, but no way, unless you are referring to a moles' vocabulary and a Myoptic world. In conventional T Hunting, prospecting, or electronics none of the above would be considered as such.
