:twodetecting:HOW To Convert Your Metal Detector Into A LRL (Long Range Locator):twodetecting:

[John-Edmonton]

Have you ever ran out of battery power, or just plain old forgot the spares? Don't give up! You can convert your detectors (if you brought along that back-up machine) to a "LRL", and they are usually advertised to go through mountains, down 10 feet deep and able to even find dollar bills or diamonds. Think I'm kidding? Google "LONG RANGE LOCATORS" and see what is available.

Here's how to utilize your metal detectors to do the same thing. No batteries required.

#1 Keep both detectors (rods) parallel and horizontal to each other, walk in a straight line. Please, clear your mind of any thoughts, except what you want to find. In my case, I was chanting "GOLD GOLD GOLD"

#2 When you suddenly feel both rods cross, and for some it is a sudden powerful pull, stop!

#3 Observe directly below where the rods intersect, and on that spot, start digging.

#4 In my case, after chanting "GOLD GOLD GOLD" I dug a hole about 12" deep, and used my Garrett Pro-Pointer to locate a beautiful gold ring. And, I didn't scratch it either.

They sell a few of those things. Can't believe people spend good money like that. .

I think you are on to something great there JOHN; maybe you can convince GARRETT to put it in there line up.
They could leave all the guts out of one they all ready make ; make up some coils without any wire in them
to help cut down on weight and cost, maybe name it the JOHN LONG-RANGER ( after all YOU did come up with
the idea ! ) add a blaze orange paint job and Viola !!!

Were you using those limbs on the ground to mark the spot?

 

[John-Edmonton]

No....it was the chanting of "GOLD GOLD GOLD" which got the gold. Honestly! poke

 

[John-Edmonton]

Now that is a real compliment! Thanks....

It truly is sad, isn't it. A calculator glued on a freely rotating gunlike gizmo!

No...I wish I was though. It's my way of de-stressing

Ah, the old Garrett witching trick. Works every time. Locates water also.

 

[lazyaussie]

hay Bill how do ya tell the difference between gold & water

 

[slingshot]

Well, gold is kinda solid and water will run right through your fingers.

John - It wasn't enough for you to be the Garrett cover boy, now you're going for the LRLs!

I don't know, but a "Water Witch" does. I've seen guys use the danged things and they worked.

Now, let me get this straight. Should the rod in the right hand be above the one in the left, or vice versa? Should the sun be coming over my left shoulder or right? And if it's the time of a full moon, should my left ear be facing Saturn or Mars?
