hello franco what is the gold and silver phenomenon values ​​under the ground? Is it possible for you to provide information on this subject?

Unfortunately I don't have these data, official science doesn't recognize the phenomenon, I can only tell you that personally (like other forum members) I believe in its existence, having built and used tools that prove it. It is a complex phenomenon that acts on a wide range of frequencies and therefore it is possible to build instruments that rely on different frequencies. For now I have not been able to establish whether the phenomenon is the same for each type of metal and therefore there is a possibility of discrimination. Iron is certainly not detected and this is a nice plus.

Actually I have a specially made device .33khz sine wave is applied to the ground with two cables laid on the ground. There is a tda2030 audio output circuit. only amp values are changed. The receiver part is divided into 3 with a 3-step switch and fine-tuned with a potentiometer. Between 16khz and 19khz between 19khz and 22khz between 22khz and 26khz. There is no connection between the receiver and the transmitter. The antenna in the receiver is about 40 cm long. a coil is wound on a core as an antenna.

I think it is a system derived from geophysics.

I have improved the performance of my lrl, I cannot say exactly how much, as I no longer have the original test field available, however in my current land there is a point where the original lrl signaled a weak signal right nearby, instead with the modification there is a fairly strong signal at about 2 m. The modification essentially consists of increasing the frequency of the quartz to 20 Mhz and of tuning L1 / C10 on a harmonic frequency of the quartz. In addition, I made R10 as trimmer to vary more easily the gain of the sensor stage. I have also improved the display stage by putting a fine adjustment and a coarse to make tuning easier. In this way it is possible to "lock" the output voltage of the sensor stage for a wide voltage excursion. The oscillator circuit has been modified to obtain a waveform as distorted as possible, furthermore the frequency of the quartz has been increased to 20Mhz. In this way, harmonics are also generated, one of which (I suppose the 4th or 5th) is tuned with the resonant circuit L1 / C10. For this reason C10 is now a variable capacitor. I also attach the diagram of the power stage. However, any circuit that provides stabilized 12 V is fine. In my diagram I have put a red led that flashes when the voltage drops below 15.5 V. I also enclose a new "help". It is almost essential to have an oscilloscope available, in fact the values of the oscillator components vary greatly depending on the type of quartz,there are types of quartz harder than others to make oscillation. The calibration of the sensor stage serves to obtain the maximum gain without having oscillations.

I modified the help, in fact I realized that if the oscillator signal is too wide, it is difficult to set up as the signal reaches the base of TR2 also due to parasitic coupling.

good day

Mr.franco Italy
thank you for sharing project and helping others

don't know if someone asked or no but why you don't use ready oscillator
instead of crystal?
because running high frequency xt is a little bit hard at least at no projects i had success
so, i always use ready oscillators except projects that XT runs by microcontrollers.
i think many members that built your L.R.L also couldn't run XT but they don't know

thank you

You are right, you could also use the "ready oscillators", but I find that the quartz version is the simplest, even most oscillates even without the capacitor between the emitter and the base of the transistor, in the range 2 - 10 Mhz in my opinion is the best choice. The same scheme also works with 20 Mhz, but it is more critical, also because we are at the frequency limit for quartzes that work in fundamental (harmonic). Furthermore it is necessary to have a waveform as distorted as possible, to have many harmonics and a signal of small amplitude in order not to radiate towards the sensor stage.

Hi FrancoItaly
I made your LRL with SMD components, but I don't know how much to tune the potentiometer screws to adjust it? (I'm looking for gold)
But sometimes when I tune the potentiometers, and walk to the refrigerator door, the LED lights up and the speaker beeps, and when I walk away from the refrigerator, the lights go out and the speaker does not beep!
Also, when I walk to the place where the toilet well has been dug, the lights and speakers turn on!
Does this device detect a magnetic field or ions?
Best Regards

I don't know (and I don't know if there is) a frequency just for gold. It is normal for there to be many sources of disturbance in the home. Very little is known about the phenomenon, indeed according to "normal" science it does not exist. In my opinion, since it works with an antenna, it is an electromagnetic field.

I would like to warn those who intend to make the 20Mhz version of my lrl to wait because, while the first one works perfectly, the other two, which I did later, have problems with signal instability. I am making substantial changes and think I have solved the problem. I will post the changes as soon as possible.

Good afternoon Franco! Reading about a new project at 20 MHz, you constantly repeat that the waveform at the output of the generator should be DISTORTED as much as possible. Is this so or is it a translation error?

