Are you sure?
Arem't there some places and times these detectors won't work?
For example:
1. Inside an MRI machine in a hospital.
2. Searchcoil held 2 inches above the hot lava flow at the Kilauea volcano in hawaii
3. Under a Tesla coil that is sending 10 ft long, 5KW sparks to the searchcoil.

I doubt these conditions would allow consistent readings on your metal detectors. Of course, these are extreme conditions for any metal detector. But don't the LRL proponents talk about extreme conditions for LRLs?

Remember words to teh effect that in order to work, the LRL must be away from electrical noise, no solar activity that interferes, remove clothes that collect static charge, walk and move the LRL slowly, only works good certain hours of the day.

Best wishes,

You do have a point.The problem arise when natural conditions are in stake...that could influence the way LRL works...or donĀ“t.
