BARACUDA-Legend-1

[maikl]

When the power is 9V then TIP127 not heated, and of course the coil L=450uH and R=1R5.

thanks jap i read the original literature/reviews and i understood it as iron tone identification
and earlier on in the thread alexmex was it seemed to me screaming at us "its due to the tip27"(though noone in the thread was listerning to much off topic nonsense)
plus i'm not having that "the switch/trans is unknown" i'm positive the collective brain power of this forum can crack it if properly stimulated as for sinclair
at maikl i designed my barra to run 9v anyway(with the option of going to 10.2 by adding another aa cell

i have a question can i use the coil exelerator eq2 for minelab gpx 4500 on my bara?

Good results from a Wilson Barracuda
Whether slow motion or fast motion.
best time

Nice work! Great machine to use at the beach. Just take a good shovel with you .

Thank you to all who posted all the details of the equipment in this forum, and we can build.
Alexismex, I have a doubt about the value of the resistor that is connected to pin 7 of IC 7660 is 2M2 or 100K.
Thank you.

thank you mister Wilson
you have made a very nice baracuda
please I have some questions.
1-I need to know all transistors names that you use.
2-does your baracuda work without the last transistor and resistor 270k?

thank you

Barracuda problem

Hi
I have build Barracuda from silverdog and after i play with it a few seconds, the detector starts to make an intermitent beep beep beep every two or three seconds.
I rechecked components placement and values and this are correct too
Battery is fully charged and coil is the correct one. Any ideas of what could be wrong?

In advance many thanks

Nelson

Hello Volcano, eliminated 270K resistor ic pinout different from LF357 NE5534, iliminado "offset" because I do not have the original ci.
Attention: The PCB has been modified to correct the use BF245C pinning.
hug.

Hello Wilson
The resistor connected to pin 7 of the 7660 is 2M2 ohms

Hello Alexismex , thanks for the reply.
