Hello everyone!
Just finished my TGSL circuit and have been playing with it for couple of weeks now. I'm trying to balance the coils by ear and would like to know how critical it is to have the GEB trimmer stay in middle position. Will it work on real ground if I dial it for example to 3/4 parts from other end? I'm balancing by Ivconic's instructions: adjust until rejects ferrite, accepts silver coin. I'm planning to use just one set of coils.
Things I have found so far:
- CRT televisions can be a humongous noise source
- Badly mixed epoxy touching metals can become conductive
- Rx tuning capacitor value very critical. Some will give 40cm detection for 1 euro coin but with serious microphonics. In my case lots of capacitor changing to find best depth/stability/discrimination combination.
- Calculator + magnets + superglue will make simple but reliable turn counter
Finally, Very big thanks to posters in this thread for your helpful insights.
