The OKM magnetometer is used in a way to trick you believe it can locate buried things from a long distance. But it does not.
Almost everyone who paid money for OKM long range locators did not find treasure from long distance.
They found only what they can find with a magnetometer that they could build for less than $200.
They want to get their money back from OKM company, but OLM will not give back their money.
Read here to see what people reported in the forum for OKM products:

Would you like to see what sensor is in the Rover C unit?
Check it out and see for yourself.
So Mr Frank please explain how your unit is functioning and what exactly does it detect? We all know that this sensor will only detect ferrite metals and voids.
Here is what's Astrodetect showed us is really inside bionic products.... a cheap Honewell fluxgate magnetometer:

Best wishes,

I have opened a OKM (Future 2005) and i can say that inside the probe, was an array of fluxgate sensors, 8X FLC 100.
These sensors are not from Honeywell and also aren't cheap. The manufacturer is a person from Germany,his name is Stefan Mayer -http://www.stefan-mayer.com/ .
Each FLC-100 sensor costs about 93 Euros(about 120USD).
Now about their performance: they have a true sub-gamma resolution(0.4-1.0) and very good temperature stability. In comparison to FGM-3, the FLC sensor is superior in terms of sensitivity and stability.
Now ,we know that OKM uses very good sensors, but FAILS (an Epic Fail!) to deliver a true magnetometer.
Why is this? simply because the sensors are oriented in a line, and there is no difference if they use 1 ,2,8,or even 1000 sensors. This geometry can serve only as a sensitive and expensive compass, nothing else really.
As the operator walks slowly in order to scan an area,even the smallest movement of the probe, can cause large variations in readings. These variations usually are in the region of 250-400 gammas, almost an order of magnitude above typical targets.
Now about Bionic, as far as I know, the first versions had simple coils for TX-RX .