It is not an error, a distorted signal means that it contains harmonics of higher frequency, in our case: fundamental = 20Mhz, second harmonic = 40Mhz, third = 60Mhz, fourth = 80Mhz, fifth = 100 Mhz, always with decreasing amplitude. The L1 / C10 resonant circuit is tuned to one of these harmonics (I think 80 Mhz or 100 Mhz) and this makes the sensor stage more sensitive.

C1 is 10 nF, in the previus version was 22 nF, however it is not very important, however too high values, 100 nF and more, can slow down the response, especially if you search with fast scans.

In the L1 / C10 resonant circuit, by varying the capacitance of the capacitor, we see the amplitude of the signal, at the output of the sensor stage, increase when a harmonic of 20Mhz is reached, and then decrease moving away from it.

The 20 Mhz lrl is a improvement of 8 Mhz lrl, C10 in the 8 Mhz sensor stage has been replaced with a variable capacitor.

Your document mentions that the tr5 emitter output should reach 5v, but the use of double-sided large-area copper-clad PCBs cannot reach 5v, only about 2v, but it does not affect the sensitivity of electromagnetic field reception. So I think that the output voltage of tr5 has nothing to do with it.

If the tuning has been done correctly, any value in the 2 - 6V range is fine, this value is not critical.

I am very responsible to tell you that after hundreds of experiments by many of us, including single-panel and double-panel, we have replaced various capacitors and transistors, and finally came to the conclusion that it may ring in the wild, but it is not right. Metal responds, it only responds to electromagnetic fields, such as dialing mobile phones, electric sparks, but underground metal cannot have such a strong magnetic field, and underground metal has no electric field. No matter how large the electric field, it will be displayed underground, including powerful lightning. As long as it enters the ground, it will disappear. A small number of people say that metal has been detected. This is an irresponsible statement, even to hype their products. So far, no LRL is really useful, so you Don’t worry about suspecting that you haven’t done it well, because it is useless in the first place, so you can never do it well.

In the past I have already said several times that I can say that my lrl works where I live, in Italy and in Switzerland where I have lived for some time but I cannot say it for other countries. You can only say with certainty that my lrl does not work in your country, assuming you have done a correct tuning. What evidence do you have that my lrl does not work in other countries? The "phenomenon" is not recognized by official science, also because it has never been studied in depth, is this enough to say that it does not exist? According to official science, the diviner is impossible to find water, but this activity has existed for millennia. Only a few days ago a company came to my land to build a well, a diviner, which works with the company, said "dig here" and at a depth of 60 m there was plenty of water, 60 liters per minute.

The fact that there is a resonant circuit (L1 / C10) implies that in some way the frequency is important and in my opinion there are 2 possibilities, one is that the phenomenon emits in a wide range of frequencies and therefore also in the FM range (about 80 - 110 Mhz), the other possibility is that the phenomenon interferes with the signal emitted by transmitters in this range but in this case the lrl would have to detect this signal source in a directive way, which does not happen.

Let me tell you the truth, this circuit is made of double-sided copper clad laminate, and the output is only a little bit. When made of single-sided copper clad laminate, the output is more than two volts. It does not matter how much the output is. As long as it can be compared in the end, there is no adjustment for l1 and c10. Meaning, within the range of 100pf, or even greater, its sensitivity has not changed much. It can react to the sky or some ground, but this is only a problem of geographic magnetic field and has nothing to do with metal. Don’t say you succeeded. In fact, no one has ever seen you, nor can you know that you succeeded or failed. You always like to hear others say that you succeeded, and you hate others to say no.

Hello Franco
You write:
We cannot use an oscilloscope for measurements in the sensor stage and for the adjustment need only one voltmeter is required to connect to the output of the filter R16, C18 without the use of the oscillator.
If we have 2-4volts DC output, this means that the sensor stage is working properly without oscillations.
But .... we can have oscillation, because a voltmeter can not show it and let us have an output in the range 2-4v DC
My question.
Can we use the oscilloscope to properly adjust the trimmer on the TR3 emitter or is it practically setting in the field?
Please explain more

in the helps I wrote: "For the first test do not connect quartz then look at out point, the DC voltage must be 0V.". The sensor stage output is always a DC voltage, rectified by the two diodes. This voltage is the rectified 8Mhz signal. The use of the oscilloscope is only for verifying the proper functioning of the oscillator. Outdoors there is no need for any adjustment other than the threshold and gain in the stage display.

