Inside the Metal Detector, 3rd Edition

[detectormods]

Do you cover the operational aspect of Minelab 7000 with its polarity flip transmitter and cover the pro’s and con’s ?

This is Carl’s face after reading the above

I do cover the 7000 TX method and CCPI in general, with some coverage of the benefits.

Good news... I've just ordered a proof copy of ITMD3 for final review. I still need to add a few images and George is still reviewing the last chapters, so there is a little editing going on. But all the data has been taken, all the words written, all the plots plotted, and all the schematics drawn. I should have the proof in a week, and it will take another 1-2 weeks to review it and make all final changes, then it will be available for purchase. Price is $50 but I will discount it to $40 through the end of the year.

Is it released this year?

OK. Waiting for sales to start...

Got the proof today. I'm hoping it's just because it's a proof, but the print quality is not as good as the earlier editions. The paper seems thinner and the photos are a little more washed out. In any case, there are a lot of images that need contrast adjustment and drawings that need thicker lines. Got my work cut out.

I found the same with the Arduino Nano VLF Metal Detector Project. At first I thought the print quality was due to it being a proof copy, but the non-proof copies were about the same. The overall thickness of the two books were also the same, so the paper thickness must be identical. When compared to ITMD2, the text and figures are definitely less sharp.

[Carl-NC]

I just ordered a fresh copy of ITMD2 to compare with my original, to see if quality has degraded.

Hey Carl I would like to order a copy when its available thanks

The third edition looks quite beefy.

It should be a much larger book with fewer pages IMHO. The book should be capable of remaining open on its own while on top the workbench.

Maybe not as large as 21x27cm but you can see my point. I understand the process is too far gone to turn, so we'll take it anyhow it comes.



You have done incredible work, Carl. Thank you for your efforts and good luck.
