I would like to build a metal detector for underwater use. I'm not talking about a toy here but the real thing. The ones I have been looking at in the stores are in the $300 to $850 range and I don't believe that to be reasonable. Making a water tight box for the thing is no real big deal but I don't know just how the more elaborate ones work. Do they have sending and receiving coils? Phase detection? If anyone out there has one with schematics, or an article about them, I would be most appreciative of your help. Larry
