Need a couple good men with two box units

Solid lead and unusual opportunity to safely access a desirable, notorious but generally off-limits site in Chicagoland: no need to be sneaky (nothing illegal), but does require discretion. We have the rest of winter to plan. Would prefer someone from the region. No tire kickers or nosy-nellies- serious inquiries only.

PM me if you're interested, I'll PM back if I'm interested. Also posting in Cache Hunting and appropriate regional forums.

Nosy Nellies on a treasure forum? Nonsense! :wink:

Why split any recoveries with someone "good" with a two box? Two box are straight forward and easy to use. Especially if you have normal metal detecting experience. If you are pretty certain this is a good hot lead, just buy a used 2 box, they are surprisingly affordable. Study the manual and do some testing. Then git the treasure yourself, no strings attached. Then sell the thing. You know, the two box.

Really bad assumption and conclusion.
The reason more than one person is needed for this little trek has nothing to do with 'knowledge' on how to use a two box unit. There is a certain amount of ground to cover and a limited time to do it- beyond what one person could accomplish.
That's all that will be said on this.
