Treasure Hunting Knowledge
October 26th 2006 14:53
As mentioned in the introductory post, I have a lot of perfectly good information already accomplished, and that will be the basis of my orble.com weblog initially, interspersed of course with my live input as this new blog develops. I will try not to bombard you, dear reader, and at least entertain you, if not instruct you as well.
I have not been out and about on the net too much yet today. Hopefully nothing too disastrous happened while I slept, and I think the shenannigans of the weirdoes in charge here is just a constant measure of embarassment. How embarassing to be part of all these slapstick killingjokes, and is it going to make us blush today, or turn us bright beet red and make us sweat oily droplets??
Hmmmm?
So, all I have accomplished thus far in my sojourn through yet another day in this madmens funhouse, is to go outside to look at the sunrise as has become my habit.
I had a good 2 hours metal detecting yesterday in my favorite field, which was once an area of military activity, then it became a small dump from some habitation areas 1920-40 or so, then it became graded for use as an airfield in the 40's I think.
I like to get out but that does not happena as often as I would like. Yet.
Good Day all, and an earlier work here:
Know Your Metal Detector
The prime rule with any metal detector is to know your machine. Many people think that the more money they spend on a metal detector the more they will find. This is simply not true. It has been proven over and over again that the type and price of a metal detector does not even compare to the amount of time one spends practicing with their machine. I know this to be so, because I went through all that at a young age. Imagine my surprise when I got my first discriminator, and thought OH BOY now I am going to be rich, but that was not the case at all. I actually had to use my old jetco mustang for awhile, in conjunction with the discriminator, until I learned the new machine well enought to retire the jetco for good.
Even after I learned my newer metal detector, and its discriminating attributes, it took awhile for me to get good with it, and truthfully, I am still learning new trix and refining my methods, to this day. I especially know that it pays for me to be willing to try new things while metal detecting, and I never scoff at any idea, no matter how silly it might appear initially.
I have also learned that just because someone says something is so, does not necessarily MAKE it so, and by experimenting freely, I know that theory is, many times, definitely not all its cracked up to be. If I try something and it works, regardless of the theory involved, then what matters most to me is that is DOES work, and we will sort the theory out later. This works for many other things in life as well.
Discriminating metal detector circuits work in several different ways, but as I understand it, there is actually an analyzation circuit now in most discriminating metal detectors, which compares a signal with a second signal derived from the same source, but in another electrical phase state, such as 180 degrees out of phase with the first signal. This analyzation circuit is actually an electronic recognition circuit, very cool, and this is what causes the machine to either give a good strong BOING-RINGING-ROUNDSOUND signal, or a crackly broken abruptness, which you will soon learn means garbage. The difference between a good signal and a bad are generally very easy to discern, although one must always be aware that sometimes junk can mask a good target, and it pays to listen well, and to enhance your listening capabilities whenever possible.Your text goes here
