Hi WM6,
He only reported from the European area.
But this metal locator was originally sold in the USA by the thousands.
So I know from all the treasure recovery reports that it is working in the USA.
And I remember a report from Belgium and from South America that it was working in those places too.

Actually, I have not had a reason to even think about this locator for a long time until now when kahyal says help me- help me , i need a pistol detector project -schematic
Then, I soon learned that he would accept only a a pd that detectors metals --- not an electrostatic detector.
This is the only full schematic of a PD which detectors metals that I could think of.
So I try to remember from old forum posts that are no longer online.

It is good that I saved the circuit diagram.
I have had to correct this schematic several times to make it accurate for the original design.
There are several similar circuits which are modifications of this original factory design.
But I believe I have arrived at the original design using the original parts, or a close substitute part that will perform the same.


Best wishes,
J_P
