Crazy, but that's the way it's set-up.
Your analogy is excellent and logical. The LRL-users here will argue against it, of course, saying that one video only proves that just one user or just one machine will work correctly, but what they don't get is the fact that this is all that's being requested. Just show us that one person can work one of these devices correctly.davebien said:
Four months that you've been avoiding Dave's request for a video, Art??aarthrj3811 said:
Ahh, at last a fresh excuse. I was starting to worry about you for awhile there, Art.....aarthrj3811 said:
My, what an impressive retort......EddieR said:
Art, was generous enough to devote his time, money and effort, to try to record a video for you to the best of his ability, Unfortuantely, the best of Art's abilities (to evade the point of the video request) weren't up to snuff.Dell Winders said:

You're right, of course. If the detector is set up incorrectly it may not detect a nugget being waved under it's coil.
Of course, an LRL will never turn in the direction of the nugget, no matter who is using it..... (Forgot that part, didn't ya??)
Seriously?!? You didn't refer to an LRL. You responded to a post comparing an LRL to a metal detector. You commented that a metal detector may not work in the hands of a newbie. If you'll read, I did point out that you forgot to address the LRL. Never did I write that you made a comment about LRLs.EddieR said:af1733 said:My, what an impressive retort......EddieR said:

Ummm....no. Show me where in my post I referred to a LRL. Geez...not only do you seem to suffer from memory loss, it seems you are seeing words that aren't there..........
Anything to twist and spin, eh.....even making it up on occasion.
I do say it was not up to snuff. You didn't follow a single part of the request other than making a video. You could have recorded your dog chewing on a tennis ball for what you managed to "prove" with your little LRL vid.aarthrj3811 said:

Now, again, I'll expect an apology for your inference that I made something up, when in fact you simply didn't understand the plain English I've written.
I swear, you sound more and more like Art every day....
I didn't forget to address the LRL...I was referring to the metal detector. What part of that was hard to understand? And since I didn't refer to the LRL, I guess I wasn't "talking" about the LRL. Obviously, YOU didn't understand the plain English I had written, (so ya stuck your own version of what you thought I SHOULD have written in there).
I pointed out that you forgot to address the LRL. In the interest of keeping this conversation even-keeled, I have no problem at all tackling the entirely of the posts I respond to, but you apparently can't handle this.....EddieR said:af1733 said:Seriously?!?

Gimme a break....I didn't think you were that desperate. Oh well..................

The reason you can't ( I believe) is that you'd prefer that any negative comments about LRL's die off, just like every other "believer" in here. The funny thing is that, no matter how many negative comments you make about metal detectors, they'll never surpass the negative features of LRLs.
Isn't that sad to know that you'll never be able to prove that a metal detector is inferior to an LRL?? I mean, the "pros" here can't even make a simple video of themselves finding an unknown target! They can run around all day claiming they do find unknown targets, and do it frequently, but when it comes to providing simple proof, they fail each time.....
The post you commented on was a comparison between the functionality of metal detectors versus LRLs in exactly the same conditions. Your comment was a negative comment about the metal detector in the comparison. You chose to pick pretty much the only way a detector would fail to detect a piece of gold waved under it's coil. But you didn't say a word about how the LRL would function.EddieR said:3 questions for you:
(1) Why are still ranting that I "forgot" to mention a LRL in my post? I gave the simple explanation that I was talking about a metal detector in that post, not a LRL.
Now, for the next two questions.
(2) Where have I ever made a negative comment about metal detectors? As many detectors as I have, even you should realize that I love metal detecting. (I've picked up 2 more that I haven't listed on my profile yet)
(3) Where have I ever implied that I wantedto prove a metal detector is inferior to LRL's?
Please enlighten us all ....show where I made these comments. If you can, I'll happily retract them. If you can't....well....then I guess you just made them up, right?
