Any technical infos yet how it works?

Did you notice the date at the top of the article? ... June 3rd 2006 8:10PM.
The article is 5 years old, and I bet you will never find a copy of any report from Chile's Universidad Tecnológico Metropolitano concerning this device.

Hmmm...
This reminds me of another dated LRL project....
A homemade long range locator which was called "Ultra Sensitive EM-Field % Current Detector".
It was shown to detect a helicopter flying from an amazing 400 meter distance, and a train at 300 m distance.
After looking at the construction technique, a question came to mind...
"Is this an EM detector, or is it really a high gain transistorized vibration detector placed in a sound box?"
As it turned out, the person who built the contraption did not consider it important to find out the answer to that question.

Another mystery from the museum of hard-to-believe LRLs...

OK, next time I'll ask f B i or C i A, i hope they know more.


Hi J_Player

I have no idea what you really want to know.

This was just an improved very sensitive and "grounded" EM-Field detector because alot
of that so called LRLs here seems to work with it like the Gold-Gun etc.

All in all I think it was a wrong advise - it does not detect untouched metal from
a distance but strong magnetical pulses and fast field-changes.

btw. perhaps I have now the solution why the LRLs could work:

Perhaps large metal objects can create "wind-shadows" of the north-south magnetical
field lines. This would make sense if you have to search in north south direction with
Mineoro.

And some passive receivers just check the amount of longwave concentration.
So far I hadn't time for LRL stuff.


@ Qiaozhi

I've seen the date so now, 5 years later, there should be a much better chance
getting information about this device, if it really found treasure, if it was a fake
and how it works.

However this vehicle is full of metal plus a big battery so any usual MD circuit
shall not work. btw. I don't know if it's still in use.
Top secret or not - the Chilenean are cooking with water, too...

Hi Funfinder,
Actually there is nothing I want to know.
If you think the FBI or CIA know something about this device, you may ask them if you think it is a good idea. But I don't have any use for information they might tell about the amplifier in a cigar box.
From what I have seen, I have a fairly good idea of how this EM-Field detector works. I am sure I could duplicate its performance and probably improve the sensitivity if I had some reason to.

But you cannot claim it works like the Gold Gun.
The Gold Gun has a balanced VLF tuner in it, which this contraption in the cigar box does not. While the Gold Gun looks for a null point in VLF reception, the circuit in the cigar box is simply a collection of amplifier stages with various input options, and with loose wires that are allowed to rattle inside the box, and with a coil that is also able to rattle to some extent.

While I doubt the amplifier in the cigar box it is detecting EM fields or even magnetic pulses from 300 meters, I also doubt the Arturito is useful for finding treasures.
I suppose the lack of evidence since the time the fantastic claims were made was a deciding factor in both cases.

Best wishes,
