"The Collection"

[Carl-NC]

As of sometime last summer. I know of at least one other person who collects vintage detectors, that could put me to shame. Hoping he'll drop by here.

Fantastic collection Carl

Carl,

I see a dual antenna unit like a military unit. What frequency does that operate on? I have just completed a 160 meter loop antenna, and it looks a lot like those. I understand by looking at it they are 180 degrees out of phase, and one is for TX and the other is for RX. How good does it work? I am thinking of building one with two loops like that,but having the antennas closer together. they will still be 90 to 180 degrees out of phase. I have an idea for a new type of antenna and processor of returned signal. I have a DSP circuit and a PIC that removes certain phase shifts from different metals (Iron and ground effect) and am going to move to a single Motorola DSP processor that I have used in the past, but in two way radios.

Thanks Carl, and the best collection I have seen!

"I didn't notice any Compass ..."

Judge 2, 4th from the left standing. I also have a Relic Mag 6 parts detector, and recently got a nice 76IB (hip-mount version of the 77IB), and some other Compass that's in pretty rough shape. Looking for a nice 77IB.

"I see a dual antenna unit like a military unit."

The red two-box locator?

Sorry,
there are so many detectors in your collection that I didn't notice the Compass Judge. I also own a Yukon 77IB , you know that older version with a fix angle between the stem and the coil and the single tune knob (a variable condenser opposed to the later coarse and fine control (pots) of the 77 PRO). I also know that the Yukon 76 is the hipmount version of the 77.
Just a question which might be difficult to answer. What MD is you preferred one for iron infested sites (ghost towns)? ...
Regards,
André

Found the frequency

Carl,

I found it, 12.5 Khz and 73.5 Khz.

Hi Robert,
The detector with the blue housing seems to be a White's Coinmaster "Alaskan" und the stem with the two perpendicular black coils could be a Garrett addition to convert a normal Garrett detector (GTI 2500 ?) into a hoard hunter.
Am I right, Carl?
André

[Carl-NC]

Yup, right on both. The black unit is the Bloodhound (?) attachment for my GTI2500, makes it into a two-box locator.

The only iron-infested site I've hunted recently is an old church where the ground was littered with roofing nails. I only had a Tesoro Cortez that day, which did OK, but would like to go back and test the alleged ability of the Compass to "see through" nails.

Hi There,

I just bought a Compass Yukon 77B that has the separate Fine and Course Tuning knobs. I paid $15.00 for it. Was that a good price?

I was shocked at how many AA batteries it took and actually had to duct tape some of the battery holders that were busted. That's the other think, The are 3 bundles of batteries, each holding 4 AA batteries. The top of each bundle has a 9v style battery connector. Do you guys happen to know where I could find those battery holders? Radio Shack maybe?
