Title: Sandy Soil Post by: Dryland on February 04, 2014, 12:21:10 AM I was just thinking, I found the soil in the Ross rally quite sandy and as it was wet, does that mean that detectors that have a problem with wet sand on beaches also have a problem with wet
sandy soil ? Or am I missing something Title: Re: Sandy Soil Post by: Chef Geoff on February 04, 2014, 12:24:20 AM It's not wet sand it's the salt content ;)
