ing and how well you have learned your equip-
ment. Remember that an accurate map of the
original test plot must be made and it must be
kept up to date when changes and/or additions
are made.
With Experience...
After you have used the Investigator G-500 for
only a short time, you will be surprised at how
accomplished you have become with it.
Do not expect to achieve the greatest accura-
cy and success, however, until you have hunt-
ed with this detector for some time. Above all,
whenever you hunt with a metal detector,
remember to use your common sense. Stop
and try to think your way through perplexing
situations. Success comes from detector
expertise gained not only through study but
from patience, enthusiasm and the use of com-
mon sense. Remember, perfect practice
makes perfect.
of all this!
The purpose of the buried cartridges and cas-
ings is to familiarize you with their sound. If you
can't detect the deeper objects, don't worry.
After a while, you'll be able to detect them
quickly. When you are able to detect every-
thing in your test plot, rebury some items deep-
er. The shell casing buried next to the bottle
cap can give you experience in Super Sniping
with a smaller searchcoil and will help you
learn to distinguish individual objects. The jar
and gallon can will help you learn to recognize
"dull" sounds of large, deeply buried objects.
The pipe will help you learn to contour. Check
the targets with and without headphones. You'll
be amazed at the difference headphones
make.
The test plot is important. Don't neglect it.
From time to time expand it, rebury the targets
deeper and add new ones. The test plot is
important because your success and that of
fellow investigators in scanning over it will be a
measure of how well each of you is progress-
