New
Discovery Digital Boat Towed Proton Magnetometer.
Powered By Four Microprocessors
The new
Discovery Digital Boat Towed Proton Magnetometer is the latest in proton metal
detector technology. It’s digital, packed with features,
and comes standard with upgrades that are considered ‘extra options’ on other,
comparably priced, boat-towed magnetometers.
The most impressive feature is that the Discovery Digital Proton
Magnetometer
can run, record data, and communicate with a built-in
on-board GPS
device to record the location of underwater targets as
you go – all
without an additional pricey and cumbersome computer
that would be
exposed to harsh elements at sea!
The Discovery
comes standard with a built-in depth reading
altimeter,
MagSurvey software to be used with your own computer
equipment –
the standard for magnetometers - logs up to 100 hours of
data onto the
control box, which can later be transferred to a
computer at
home, safely away from salt water and harsh weather. The
control box
features only two buttons to avoid confusion, and boasts
“Worldwide
tuning” – preventing you from having to purchase
expensive
tuning modules to accompany you around the world.
Powered by
four state-of-the-art microprocessors and manufactured
completely in
the U.S., the Discovery Digital Proton Magnetometer
operates to
depths of 240 ft. or, for an additional fee, 500 ft.
underwater.
It comes standard with a 150 ft. long tow, super
flexible
cable with the option of upgrading, for an additional fee,
to 300 or up
to 2000 ft. cable.
Proton
Magnetometers consistently detect bottom structures,
submerged
cultural resources, wrecks both old and new, and old
wharfs/docks
that are no longer visible to the naked eye or are
deeply buried
underwater. Perfect for environmental survey
companies,
universities, law enforcement and treasure/relic hunters
around the
world.
Using the
Digital Boat Towed Proton Magnetometer is simple and quick
– leaving you
free to spend your time excavating the treasure it
finds!
The new, 2008
model’s “Tow-fish” is designed from heavy-duty,
corrosion
proof PVC material and is ready to use in the most extreme
environments.
Upgraded features provide a noise free, digital uplink
to the
control box to communicate accurate gamma readings and depth
measurements.
Easy breakdown and compact storage allows the Tow-fish
and control
box to be easily transported around the world in a
medium sized
suitcase and includes an extra set of breakaway fins
for snag
resistance.
Other
magnetometers may not include important features such as: a
built-in
depth reading altimeter to indicate how deep the Tow-Fish
is, a
built-in GPS antenna receiver, variable alarm detection
settings, and
up to 100 hours of data logging capabilities with
included
software. See below for the Discovery Digital Proton Boat
Towed
Magnetometer’s features and specifications.
The Discovery
finds any item made of iron, no matter what size; both
large and
small. You can locate buried iron cannons, anchors, and
treasure
chests, as well as any type of iron vessel! Our magnetometers are used by
professional
treasure hunters worldwide including relic hunters,
marine
industrial companies, ocean salvage companies, Archeologists,
and local
city municipalities.
Treasure
hunters will love how easy the Proton Magnetometers are to
use. You can
quickly locate and pinpoint any buried iron treasure -
in either
fresh or salt water. Our magnetometer offers the most
depth in any
type of soil on all iron targets. Yet the operation of
the Discovery
is simple and requires minimal training in the field.
Many treasure
hunters use magnetometers to locate iron strongboxes
full of gold
or silver coins, to find iron cannons, cannon balls, or
guns from the
Civil War era, and to trace iron ships and wreck sites
that contain
targets.
