Post your input on why LRL will not work.
I could not get anyone to work for me,
AM radio,oscillator with antenna on them and
mystical science.
MY conclusion is pure bull$hit and snakeoil.

I'm working in it and later post a treasure detector via magnetic absorption, so if you start with your negativity, I'll stop. :angry:

What distance does the magnetic absorption detector find treasure on an average day?

I planning a treasure detector, this is, for big items. Absorptive can catch 20 m or a little more, but depth is other theme. I think treasure at more 4 m depth can't be detectable at this distance (30 m), but in vecinity yes.

I don't know why these non ferrous items buried for long time has this characteristic.

It sounds like this will be a true LRL that we can build and test with our own hands. I will be waiting to see the schematic and photos of it finding treasure at long range.

Just like the Energizer Bunny you'll keep on waiting and waiting and waiting and waiting.......................I've been reading this board for a couple of years and read many tales of how well these LRL work yet not one of the advocates has shown any proof other then some usually poor photos. Estaban how about you find a real treasure ie. a big pile of gold then get the media to take photos and video of you with it. Or better still buy a private jet ( G550's are really nice and only about 40 Million $ us) and fly up to collect Carl's $25,000 prize money. When you can do either of them maybe you will have a few more belivers:lol::lol::lol:.

Don't have the luck for to find big treasure, as the most of us in forum.

The poor photos I have is the only, the major part old photos made with amateur cameras, no National Geographic quality, sorry!

Sorry to say this; but my experiences are very same here.:frown:

"Best" i achieved so far is locating remote AC fields with Zahori, and nothing else.
Locating "inactive" metals on longer ranges - never.:frown:

Somehow i have feelings that must be something much different in nature preferences between south America and east Europe, where i live.Since nobody here cant locate coin at more than 30-40cm in the ground or in the air - no significant differences.
Locating/detecting single 2cm coin burried at 50cm in the ground....would be improbable success here, among my kind of people.
So we are mostly trying to construct such device, to achieve at least those fantastic 50cm in ground for single coin...
About other things....i simply can't tell.

The solution is obvious. The long range locators made in South America were constructed by South American builders who calibrated them to the local South American ground. When you build a LRL in Eastern Europe, then you must re-calibrate it to work in Eastern European ground.

What is the difference?
1. We all know the earth's magnetic field is different when moving from South America to Eastern Europe. The declination of the field is easily found in a declination table to be different in these two locations. Also the vertical component of the earth's magnetic field is also found to be different, as South America (Paraguay and southern Brazil) is closer to the earth's pole than Eastern Europe.

2. The earth's gravitational field is different when moving from South America to Eastern Europe. The small variations in the strength of the earth's gravitational field is easily found in gravitational field strength map to be different in these two locations.

3. The average daytime electrostatic field in the air is different when moving from South America to Eastern Europe. The differences are dictated by the climate, moisture, air quality, and a number of other geophysical properties that change when sampling the electric field in the air from different locations on the earth's surface. You will also notice the hours of the day when this field is at optimum levels for LRL detection is not the same in South America as for Eastern Europe.

Now, let me try to guess your reasoning why you might think these three geophysical properties are unrelated to the ability to detect long range buried treasure:
"Best" i achieved so far is locating remote AC fields with Zahori, and nothing else".
I am not surprised you only located AC fields with the Zahori. The Zahori is an electric charge detector that is also capable of locating AC fields when tuned to detect portions of alternating electric transmission.

The LRL that Esteban described works by detection non-ferrous metals from long distance using the principle of magnetic absorption, not by detecting electric charges in the air. So Esteban is talking about a completely different design than the Zahori. I would suspect Esteban's design utilizes coils to detect variations in magnetic absorption rather than an electric charge-detecting antenna as the Zahori uses. So maybe we cannot expect a Zahori to be comparable to the detector that Esteban plans to post the schematic for.