Rubin

Thanks for your quick reply.
After checking I saw that. With the trimmer calibration min-max in the emitter TR3 the output to the filter is not 0V DC (without oscillator), but output is 50mv-150mv. So i think we cannot have 0V DC because the diodes produce this increase signal
Ofcourse (without oscillator, coil and antenna) if we touch the input, the output is >8V DC. This is correct?
I repeat again i use only sensor stage without oscillator coil and antenna

No, the out sensor stage must be 0V DC, if this is not the case it means that there is still self oscillation, indeed even with 0V volts there could still be a small signal due to the voltage threshold caused by the diodes. In addition, the antenna (even a piece of wire) must be connected because it contributes to the possible self oscillation.

I keep as your last update the same values for R10 = 1K trimmer, R2 = 220R and "play" with capacitors values for 0V DC output.

What you did is very interesting, did you keep L1 / C10? If so, have you tuned the transmitter frequency with L1 / C10? I too am experimenting with an FM oscillator that I made, my problem is that the signal is always too strong and saturates the sensor stage, I have tried unsuccessfully to shield the oscillator and further decouple the oscillator power supply.

i transfer pp key of module on the box to adjust the frequency of transmitter

Thank you for the information, I also invite other members to experiment. The fact that two equal frequencies arrive at the mixer (TR2 base) makes it much more sensitive. With the 20Mhz oscillator my idea was just this, that is to tune L1C / 10 on a harmonic of the oscillator. But even in this case the signal is too strong and unstable.

hi
i use one 10pf cap an one 5k pot in input transmitter signal to base of tr2 to adjust mixing rate of two signals an adjust sensor out put voltage
i believe the most important problem of this device is self oscillation . in my country the circuit self oscillation is variable during the day and night
for example if one body adjust the out put voltage zero at 21 oclock the device work good that this time and no working perfect at another time
there fore i put the one 5k double volume instead of r10 an r12 to adjust the self oscillation. last year i have explained in this forum
dose any body has the information about the gold filter in below schematic??

As time increases, the machine always automatically alarms to prove the sensor The output voltage is rising automatically, so I have to adjust the critical point of 358 frequently.

I am working on the 100 Mhz version and I do not use a module but a transistor oscillator with frequency command with varicap diode, I do not use a coil printed on the pcb, but a flat coil placed horizontally, while on the sensor stage an equal coil but placed vertically , with the aim of minimizing the transmission of the signal from the oscillator to the sensor stage. In this way, a good result is obtained by keeping the oscillator about 7 cm from the sensor stage. As soon as I have finished drawing the scheme I will post it.

At least you need to know the inductance value of L1 to roughly determine the resonance frequency with c10. This requires a high-precision inductance meter.

There is a simpler system, just build the two coils, oscillator and sensor stage, the same and check the output of the sensor stage (DC voltage). When the maximum value is obtained, it means that L1 / C10 is in resonance with the oscillator.

FrancoItaly

The biggest problem is that the specific frequency responds to the metal, or a certain frequency, or any frequency,

In my opinion there is no specific frequency for metals, the phenomenon exists in a wide range from Khz to infrared. All that remains is to experiment and it is very important to have a field where to do the tests, it is necessary to bury the metals, for example gold / silver and wait at least a few months or less, it depends on the type of soil.

If it has nothing to do with frequency, there is no need to adjust L1 and C10, their resonance frequency is much higher than 8MHZ

Hello mr Franco.
I hope you are well.
I have some questions.
First i create sensor stage quartz 8Mhz and is ok (out 5.85V and when I touch the antenna the voltage drops 5.7v dc).
When I connect the antenna amplifier stage (without the display stage) what value should I have at the exit?
I set it with the potetiometer to 5.7v but when I touch the antenna the voltage does not drop. it's correct? (without display stage).
Thank you in advance.

Yes, that is correct, however it is better to try the operation without the antenna amplifier on the test field, also to establish the actual improvement.

Hello Franco. The phenomenon is an invisible light beam of negative electrons similar to a cathode ray. It is the resonance of the material. What you lack is a transmitter circuit to raise the kinetic energy of the photoelectrons, so that they can be easily captured. Your device captures them as stray signals from close distances.

I doubt anyone knows exactly how the phenomenon works, we just know that it works over a wide range of frequencies. All the rest are theories to be proved without considering that whatever is transmitted must reach tens of meters away and be directive. I am convinced that all lrls are passive receivers and even if there is a transmitting led, it cannot get very far.

