Now this that's really surprising to me... see that stuff used for LRLs too I mean! It's very basic circuit , kind of hartley osc...

Which kind of signal variations you read in presence of a gold target ?

And which is the range you noticed from it LRL behaviour in relationship with which target/size ?

Kind regards,

This is not the only circuit. This works as resonance off. Amplifier circuit uses a LM358 and 4066. Also a radio and beeper, so is 2 detector in one.

Distance for small things can be 5 m, a treasure can be detected at 30 m.

I don't read nothing, I hear the beeps!
