Only real proof only please.

When Clondike Clad started this thread, he asked for only real proof and photos of the finds. We see photos of finds, but where is the proof?
There are only two ways I know to prove a detector will find a target:
1. Watch someone use the detector to find targets and recover them.
2. Build an identical detector and see if it finds a target.
If a radio engineer says a detector can't work, this is not proof of anything except his opinion. It would not matter if this opinion came from a radio engineer, or a professional dishwasher, or a Nobel Prize laureate. It will remain an opinion until the working of the detector has been observed to be true in fact.
In the case of most metal detectors, we have proof they work when we go to the place where people are using them and watch them recover buried metal targets. In the case of Carl's Hammerhead PI, we have proof it works because we can build it from the instructions he provided, and test it in our own hands to see the proof it works. But in the case of LRLs we have neither of these proofs. An internet forum cannot show proof by watching the owners of a LRL recover treasure. But it can easily show proof by showing the schematics and instructions for building our own copy of the detector and testing it in our own hands. But this proof has never been shown like it has been for many other metal detectors.
So what we have is only opinions about whether the LRLs work. No proof. Robert cannot prove they don't work even if he is absolute ruler of the world, or if he is only a professional dishwasher. The only proof that can be shown in an internet forum is a circuit diagram and coil construction details without errors to let people test for themselves if it works. Without this, there is no proof that a LRL works.
So we see only opinions here, when Clondike Clad asked for real proof.
