Just hit a 2" gas line the other day scared the shit out of when that distinct sound of psss and dirt blowing out of the hole

Great video but higher frequency is actually a wider spread but less distance, good for jumping breaks in wires or tricky locates but can also jump to other utilities, lower frequency is tight and long good for sending your signal far.

Found a power-line in my hole, 4 ft off from its marking yesterday on a job. Scary!

I've heard the best way to find the utilities is finding them with the gas line digging with an Auger. It let's the whole town know you found them LOL

[Sums]

What's your estimate on how far from the transmitter it will accurately locate?

[coltwest]

I like ur rex but the lower the frequency the longer the signal and the gas line at the end that ran both ways was a main not the service

[tazmax]

What if there's no tracer wire ? Where do the alligator clips go then ?

[chargermopar]

If this wasn't so damn expensive I would not need to drag out my homemade version which weighs a ton and needs a generator to run it.
