Someone who is really understands the earth's magnetic flux lines can actually use a compass as a magnetometer. It's been done before. Read the book, The Treasure Hunter by Robin Moore and Howard Jennings for a description of using a compass in Central America to locate some large chests.

I just uploaded it for your reading pleasure.

Hi Redflex,

What is the dimension of that ammo box? Is it a regular box used to contain rifle rounds or is it a bigger one?