So the final question: Will Esteban's magnetic absorption LRL work in Eastern Europe?
The answer depends on several things:
1. Does Esteban's magnetic absorption detector find metals long distance in South America? If no, then it probably won't detect long distance in Eastern Europe either.
2. Does Esteban's magnetic absorption detector rely on detecting existing weak magnetic fields, or does it broadcast its own magnetic field and detect the absorption into long-time buried metals? If it has it's own transmitter, then the chances are good it will work in Eastern Europe as well as South America. But if it is a passive detector, relying on existing ambient magnetic fields, then you can be certain it will not work the same in Eastern Europe as in South America. It may not work in Eastern Europe at all, or it may work better than in South America, depending on how well it is tuned for Eastern European ambient magnetic fields that can be sensed by the detector.
3. Are there existing magnetic fields or electric fields that will interfere with the operation of the Esteban LRL detector in Eastern Europe? Remember, Esteban's detector will be calibrated in Paraguay where there is most likely less man-made interference than most of Europe. So this could be a big problem to prevent this detector from working in some locations far away from Paraguay.

Main reason i dont think that is possible is due very strong ground preferences comparing to very weak (for example) coin preferences, if any (arround coin).
We do know (and can measure) several ground preferences. We dont know and certainly cant measure neither one coin preference (burried coin).
We also do know that coin will produce alternating, short lasting and very weak em fileld IF EXPOSED to much stronger EM field came from search coil.
That is all we know...and all we can proove.
So.... it is true what you explained reffering soil preferences in south America and east Europe...but we dont have benefits from knowing these things, here. Those fact will not help us here at all.
Point is to locate burried coin at more than ... 40cm BURRIED in the ground.
If Esteban's device do the same thing as conventional detector...than..what is the point of making it? We already do have excellent detectors.
I might be shortminded and stupid but i dont see any possible chance to achieve more than it was already achieved with conventional methods utilising EM field as main preference.
I am posting here pretty simplified draw to explain more why this is not possible.
Coin does not have neither one preference which we can monitor over soil surface. Soil surfaces preferences will always blank and cancel everything what possibly coming from burried coin.
Ask anybody of e.e.'s here on this forum.
Ask Carl Moreland, ask Quiaozhi, ask Sean Goddard...ask anybody..

THE TRUTH IS,

In 1987 Randi, conducted eight DB tests on the Omnitron MFD, in front of witnesses, and camera crew on a public beach in Florida. Six (6) of the DB tests were reported at the end of the day to be accurate (75%). Randi, stated to me in the presence of witness that more tests would have to be conducted to reach any conclusions.

In later years Randi, lied about me, and the tests to the public claiming that no test ever took place, and accused me of being a liar, fraud and scammer.

When confronted with Video proof of the test Randi changed his lie to, the Omnitron did not work. Carl, supported Randi's lies with his own by claiming that the DB tests never took place, that the results were based on visible tests where I could see the Gold, or Silver.

Carl, was not there, has no way of knowing, and has lied about the Omnitron DB test results in support of Randi's, efforts to defame my name and lifelong reputation of honesty.

Two liars with a self promotion Challenge gimmick, do not make a right. Dell

Again, i guess i am a bit shortminded, simply i can not understand working principle of those devices!? Simply i cant! I cant figure what coin preference you are able to monitor with your apparatus? Coin is small,metal thing, light weigth,small mass,small size...Usually if burried in ground it is absolutelly blanked/canceled by surrounding ground itself...So far i havent been able to
"sense" or any other way monitor such small metal item...except in cases when it is at very shallow depths..and even than;only with some very good metal detector - no other way..

But the surrounding soil is less in density and conductivity. A solid coin has special electric and/or magnetic characteristic when buried for long time.

If Esteban's device do the same thing as conventional detector...than..what is the point of making it?Hmmmm... What have we here?
It seems you are presuming that Esteban's detector works on the principle of detecting eddy currents generated by a metal detector search coil. But wait...
Esteban said his treasure detector detects via magnetic absorption, not by detecting induced eddy currents. I am sure any EE will tell you it is not practical to detect induced eddy currents from a long distance, but what do these EEs know about detecting magnetic absorption anomalies?

