DEPTH CHART how low can you go POLL

[Michigan Badger]

Okay, we've all see these before and most have ruled them out as "rediculous."

Personally, I believe them

So far I've found the test on the Tejon, Nautilus IIB, Sovereign GT, DeLeon, and Silver uMax are dead center accurate when tested as he tested them.

I've had a few thank me in PM's for posting about the super depth of the Tesoro uMax with 12x10 inch coil. I got the original idea from the 1st chart at this site. He used a web 9x8 concentric coil in his test. I used the 12x10. After trying the Silver uMas with the 12x10 at my old sites I sold my Tejon. My Tejon wasn't nearly as deep. The last straw was when I got a nice solid signal with the Silver and couldn't get even a tick from the Tejon. I dug a silver War Nickel at about 9 inches deep.

What do U think? Do tell all...

I once found a Chinese coin with my detector...it was on the other side of the Earth, so I couldn't retrieve it.

HH!

That detector must of been very good on lead.

To be completely fair, the best thing to do is to make a "black box". A black box is exactly like it appears in electronics. There are black painted boxes used to test technicians in training. There are either two leads, 3 leads, 4 leads, or sometimes five leads (wires) , and the students need to be able to determine what is hooked up inside to the wires without seeing them. Diodes are the easiest to determine. It can get a little hairy at times, and even confusing at others.

A "black box" with metal detecting would be something that has nails to hold it together, and things put inside it in the soil without anybody knowing what they are or how deep, etc., except for the person who put them in there. Then run all the various detectors over it on only one side (the top). If one detector does a better job than the rest, you have a winner.

I have done this using nothing but a 12" X 8' X 2" board laying flat on the ground in trashy areas, and then running different detectors over them. This REALLY separates the good ones from the bad ones, after the targets are dug up. This is the best way to really know your detector, and a true, real-life one too. Set up test gardens are too biased for the most part, catering to one detector or another.

Well my sweets...in our POLL those who are favorable toward the infamous CHART now out number those who think it ridiculous.

That's not counting the apple juice people of course.
