Go Up Go Down

I have noticed certain individuals offering "rewards"for "so called"contests which in my opinion is ridiculous. Anybody can make up a protocol that is destined to fail and this CERTAINLY does not mean victory to the individual offering a reward when others refuse his test. Many treasure hunters don't care about these "fixed"tests and are only interested in "actual recoveries". It is well known that there have been hundreds of recoveries using LRLs as well as other exotic devices & locators. Anybody that would even dare argue this fact is calling all of these people making recoveries LIARS.
In my opinion these DB protocols mean NOTHING. What I am looking for is real treasure found using any methods including LRLs-Dowsing-Remote sensing or whatever it takes. People need to get off this " testing"that has been beat into the ground and listen carefully to the folks that are FINDING and forget about all these useless arguments. Get out into the field with your tool of choice and make it happen. There is enough negative in this world and we need to think positive and listen carefully to all the people that are into FINDING. These are my thoughts, hope you don't mind- Ol Mann

If they can't find a target under controlled conditions - what makes you think they can find them under other circumstances. After all - the laws of physics are universal.

Yes, most people who realize they cannot pass such a simple test, blame the test.

Maybe you can offer a protocol that is destined to work for YOU. Or, maybe you'll refuse my offer.

The actual recovery for my challenge is $25,000 cash, plus 10 ounces of gold. But, hey, if you don't care...

Few people will ever going to take up the offer - and no one is  ever going to collect.

Well Steve........I figured someone "might"come up with that. The reason is what we call a controlled environment and the laws of physics just don't quite cut what is happening in mother nature. It is my belief that some things simply cannot be tested. We can tear things apart, analyze them, and still there are many things we simply don't understand and simply don't test well. Yet people are finding and making recoveries on a daily basis and so called "science"fails us. Recoveries is what I am interested in. For those that want to test - test -test- I just can't see them EVER finding anything. Also remember that science is changing on a daily basis. Years ago nobody would have ever thought we would be communicating on a basis that we are today. I guess this could be debated forever. For me and many others we would rather be hunting. Good Luck to all LRLers!!!!- Ol mann

     I agree with the oldman and art3811. Many treasures have been found via use of long range detecting.  The finders are not interested in proving their successes to anyone.  If it weren't for the basic socialness of others they would keep quiet about their treasure hunting techniques entirely.  Why encourage others to compete with you for the goodies?  When something is gone it is gone.
    I also agree with you, Steve, nobody will ever collect Carl's money. Never!

That's fine. But manufacturers of LRLs should be willing to prove their devices.

If LRLs worked, it would be quite easy!
