Hello. I've been trying to help a friend find an underground shutoff valve on a water line buried below the frost line (40 inches?). Using a Vanquish 540 and finally found the line using the pin point button. I can trace out the course of the pipes but a strange thing occurs. I find 3 parallel 'images' of the pipe - about a foot apart. Very consistent lines. Are there such a thing as 'electromagnetic shadows' or something? Strange. Question number 2 is can I somehow find the shutoff valve. It is supposedly brass and should be down 12 inches or so. I've tried non-ferrous settings and get no consistent detection along the pipe. I would have thought that a brass valve would make the detector go nuts!
Thanks
