Re: High Sensitivity Gradiometer Kit: For Sale: $99
Looking for "simple" answers to my archeology problems. I search for sunken riverboats in dry riverbeds. I'm old and not technically adept, but somewhat stubborn and willing to try. Is your kit something I should look at?
Thanks, Harold King -

Harold,
To "Keep It Simple" I would recommend that you consider using a metal detector with a large search coil to provide deeper penetration to detect large objects like the engine and boiler from these riverboats. Check the Metal Detector forum for additional information. Perhaps you are using one now for these searches.
The Gradiometer Sensors and circuit that make up the kit that I have were designed by Speake Company (http://www.speakesensors.com). The sensors and circuit board then have to be mounted securely on a ridged pole and separated by a fixed distance depending on the mass of the ferrous object that you are looking to locate. Note: I only have one kit for sale.

Dear Jim,
Most of the boats are 25-40 feet deep. I would like a photo of your kit, if possible. Thanks Harold.Comment

Yes, at 25 to 40 ft depth, the gradiometer would be the right way to go. Photo and info sent to your email address.Comment