In the case of Esteban's proposed magnetic absorption detector, there are more forces at work than just the absorption of magnetism. It is presumed that long-time buried non-ferrous objects are capable of developing other physical properties in the surrounding soil due to dissolved traces of metal which change the soil composition enough to produce anomalies that can me measured at a greater distance than an eddy current detector.

It has been well documented by scientists all over the world that long time buried metals including gold will dissolve and actually form a column of ions that move upwards toward the surface of the soil. These ions are in-effect part of a ground battery as long as they remain as ions, and are capable of interacting with not only the magnetic properties of the ground, but also the electrostatic properties of the air in the local area where the metal is buried.

Now, knowing that Esteban's detector does not work on the principle of detecting induced eddy currents, how can you prove it doesn't work? The only method I know to prove whether it works is to watch it succeed or fail at finding long time buried non-ferrous metals.

I have designed a apparatus wich monitoring ambient. In place with high conductivity (include cartridge of brass) the apparatus can't center well the target but demonstrates (for this apparatus) how "infernal" (for this antenna based apparatus) can be the electric field. Lead only is detectable when you are over the target with short beeps. Round objects better, include stainless-steel coin, but at short distance. When you walk the antenna is affected in front and laterals, not very directional it is, and I can comprobe that this apparatus can detect the conductive item near a car! So imagine you the magnitude of the field for this antenna milivoltmeter + equalizer (or comparator) + amplifier + beep generator.

THE TRUTH!
Yes, and there are even more "Cover Up" lies published by Randi, supported by Carl.

After denying that he never, ever conducted such a test, and publicly branding Dell Winders, as a liar and fraud with his slander Randi, with a brilliant flash of memory seemingly based on the portion of the video I provided suddenly decided to write a complete report about the test 19 years later, after the fact. A test Randi, adamantly claimed never, ever happened at any place, at any time, any where on this earth. That is until after I publicly published documented proof the event did indeed take place when, where, and exactly as I described.

The Photos supplied by Carl, shown in Randi's articles are NOT the Frequency Discriminator used in the test, and are totally unrelated to the event. Again, provable.

I have the documeted, witnessed proof of what I say is true. Randi, no doubt knows the truth also. He was the HOST, and is aware that I was invited to performhis tests under FALSE PRETENSES, but can't admit it because of potential libel. Carl, has been wise in not admitting his wrong doings for the same reason.

So, who are the liars? Dell

Then, without knowing where it is buried, you are led to a field and told it is somewhere in a 100 meter square in front of you. At this point you send your dog to locate the treasure, using whatever apparatus you think is appropriate to help create a "signal line".

If you wanted to remove all traces of the other person's scent from the test, then find an area where you know there are long time buried metal objects, so no other person is involved, then direct the dog to go find the treasure. Europe is full of these areas, as well as the Americas in locations where there were wars.

So, to you think a space alien can perform as well as a trained dog?

Like the politicians say, I don't deal in the hypothetical unless you are referring to the creatures that come ut of the local high school.

The guy told me some days the dog does not hit the signal line. Even though he moved the dog to a different spot, he came right back to the "wrong" spot as if there was a signal line there.

It just occurred to me that the dog might have locked on to a more distant target???

From what I understand, the dog does not put his nose to the ground to sniff, but he said he did nose the ground as some dogs do when pointing. I'll try to get some more details from the guy who trained his dog.

I just got an idea. I've seen some restaurants sell food with edible gold foil on it. Do a google search for edilbe gold leaf, they sell silver, too. Seems like you could wrap up a dog treat with the foil, then recycle a day later.:lol:

In reply to post #45, if the dog don't hunt treasure maybe you can hold his paws near the faucet to charge him up???:lol:
