Is MFD (frequency generators) dead?

[Mike(Mont)]

Well, it sure is on this forum! I think this whole forum should get a name change to "People who are afraid of L-rods" because that is most descriptive.

I guess I can understand some of it. You get someone who does not know enough about the frequency generators and they get signals everywhere or just weak flickering ones that fade away. I'll bet most people got frustrated and quit. And of course the big cop-out is to blame the equipment or the seller. There's a little truth in every myth. The frequency generators take extreme patience, persistence, practice. Not many people have that.

I've been using L-rods for a long time and I still learn new stuff. For starters I highly recommend you only use one L-rod, not two. I'd say that is number one thing. Maybe I could hang a title on me saying "I am afraid of two L-rods." Well, I'm not afraid, just that I found it works so much better. Of course I have my techniques how I use the rod. That's what i was explaining about Y-rods that whatever you use, try to find out all you can about it--different ways to make it work for you. More later.
