Treasure Hunting Pays Off

Reference

<p>The purpose of MODERN METAL DETECTORS is to assist you in learning to be more successful when using your metal detector. I hope it will aid you in mastering your detector, rather than letting it master you. It is an all-encompassing, comprehensive reference and "how-to" guide to metal detectors. It is adaptable to your needs, whether you are just beginning, experienced, amateur, or professional. It is not intended to replace, but to supplement the other classic Ram Publishing Company metal detector books with their invaluable, up-to-date, "how-to" material. It traces metal detector history and development from start to present. It presents complete information about all land and underwater metal detector types, how they work, their characteristics, capabilities, applications and field uses. This book is filled with "how-to" instructions and explains every phase of metal detecting: electronic theory, metal detector design, electromagnetic fields, search matrix, metals and minerals, detection characteristics of metals, and many more subjects. Every person who has used a metal detector, or even thought someday he would, has questions about metal detectors. Often-heard questions are: "What is Discrimination and Ground Elimination?"; "What is a target classifier meter?"; "Can I go deeper if I use a larger search coil?"; and "Do I need a BFO, VLF, or Pulse Induction metal detector to find coins, caches and gold?" I have endeavored to present basic, all-encompassing, up-to-date detector knowledge, so that regardless of the problems and questions you have, you will be able to find your own answers. You'll be able to bench-test your detector and take it into the field for testing to learn what you want to know. If you should have questions, you'll have the knowledge you need to ask the right questions and to know if you get the right answers. A Glossary is included to help you build your vocabulary with a storehouse of metal detector terminology.</p>
