Compass CM-1 and a WWII mine Detector
« on: October 20, 2009, 10:16:20 am »
Go Up Go Down
I am looking for info (schematic would be ideal) on a Compass CM-1.  I know its not a high end unit but its old enough to get into my collection of electronic memories. I think the unit actually works but the original battery holders are missing. The connectors would accomodate a standard 9 volt but the case doesn't look quite right for three 9V bats. I suspect something like
12 "AA" in a 3x4 config. An owners manual would be great but short of that a " yeah this or that will work" will be also greatly appreciated. Just in case anyone is interested I once owned and operated a transformer shop and have better than a dozen years as a coil winder.  I only have 1 old winding machine now, but i kept quite a few rolls of good mag wire. Most sizes from 12 AWG to 40 AWG all with HTAI or HTPZ coating most with heavy coat.

I spent an hour or so and now have the compass up and running.  I did a few test in the yard and think I am ready for a real outing. I am taking the unit with me on a work trip up the coast  I should get a chance to try it in a "real world" situation.  Thanks for all the responses,

Cheers, Lyle Nighswonger

It's all about that moment when metal that hasn't seen the light of day for generations frees itself from the soil and presents itself to me.
