This would lead us to look at the location where points and dig a hole to see if there is some copper buried below where the metal detectors didn't find it. Then remove the copper and check again for a signal. When we see there is no signal from the field, then we can place the 1 kg copper target to test. If we can't get the "barren" field clear of signals that the Examiner responds to, then I guess we need to find a different test field that will work.
I wouldn't attempt this test until after I got a confirmation from Rangertell that the Examiner is working ok. At least this is the best way I figured to do it so far. Do you have any suggestions?
Best wishes,

Thanks for your reply. As I understand it...you are not talking about a false reading or signal. The scenario you have explained indicates the gadget located an item it was supposed to locate. Not false at all.
I understand you want to make sure the test site is void of copper targets, now that you have further explained the protocol
Thanks for clearing that up.
