Metal Detecting Under Powerlines???

[Digstuff]

Hello all!
I'm back with another question. I have some cool pre -1900's foundations, as well a a newer (but still old) demolished house foundation on my dads land.
Problem is... they are right below the power lines, under which my metal detector goes nuts.
Any way of getting around this?
Thank you!

That's not a bad idea!

What kind of detector? If you are using a multiple freq line Equinox, go through the freqs one at a time, sometimes different freqs react differently to electrical interference.

I am using the Bounty Hunter Tracker IV right now.

That is single freq detector so your only option is to turn down your sensitivity
