Mike's evolving theory on false MFD responses

[Mike(Mont)]

A couple weeks ago Dell Winders described how he uses a Natural EM Meter to detect solar magnetic interference which weakens or blocks MFD signal lines. I was watching my meter during some interference and when one surge hit, I experienced a sensation exactly like what I call the ion buzz when I cross a discriminated MFD signal line.

Today I was watching the meter move around and I experienced weak, fluctuating locating conditions with several errant hits. So, this might not be exactly what is happening, but it appears to me that the fluctuation magnetic conditions create a surge which I can feel and misinterpret as a good signal, while the actual signal is weakened. I realize this is pretty much what Dell has described for the last twenty-five years, but I have never understood what causes the false responses until now.