2-These systems are out of balance with even a very small amount of displacement and an increase or decrease in height.
3-This tracking system is not for distance and radius and you must pass over a buried or buried metal to make a complete and accurate sense.
4-The effect of this phenomenon is not the same and powerful everywhere.
5-In order for the operator to move when exploring, it must first be from north to south and then from south to north (valuable for sensing non ferrous metals).
6-Enough practice. Test and test locations. And you do not have old metal buried.

This new version should be more sensitive than the original one, although it is simpler, unfortunately I have no possibility at the time of doing field tests. Briefly, it's about bringing the sensor stage into self oscillating (in my case about 15 Mhz) and regulating L1 / C1 on a harmonic. This will increase the sensitivity. The setup is different from the other version, in fact here we want the self oscillating of the stage and not avoid it.
Let's see what are the differences from the original version:
- there is no quartz oscillator.
- there are no resistors and capacitors
of emitter, to have the maximum
gain.
- In parallel to L1 there is a capacitor
variable instead of a fixed one.
Self oscillation depends on the following factors:
- the gain of the transistors,
those of type BC ... C are required.
- the value of C3 and C4.
- the drawing of the pcb.
Since this lrl derives from the previous one and is simpler, you can use the same pcb, even the setup is simpler:
Adjust C1 until a voltage in the range 2 - 5 V is obtained at the output of the sensor stage. If the output is> 5V then decrease C3 or C4. If the output is zero, then increase C3 or C4.
Also with this lrl touch the antenna with your hand and check that the signal decreases.

I use BC183C, gain in the range 500 - 800, but the probleme is not the transistors.
Probably the frequency of L1 / C1 = about 40 pF is too low to detect the phenomenon, at least in my area. I want to try to trigger the oscillation by connecting the collector of TR3 directly with L1 / C1 through a capacitor (few pF) and instead of C1 a capacitor of 22 pF.

It's interesting, but I'm not sure it can be used for the sensor stage, as the mixer and the total gain are important. However you can do tests.

The value is not critical, it is in the 1/3 V peak to peak range. Varying C2 / C3 / C4 you get the right voltage value at the sensor stage output. You could also put a semi-fixed potentiometer in place of R3 for easier adjustment.

As about "phenomenon"(Greek word)i think that gold,silver and copper(but mainly gold and silver)when they are placed(burried)for years in the ground(due to their electrochemical reaction with the soil)become something like antennas with the result that when a radio signal hits them it increases(the signal)and we can catch this increase with any LRL...your's or Mineoro e.t.c.

All the lrls are directional, the maximum sensitivity is from north to south, as I said as far as I am concerned, my lrl, tested in Switzerland and in Italy, is insensitive to iron. However in any case it is necessary to use an MD for the final phase, that is, to establish the exact point.

This is due to nature,iron rust and does not make a field around it,while gold and silver
do not rust and make a field around them.


So,if there isn't a radio station tuned to the LRL then LRL does not work.
For this reason Mineoro LRL sometimes work and sometimes not,
depending on the country they are in and if there is a tuned station there!!!:)

The phenomenon is very complex and extends over the entire frequency range ranging from 60Khz to 100Mhz to IR and UV. If it were true that a transmitter is needed then you should have a strong signal in the direction of the transmitter, which does not happen and would make the lrl unusable.

It is not possible to replace a transistor with a normal IC which are basically only for audio frequency due to the too low gain over the Mhz. The CA3130 reaches 15 Mhz but with a gain of one, if you make a 100 Khz RC oscillator with a LM358 you will see that you do not get a square wave (which contains many harmonics over 100 Mhz). Better is the TL081 which at 100 Khz gives an acceptable waveform.

The sensor stage amplifies a signal of 8 Mhz and this with a gain of about 500 X 500 X 500 times, in fact each BC ... C transistor has a beta of 500, this in theory and without counting the losses, but the fact remains that a 100Mhz bandwidth IC amplifies 100Mhz / 8Mhz = about 12 times.

In the northern latitudes of the U.S. the total magnetic field strength is in the order of 50,000 to 55,000 nanoTesla and varies from location to location. Short period variations due to magnetic storms may reach several hundred nanoTesla. Diurnal variations caused by solar induced ionospheric currents are in the order of tens of nanoTesla. Presently, the long term trend of the total field is in the order of minus 90 nanoTesla per year ( steadily decreasing).
The proton precession frequency detected by a suitable sensor in the geomagnetic field of the earth will be at a frequency in the audio range:
Example: 42.58 mHz / Tesla x 52500 x 1E-9 Tesla= 2235 Hz
In my northeast location the frequency readings average about 2275 Hz, corresponding to a total field of about 53,400 nanoTesla. This seems to correlate with published models. This figure also agrees with the value obtained using the fluxgate magnetometer that was calibrated using a Helmholtz coil. The fluxgate sensor was tipped upward from a horizontal position to nearly vertical to obtain the maximum reading of the earth field.

