But your question is very interesting. The strange using of DD coil and Omega coil in pulse detectors give us "Hybrid" detectors in range 0f 2008 to 2024 years. Maybe the strange using of two-box coils in pulse detectors will give us the next variant of "hybrid" detectors. But maybe it's time for Carl to explains what to expect.

Dear Carl-NC,
I'm seeking your recommendations. If you are referring to the "pulsed signal", as far as I know, pulsed signal is better for detecting gold than sine wave signal. So, any recommendations are based on this. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
In the metal detector article it says "the transmitter puts out a pulsed signal".

Hi ZuMi77,
why do you not try it out yourself and determine the best frequency for gold? A suitable simple two-box detector for that would be the T/R locator. With that detector you can easy select different frequencies with just a jumper each. This gives you already the direction which frequency would work for detecting gold the best. After finding the right direction of frequencies, you can fine tune it. The circuit diagram of the T/R Locator can befound on Geotech Forum as well.​

I may misunderstand something; in the ETI 566 project it is said that "the transmitter puts out a pulsed signal at 20 KHz"; that's why I said that the metal detector generates a pulse signal. Thanks for your patience; I'm not an expert, but I can say I am a hard-working student.
If you don't mind, please check the highlighted text on pages 1 & 6. I have an enquiry; there is something I don't understand. I hope you can help explain it.
On page 1:
The transmitter puts out a pulsed signal at 20 KHz.
On page 6:
Hartley oscillator operating at around 100 KHz.
The transmitter puts out a pulsed signal at 20 KHz, but the Hartley oscillator (which is the main part of the transmitter) is operating at around 100 KHz.

If you have time, please take care of the enquiry.
