What Type of Detector Is The Explorer?

[Cody]

If there are questions concerning the type of detector the Explorer process uses then check the Internet for US Patent 5537041. The first three pages give a pretty good definition of the various arts used in FD, TD, SF, etc, and other detector. If you will go to page 7 you will find the advantages of the Explorer PI detector over prior art for PI detectors.

The Explorer, Quattro & Sovereign are all a type of PI detector. Not the same as you normally think of a PI but nevertheless a PI. Cody, I continue to enjoy your posts.

Good to hear from you. You nailed it in that we often think of a PI as the prior art. The reason why Candy and Minelab were granted a patent is due to the advantages he invented over the prior art. My guess is we will look back on those old machines like we do the BFO and TR.
