Treating each plot as a different site, otherwise it's all to easy to spend 10 minutes on one field, find nothing and move on to another, give yourself a day or so on each plot.
Just to note. if you are going to detect it properly ie grid it then 4000 acres will take you about 37 years at 40 hours a week. happy hunting. Title: Re: country estate Post by: nfl on July 19, 2010, 07:05:24 PM thats a long time i better get a bigger coil ;D ;D
