Hunting in Canada, use an Infinium, here's why..
Just did some tests with my new Infinium & have some interesting results. It looks like all current Canadian coins, rings, necklaces etc., read (on the infinium) as a low conductor with the distinctive hi-low tones. Larger iron gives the low-hi & the disc. will knock out some of the small, low conductive iron trash without losing the good stuff. This is good news for detecting in Canada, especially where I live (B.C. & highly mineralized). There are a few freshwater lakes here that (because of mineralization) are a reall bear to hunt with a vlf. Now, Minelab BBS & FBS owners need not jump in with claims of how they could handle the ground, they can't, period (been tested).? Now, all that's left is PI.... but we all know about PI's & iron. Well it looks like the new Garrett offers a solution. Maybe not a complete one, but better than the alternatives. While gold jewellery offers the big ticket stuff, there's nothing wrong with popping $1 & $2 coins. Zinc pennies read good while copper doesn't. Oh, well, can't win them all. Anyway, that's about all..Willy.? ? ?