I placed again a 20Mhz version which proved unstable, but simply by changing the quartz from 20Mhz to 14Mhz it became stable, I have verified this with two lrls. This is basically the original 8Mhz version in which I changed the value of the quartz and added several trimmers to facilitate the tuning. By adjusting C10 it is possible to find a point where the signal increases considerably, a sign that it is tuned on a harmonic and this increases the sensitivity of the lrl. You can also try other frequencies, for example 15 Mhz, 16 Mhz, 17Mhz or others. I haven't been able to test on the field yet.

The input P1 trimmer seems that doesn't serve the purpose of its use. I tested two crystals 4M and 16M. The signal at the input of tr2 can not be less than about 50 mV. Imho, your initial design with many 1pf caps in series is a better approach for to increase impedance.

A second issue is the input tank coil. More turns than 3 will give higher sensitivity and higher Q. I made a coil of 8T on a 6mm former to test.

I'd like to ask if you have tested 90 degrees different orientation of the input tank coil than what you currently use. In other words, the coil on your board looks at the sides. Have you tested the operation when it looks forward?

The signal at input TR2 is much smaller than 50mV, consider that the sensor stage is composed of transistors with a gain (direct current) of over 500 each, so the maximum gain is 500X500X500 and the stage would be in saturation without amplifying. I added the trimmer to better adjust the signal to base on TR2 and I found no difference between the two modes. I tried to increase and decrease the number of turns, the lrl only worked with 2 or 3 turns. You have to consider that it is a resonant circuit and increasing the turns decreases the frequency. In the 20 Mhz or 14 Mhz version the L / C is varied to tune on a harmonic of the oscillator and increase the efficiency of the TR2 mixer. Regarding the position of L1 I have not found any difference.

For sure it would contribute in to a more clean amplification of the effect, but if inside the box is not taken in consideration the interaction between oscillator and the rest of the device there would be no way for setting the input level at minimums (due to capacitive coupling). I used a 16Mhz crystal by the way. No stability problems and clean signalling. Tuned to 32Mhz.

Hello Franco !
we have made the original version, we replaced the coil 3 turns with tsok ferrite. I think it goes quite well at 2 maybe 1 meter from a buried object with a phenomenon..the setting is very marginal just before the last led hits and when I turn it to the sky it hits gently..I detect with a slight inclination to the ground. do you think this is a normal function?

The operation is not correct, in the absence of a phenomenon the lrl must remain silent, however it is tilted. I don't think it is not a good idea to use a ferrite since we are in the FM range, around 100 Mhz, normal ferrites do not reach these frequencies.

Hello Franco..I sent a private Message..this was regards to the partslist of your original lrl..I cannot visibly read the values especially ic1 and diodes..Thank u..

when there is no phenomenon there is no signal, you did not understand me..detects normally the phenomenon with very strong signals very close 1-2 meters when there is no problem when my direction is from north to south..but when I raise the antenna in the sky there is a signal from the sky..I make sure to adjust the device and have a signal up to the horizontal position.then I lower the device a little to the ground and the signal stops and I walk when I encounter a phenomenon the device emits a signal .. there is no signal continuously. ... basically I try to find the signals from the sky when they are connected to the earth ...

Usually the sky effect and the compass effect appear when there is too much amplification.

Because of the machine, I got a huge wealth, I detected a lot of gold and silver and bronze, if you haven't succeed in doing, you can ask me why, I will guide you how to adjust

Hi liudengyuand..how did u made the curicuit effective?can u tell us more..

Hey Jhericku
The circuit is effective by itself. Franco designed it very nicely. You don't need to change anything. It confirmed that detects only noble metals and no iron! Mine, it also can not detect copper


Just tune it to a harmonic that gives a nice output and you are there. Location distance not more than 4-6 meters. Works every day no matter the conditions. It is just that depending on the day, the field sometimes is weaker but still detectable.


If anyone likes to go deeper on this, then i suggest you to use a simple voltmeter instead of leds.:)


ps. I use a 16MHz crystal by the way. No stability problems.
