    I'm wondering if a safety razor can be detected with a PI or VLF detector, since it appears to have a similar signal to the needle and ground with a lot higher strength. And if it is detected what target indication do you get? Thanks

    I think the statement about the ferrite is wrong. I had just recorded the ferrite on a different coil for another thread and the signal didn't decay to zero. Tried some things this morning. If I unbalance the coil so that the trace looks like the needle trace I can make the trace look like the no target trace with the needle, 2 blade safety razor, ferrite core and some clay from the yard. No visual indication at turn off with either target. The ferrite and razor don't need to be as close to the coil to balance it. All the other targets I tried wouldn't balance the coil.

    Was comparing some other targets with the hypodermic needle I have. PI amplifier out during coil on time with an IB coil. Some clay from the back yard and a couple different ferrite beads look close if not the same. When Nupi's needles arrive I will do a better comparison. Does anyone have an idea why the hypodermic needle would cause a signal similar to ferrite? Maybe Nupi's needles will be different.

    Thanks for sending them. I checked the address I gave you to see If it was correct. It was, maybe slow mail.

    The needle was laying on the coil. Same signal with less amplitude when farther away

    Hi green,
    I assume you have received the hypodermic needles?
    Which of the three needles that I sent you, did you use?
    I haven't received them yet. It's the same needle I was using.

    It's been awhile and I forgot the aluminum was cut from a can and not foil.
