Hi,
you mean that without the generator you use l-rods and works at few distance (for you) but using l-rods+signal generator you gain 500m range ???

But Geo... which kind of generator are you using ? Isn't something like the Dell's omnitron thing ? I mean... you inject something square wave into the soil... just have 20Vpp at output ?

Personally I don't trust l-rods but maybe you're experienced with them or have some ability I haven't. I simply don't know, but the signal gen stuff seems interesting: how do you feel more detection range ? Just your idea or you actually found something that way ?

Kind regards,
Max
