"2. why you do not wish use AVR or PIC chip for the division?
ivconic, how is this idea for you? it is known that classic
has good sens in All metall mode, but low sens in Disc. bad
thing... so we change these roles here - pinpointing channel
now will work on full power, but discriminates..."
KT315 Yes it is one step forward in electronics, but I am
absolute beginner in AVR or PIC stuff.I do not know nothing
about programming those mCpus....yet.I'been doing some
devices with a PIC but with software, somebody else writted.
About idea...I absolutelly agree with U. I also have Garrett
GTI 2500, CSCOPE 1220B, White's Eagle IIc and Pulsestar II...
But making and experimenting only with my handmade CL3.Why...
simply, it is good,simple,cheap(i used scrap material to build
it)and very easy to understand how it works.When comparing
CL3 with mentioned models it is almost good as others.Advantage
is of its simplicity in handling on the field and there are fields
where I can not risk to take with me expensive models like Garrett.
About mod.Well...interesting. But I focused on tone extending.
In most of the cases on the field I do not mind about DISC.
It is itchy...very itchy when I get a strong signal somewhere
deep in the field where I do not presume a lot of scrap to find,
so I dig almost ever, and use ALL Metal mode mostly.
Very important point is good GROUND BALANCE, reducing false
signals.And a rich poliharmonic sound. CSCOPE 1220b is a good
example of aparatus with a good sound.But the inner construction
of the aparatus is quite different so I can not use that metod
of generating sound and apply as a change on CL3.Bad luck!
According to Your latest post, it seems that You have and know already
everything about CL3, so I can not offer U something new....
simply U know more than me.
About cd4060...with its divided outputs U can try to find the
nearest suitable quartz U need. If its does not mach 100%, well
no body's perfect !Ha.. But still U have a wide variety of
possibilities, U may try other coils...U may adjust freq. of
aparatus to work fine with some good comercial coil from
another company. I managed to marry CL3 with CSCOPE DD coil and
it's working very good. Now I am adjusting for using with
Garrett Scorcher coil I have.U may add a trimm.capacitor on
one side of quartz a try to pull freq. a bit.
