Just finished my detector a Bandido II µMAX
Thoughts now turn to the housing. Can't find one I like so will be fabricating one out of fiberglass along the lines of the original. Seems sensible as making a rain cover is then easy.
My Bandido seems very susceptible to interference
Would I be better lining the case with foil or would conductive graphite paint work just as well (400-500 ohms per square)
Is it a good idea to have some kind of ventilation holes so any condensation can escape or keep it as water tight as possible
Potentiometers and switches. Should they all be tied to a common ground. (the multi turn ground balance I can't do as its a plastic case).
