    Im going to try the IDX and make a 27DD for it.

    Let me see if I can get this one going.

    Are all the pots lined up so you know which way to wire them.

    I have about 5 questions I dont know the answer to!!

    Undergrund 30-35cm, in normal field. Highly mineralized ground, the depth down to about 25cm.

    Im curious to see what this is in the ground.

    Has anybody done this?

    Steve,

    I think.. it's unlikely that even half of that is usable. My experience is that is becomes unstable mechanically at higher sensitivity settings.. even with a stock White's coil. Plus, the ground will surely be a limiting factor. I will say this though - with careful tuning , the depth is right up there with my Nautilus!

    Another observation - the IDX hits harder on high conductors as compared to say, the TGSL at 14.5kHz.

    I finally tried the IDX-PRO with the DD coil 27cm and is really incredible. 1€ coin to 60cm in the air.

    Works for somebody with 16F690 PIC built VDI?
    It's working!!!!!!!!

    I'm wery happy!

    I have a mistake on pcb. A short circuit took shape in the course of the etching caused the trouble! He came undone. I revise it another time the pcb, before solder the components

    Also MCP607-I/P is right, is even better.

    Been looking at the VDI, and the mcp602.

    is this the right one ? thanks

    RX- om? 20cm round tour?
    made based on this

    TX wire 0.70 - 33 turns - 0.587 mH - 1.6 Ohm parallel capacitor 1 mF
    RX wire 0.2 - 255 turns - 35.6 mH - 90 Ohm parallel capacitor 33nF
