The electronics enhance the target's own signal. L-rods alone pretty much a shot in the dark unless you have years of practice borderline insanity. But no matter what you use, the earth's magnetic field plays a big role. When it's shifting you aren't going to be on line no matter what somebody tells you. So really even if you KNOW where the target is, if you are locating properly you may not get the line accurately. That's why you are supposed to use a test target--to see if the line is on or not or too weak to find. Not much different than nugget hunting--you use a test target to see what the conditions are for that ground at that time.
