I have not seen this happen yet. What is the reason?

Are they still trying to protect the propriety of the Alonso design? Well guess what? We found out this design was copyrighted years ago by the Heathkit company when they designed the main circuit. -- So no problems here. Even if the circuits were proprietary, they do not have to be revealed in order to win the $25,000 prize.

So what other reason?
Are the owners of the working Alonso replicas finding so much valuable treasure that they don't have time to waste on some small $25,000 prize?

Detection via pistol demmand some conditions imposed by nature, as target will be stay buried in soil for some years. So, the only possibility for to show his success is finding the items in the terrain. Also exist this problem: for to be detectable a coin at 1 meter depth and some meters (5-10), the target need stay buried intact (no movement of terrain, for example) for 100 years. The same item can be detectable at few centimeters buried 3 to 5 years, etc. Mineralization of soil also influences here (iron terrain).

In this theme is the nature "who write" the rules, no Carl, not you, no Sam Scaffieri, no everybody. But in the past Alonso was capable for to detect outside the soil at sight many meters... (no Heathkit here)
