$5,000 Coat Hangers vs Metal Dector Challenge

I am not sure if the place should be so much "prepared" and special.
I think it should be a natural place, with usual trash.Real life.

It looks too complicated, there is nothing to be afraid of: after all it´s just regular MD against L rods, let the better win!

Would it be ok if I go there before the contest and throw some coins, rare earth magnets, and scatter a few kilos of chopped up pieces of copper wire in the test field to add to the usual trash found in natural real life places?

Hi,
I think better if field is clean of other stuff... I mean trash that usually is found near urban areas... or farm land too.
Too much tin foil, lost coins, cigarette silvery paper, old paint cans and iron wires etc

Why ?

Easy... if too much trash the MD must perform a HUGE number of attempts before finding the gold-bar.

A HUGE number of attempts mean the LRL operator could do the same... a HUGE number of attempts... and you know... huge numbers possibly end-up with some lucky strike.

No no... we are talking here of a challenge between LRL-method and MD stuff...

Use a clean soil, uniform, possibly sand like... and very few trash and few attempts people can make.

This way who has ability of REALLY locate the target will find it and not by luck.

Are we talking of luck here ? No. We are talking of detectiong stuff before the other player, no need that luck have to interfere in this process.

And what can be wrong if soil is almost clean of trash ?
Both operators MUST be satisfied of this search conditions... cause will not be disturbed by tin foil etc...

Or now tin foil is essential for the LRL-method to work ???

MD has no need of trash to work... I would expect the same from the coat hangers...

Kind regards,
Max

For obvious reasons the place must be unknown from both participants so this is not possible.
Now, "natural" crap, in "natural" concentrations should not be a problem.
Or else you will give the same excuse that LRL proponents uses that the test must be performed in special mood, special terrain , blood iron , and Sun activity...

Not a problem.....
I will go and scatter the trash at the location on the day before the contest, when the contest directors have chosen the location. I will not be a participant. I will only be a witness who points and laughs at the contestants digging up thousands of little pieces of copper wire, coins, and rare earth magnets.

Best wishes,

I'll be more than happy to host those two individuals. Currently I dwell in Chicago and the contest can take place at Indiana Dunes which is less than 2hr away. I'm not concerned about disclosing the location because this place is HUGE and even a prior visit won't help. Since I'm not known to anyone at the forum I can be considered someone neutral. Anyone who decides to come can stay at my home for free (some Polish food and beer can be provided as well)
