New Handheld Locator

[signal_line]

Just saw the new Pathfinder by Tim Williams at lrlman.com I have one of his older units called the Image Tracker. I adapted it to be used with an electronic receiver. Same with EFNMR2015. So I highly suspect this unit could also be adapted for electronic receiver.

Good luck with that LRL buddy..

I like Tim’s equipment. I spent many years working on the Contraption with an electronic receiver. Once I got access to a EFNMR2015 I shelved the Contraption. It’s done, but the electronic receiver still lives. The Contraption had up to 630 volts, kinda dangerous. I know enough about human nature somebody would sooner or later get zapped. Output on th EFNMR2015 is like 2.4 volts,—much more comfortable feeling. In the video Yim said the PathFinder had the same system as the EFNMR2015. Of course voltage is no the only factor in signal strength. The EFNMR has a strong signal even in the low power setting.

I don’t know the price on the PathFinderLRL

Interesting, I wish I understood it better! Why use a receiver? To make it handheld? Is it a portable unit, and are you using it for audio?

Why use a receiver? Because it takes out the wishful thinking that is suspect in many L-rod hits. You stay at the transmitter so you don’t have to walk out in the brush or uneven ground or in windy conditions.

The electronic receiver is not a “handheld” locator. You have to be near the transmitter and the transmitter has to be running for a few minutes in a stable position. But you do have to hold the receiver and scan the area. Yes, there is an audio response when you aim the receiver at the target.

Note: I have not seen this PathFinder, I am only going by what the video says that it is basically the same circuits as the EFNMR2015. You also have to hook up equipment to the transmitter, it’s not just an electronic receiver.

I watched the video. What is this gadget supposed to do? The video doesn't explain anything.

Is this some kind of dowsing tool?

It signals Gold and Silver in line.. A portable doohicky..

There are three ways to use it. One is handheld—scan the area and see where the rod points to.

Another way is to set it on the ground and wait a few minutes then walk around the device with the L-rod to find the line to the discriminated target.

Probably a bit confusing to be discussing using it with an electronic receiver because that is my apparatus and it is not part of this system...yet. But the electronic receiver sounds off when aimed at the target.

One major problem with using this type of locator is micron-sized particles will sound off—but the EWC—Electronic Weight Cancel—can filter out the small stuff better than most locators. People that have used EWC say it is the best weight cancelling on the market. I agree!

Looks more like a metal detector, than a lrl device.. You should sell it over in metel detecting!

Tim’s locators use earth field NMR—nuclear magnetic resonance frequencies to excite the target.

Not mine to sell, I am just an enthusiast and want to find some treasure. I live, eat, and breathe locating. It’s natural when a person feels this way to want to share the joy.

Using the EWC you increase the setting in small amounts until you can no longer detect the target. The amount of EWC you used gives you a relative target size. If you don’t use some type of weight cancelling you will be digging many empty holes. Without EWC figure 9 out of ten hits are insignificant amounts of very fine particles. These particles when scattered over an area can make it appear to be a large target. And a true large target or one that has been buried for many years will appear huge. ANd the lines you detect will not be the actual target but the edges of the target’s resonance field. DIg there and nothing. The EWC allows you to narrow down this giant field until you get only one line directly to the target. EWC is very sensitive and you need to make adjustments in small increments. For me, as I reach the cut-off point the L-rods only close so the rod tips are barely crossing. This way you know there is a target there and that you have narrowed it down.

I need something like that. EWC. I have to dowse quantity comparison to figure it out.. Either way we still need to be above the target, right? I can't dowse quantity of Element from a distance, aside from length of signal line..
