Welcome aboard from Australia and from a retired military guy. Sorry to hear about your disability, mate, but let me tell you that old age comes with another heap of them. Get ready!
Now that you have full member status, you can look at the downloads section to see what we have here. Also, the Geotech forums have a lot of good projects for you to look at. Just remember one key point. Until you actually build one of these guys and test it, don't assume it is a fully working and tested design. Lots of people have come along making tiny changes they think will "improve" a design and have wrecked it in the process. The longest threads on these forums are the technical ones where problems are discussed. Just bear that in mind.
A couple of things to mention now. If Eugene52 says it's a working design, it is. If the design you select is too technical, pick something simpler. In fact, start with the basics of a very small circuit and look here for some resources. As an example, there are a few programs out there that cost nothing and turn your sound card into a low frequency oscilloscope and spectrum analyzer. Use an isolating probe if you decide to try them. Use the search function at the top right hand corner of the page to find them. I have posted some of them here and could give you the topic to read but learning the forum is going to help you much more in the long run.
Best of luck, mate! And again, welcome.

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