Yes of course , this one may also have a different audio response on the iron that there is no sound or to have two tons or to leave a trace like gpx I will post a video these days , and I listed the TDI because the sound is nice and quiet threshold he also has some advantages in some situations.. In the first test at 20 euro cents I am quite happy with the depth the money is buried at 35 cm and detects it very easily the field where I test is full of iron waste, all the iron is discarded without any problems..I won't have time at the moment, but maybe I'll put TDI audio on this detector over the winter.

Here's an example of how the pulse detector I mentioned works Puls hibrid ..

Synchronous Demodulator RC values
Hi George,
Looking at the synchronous demodulator RC values of 22K and 470nF, aren't you severely limiting the gain?
Correct me if I'm not understanding this correctly but with a smallish coil (say 8 inches diameter) we can expect the target to be under the coil for around 100mSec or so.
With a PI sampling pulse width of 60uSec and the time constant of 22K/470nF at around 10mSec, this would need approximately 167 samples (or 167mSec with 1mSec pulse rate) to fully transfer the preamp output voltage to the 470nF capacitor. Wouldn't it be better to do this in at least half the time the target is under the coil (or around 50mSec) by changing the resistor value to 6K8 or thereabouts?
I may have this totally wrong or there may be other factors at play that I'm not seeing, please set me straight if that is so.
Totally loving the Voodoo project but still trying to understand it fully, my book is getting quite dog-eared in the process.
Kind regards,
Olly

However, please feel free to experiment.

Hence values were chosen for the R and C values in the sample gates to reduce noise entering the filter stages. With 22k and 470nF, the low-pass cut-off frequency is 15.4Hz. I did experiment with different values, but found that these gave the best results.
However, please feel free to experiment.

It is also available from Amazon websites worldwide, and from booksellers.
