Guest sandtrap Posted October 1, 2010 Report Share Posted October 1, 2010 Doc's secret.>>> He has a big dog that wears "Black Widow " earphones,.. When his dog picks up a signal, it digs feverishly at the srea Doc points out Saves Doc a lot of digging. He is trying to breed these dogs, but it takes a long while to train them.

Guest sandtrap Posted October 1, 2010 Report Share Posted October 1, 2010 I did not mean to give his secret out; it slipped, as while visiting relatives in Vegas,and beeping, I caught him in the act. He doesn't know it tho. I did not work in security for nothing.. Semper Fi > VOTE IN NOVEMBER ! ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ridge Runner Posted October 1, 2010 Report Share Posted October 1, 2010 sandtrap I'm going to wait until Rob starts to sell it.When you get yours do let me know what you think about it.Thanks!Chuck Anders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOC Posted October 2, 2010 Report Share Posted October 2, 2010 Guys it's not a modification. It's just a must have accessory, that will make life easier and the reports have been that it lessens EM Interference.Won't be long now the last item is supposedly on the way to me as we speak.I actually showed it to people at the Prescott Minelab Training Center Grand Opening.Here's a picture of Steve H. from Alaska Diving and Mining using the new accessory at Gold Basin.Doc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doer Posted October 2, 2010 Report Share Posted October 2, 2010 Even by enlarging it, can't see the new accessory in the picture? So it lessens EMI, maybe it is an accessory that is put in-line between the coil cable and the detector housing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam Posted October 2, 2010 Report Share Posted October 2, 2010 How much for the dog without The Black Widows? Or can they be sold separately ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sandtrap Posted October 2, 2010 Report Share Posted October 2, 2010 That's what Im hoping for. I have Black Widows. Warning tho> it is a BIG dog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wonderer Posted October 3, 2010 Report Share Posted October 3, 2010 DOC, Was that the special coil you had on the GPX 5000 at the training center so you could turn it on in and around Electrical interferanc like the floresant lights ? And could hunt under power lines ?wonderer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groundrush Posted October 3, 2010 Report Share Posted October 3, 2010 hello Dug Thing is you never go detecting . Do you own a GPX 5000? You state the above as fact , how do you know this . All the besst Adrian A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groundrush Posted October 3, 2010 Report Share Posted October 3, 2010 Can you tell us how and why they work?No dug can you? The point is old armchair prospector , the 5000 works annoying start up scream or not ... It finds gold and it finds gold where other machines have gone before, oops not the qed.

groundrush Posted October 3, 2010 Report Share Posted October 3, 2010 Yes,easy! LOL!!! The 2 Rx windings in anti interference coils receive anti phase(which cancels most common mode noise)just like when you use a DD coil (with certain proviso's) in cancel mode!Fancy you not knowing this!!!!!all the best, dougbut Dug will knowing this help you find more gold.fancy it wont.all the best Adrian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robby_H Posted October 3, 2010 Report Share Posted October 3, 2010 Yes,easy! LOL!!! The 2 Rx windings in anti interference coils receive anti phase(which cancels most common mode noise)just like when you use a DD coil (with certain proviso's) in cancel mode!Fancy you not knowing this!!!!!all the best, dougThis from a guy who just asked someone on his forum if he uses a DD or mono coil on his VLF detector!! :lol:Arm chair expert Doug gets his info from other forums and his neighbor's mate's sister's uncle's brother in law who spends his life blind drunk at the local pub, and the drunk gets his info from the dog tied up at the end of the bar.And... Doug's testing is carried out by the same skilled (and very successful) independent sources who said it wasn't worthwhile upgrading to the 4000 and 4500. Note that these guys all upgraded to 4000s and 4500s!!And... 'Fine Gold' doesn't just target fly dung, it also targets multi gram porous nuggets and specimens that don't respond, or respond poorly if using an earlier model.And... the GPX series does mute the audio when changing timings.And... Minelab could easily mute the audio during start up but I believe the noise is a good diagnostic tool for both the detector and coil. Perhaps they would mute it though if enough people complained. Doug doesn't count. His one eyed biased anti-Minelab opinion, as always, is irrelevant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlakMagnet Posted October 3, 2010 Report Share Posted October 3, 2010 This is a repost from another thread that Doug hijacked:Seriously is anyone still, looking at this guys posts and thinking some sort of logicis going to make a difference to him?The ONLY way to deal with this silly fellowis to STOP posting replies to him.If you want to keep beating your head on a wallthen keep trying to reason with him.It does not work.There is a certain kind of personality that craves any kind of attention even negative attention.This is a case study.

FlakMagnet Posted October 3, 2010 Report Share Posted October 3, 2010 Hi DOC,I can finally see what you are messing with in that photo of Steve H.Nice going, it shows great promise...All the best,Flak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOC Posted October 3, 2010 Report Share Posted October 3, 2010 Yes. It's a Coiltek anti-interference coil. In the shop I always keep one on the demo machines because it is very hard to demo a machine that is going crazy because of all the electrical interference. That Anti-Interference coil has been out for like 10 years and is being used very successfully. It is much better than the cancel mode. Cancel will block noise, but you lose all of your depth.The AI coil gets a bit less depth that a DD coil, but when you are able to work directly under power lines, you open up brand new virgin area.DocDOC, Was that the special coil you had on the GPX 5000 at the training center so you could turn it on in and around Electrical interferanc like the floresant lights ? And could hunt under power lines ?wonderer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New Beeper Posted October 3, 2010 Report Share Posted October 3, 2010 Hey Doc,I think it is a peel and stick layer of some graphite composition that you put on top of the coil to lessen the EMI going toward the control box. It would lessen the EMI from above interferring with the coil too.New Beeper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlakMagnet Posted October 3, 2010 Report Share Posted October 3, 2010 Hi DOCI thought I saw some sort of add-on on the side of Steve's detector box,but that could be a booster of some sort too...Anyway, it's fun to speculate...Flak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOC Posted October 3, 2010 Report Share Posted October 3, 2010 In all fairness I must confess that this accessory was not designed to lessen EM Interference, it is just something that apparently is a by-product. Everyone that has been using the system, there are about 5 out in the field has said the same thing, the detectors are running quieter.I think there may be a couple of reasons for this which are speculation, but we can have more fun with that question when I can show you the complete set up.I hope we have not over-hyped this to the point where it will be a disappointment. Personally I will never prospect with a Minelab Pulse Induction ever again without using this because it makes life much easier. It will also work on the GPX4000, 4500, 4800 and 5000.Doc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
