A worldwide collaborative design group for the purpose of developing commercial detectors. Please drop in and see what we are doing!

General tech discussions on all types of metal detectors: VLF, PI, 2-box, BFO, off-resonance, PLL, etc. Questions, ideas, and anything else that moves you.

Same as the Tech forum, but coil-specific.

Detector mods, plus any other useful add-ons.

If you have a schematic to share, post it here. Please read the Intro post for rules on posting schematics.

Tech discussions on mags.

Tech discussions on sonar, transducers, and towfish construction.

Other geophysics techniques, including earth resistivity, GPR, infrared, induced polarization, etc.

Vacuum forming, coil winding, packaging... anything mechanical.

Cool circuits, tips, techniques, PCB methods, test equipment, etc.

A differential front-end PI design originated by Moodz and open for community development.

An induction-balanced PI design originated by Tinkerer and open for community development.

The goal of this forum is to produce a workable GPR design that can be home-built.

A basic PI design with all parameters variable, intended as a learning platform for pulse induction.

A basic PI design incorporating a PIC micro for timing control, intended as a learning platform for using uC's.

An advanced and scalable PI design using a PIC micro for timing control and signal processing.

JL King's microcontroller-based PI design with LCD readout & USB interface

For those building Tesoro circuitry

A microcontroller-based PI design in active development

General info on how to use PIC-USB, and how to incorporate USB into your detector design.

Detectors, parts, electronics, and so forth. No dealer restrictions.

Buy-Sell-Trade-Discussion specifically for treasure mags, books, & other publications.

Pics & info on vintage detectors, for those who like "the good ol' days" of digging everything.

Those who have products & services they would like to advertise may do so here. Please read the Intro post.

A forum for everything else. Detector & non-detector posts are fine. No adverts, no cussin', no spittin'.
