of reception over distance, but it is possible. Slack loops of extra wire left in the ground
at installation are an example of a condition that would cause an increase of signal and
yet have no problem.
Also, soil condition makes a huge difference in the performance of cable locators.
Basically a circuit is being created from the transmitter, through the cable, out through
the ground and back to the ground stake. Any discontinuity in any of these links will
cause the locator to not work. Be sure your ground stake is secure and in the dirt and
that the transmitter is connected to the cable you want to track.
The soil serves as the return path for the circuit. When using direct connection methods,
you may have to condition dry or sandy soils to increase the conductivity of the soil by
adding a little water at the ground stake.
The best way to really learn the Pro800 is to use it. Set up a test site at your home or
office and get used to how it works. There is no substitute for experience in the art of
locating.
