Thanks dear Geo,Originally posted by Geo View PostHi all.
i will try to answer slowly slowly...
For Jack and everyone who constructed the rod.
Before make any tests, must check if the generator works.
So a oscilloscope or a frequencycounter is needed. Output of 555 gives a signal with frequency about 30....700Hz. The output of 4017 gives a signal with frequency 3...70Hz about and duty cycle 10%. With a frequency meter you can check it.
If generator is ok then you can begin to play with dowsing...
Good luck

i make another device like your device, but i detect gold by 5000Hz frequency...
which is correct?
and about duty cycle:
you say your device duty cycle is 10%,
you don't think that duty cycle for example 50% is better and give us stronger signal for detect more distance objects ?"GOD BLESS YOU"

I don't know what is happening with 5Khz at my Lrod, i wrote what i have and the frequences that i work with it. Now about duty cycle.... i wanted to have more time for receiving, especially for "low sensitive" dowsers.

A couple of observations here. FIrst off, Geo you have a lot to learn. I do not think you know dowsing or LRL enough to expalin it to non-users. What you are talkiing about is simply rod control. That's important and it is necessary for both dowsing and LRL, but like I said, dowsing is mental discrimination. LRL is physical discrimination.
I guess I can see what you are gettng at--someone who cannot use a locator in the first place will likely not get it right on the first build. I can certainly see that if the balance is not correct, that device you built will not work very well, possibly not at all. That's one reason I suggest to use it as a stationary transmitter and walk around it with L-rods to find the signal line to the target. That is why I have been saying (and I guess you are saying the same thing) a person should buy a low-priced unit and learn to use it before doing any experimentation. Vernell Electronics sells one for $285. That's going to remove a lot of the doubt and the likeliness of faulty construction on a do-it-yourself project. Again I will say by placing the transmitter on the ground and walking around it with L-rods, you are going to get a lot more accuracy than any handheld device.

It is not easy for someone who don't know dowsing to keep the Lrod very stable and balanced when he walk. He need long time to learn it, this is the reason that i say "if he is not a dowser to let it".Originally posted by Mike(Mont) View PostA couple of observations here.

This Lrod is more easy and simple than a generator who gives the signal in the ground via 2 electrodes, and ofcourse is very cheap. Who is better ..... this is another story or we can see it at another thread.Geo

Very good.Originally posted by jack View PostI'm in my Geo 3 IC 4017 and the collector base 547 between 30-70 Hz frequency.
Now I try to test the practicality of this device؟
tank you dear geo
It is better to buried a piece of copper or Al and let it there for 1...2 months. Or if you know a place with buried objects then it is more better. Walk slowly slowly with the Lrod balanced (the antenna must be at horizontal position), and change the potentiometer until antenna turns to the object position. When you will make it, dig and take out the buried object and mark the position of potentiometer. At this position you will locate only metals same with that you found in the ground...
Good Luck
Geo
