Right about... here.
Found a thread on the Mythbusters forums talking about the H3Tec Treasure detector. Apaprently, it can detect atoms from up to 2 miles away through "Nano-Ionic Resonance" Enter in what you're looking for, and it will key in on those atoms.

Looking about the archives, I can't find mention of this anywhere. Anyone know about it? Is this related to that DKL detector that Tom Clancy fell for?
 
Sounds a lot like the "sniffex". Search "dowsing" and you'll probably find it or a sibling discussed here. I know I've read quite a few posts here over the years related to similar claims.
 
I personally saw and held an H3Tec unit at a recent Treasure Show. It is definitely just a dowsing rod, nothing else.

At one point, I saw two potential "customers" with units outside, looking for a hidden silver coin (the units were "programmed" for silver). I walked out to see how they were doing, they were having zero luck getting the H3Tec to work. Both of them scanned me, and completely failed to get any response from the 10-ounce silver bar I was carrying.

I also attended the H3Tec seminar, where I listened to their "technical" claims. It was 100% nonsense.

The H3Tec is part of Charles L. Christensen. Chuck got some of his technology from Stephen Jepson of Spring City, Utah. Stephen was the master, who really found things with his unit, but Charles did not know a lot about it, none the less Charles decided to commercialize it for his "gold" I worked with Stephen for a few years. He and I were of the best of friends and shared common knowledge for a long time. Unfortunately Stephen Jepson passed away a few months ago and left his partners without the vital knowledge to operate his LRL. The problems with the H3Tec is that it hits and misses, but mostly misses, because what they do not know, Stephen did, but did not pass on. Also when they do get theirs working, they cannot define whether they are reading on flower gold, a gold vein or a solid brick or coin of gold. Here in Utah there are endless small deposits of flower gold in them there hills and since they cannot tell the relative density when they do have it working correctly, it makes for a lot of digging. The depth of a target was also mastered by Stephen Jepson and Chuck cannot do it. I have one of Stephens units and it can be built for about $1,200.00, but the detection technology and knowledge takes a long time to teach and I am not in the business of commercializing it.

Guys, my wife looks at me disapprovingly when I speak of my curse-removal scam service. And I grew up in a nest of lawyers, so I know how to make it "for entertainment purposes only." Yeesh, if these guys can stay outta jail i should have no problem. ;)

However, every phony name I come up with, somebody else is running a scam providing a service under that name.

Cant accept that- technology is almost impossible to hide.

Everything built has a principle of physics, an application of said and is constructed of parts to perform that function.

For a device to operate- it has to follow that process. There are many devices we know are 100% theoretically" possible but the technology/materials/power to construct them hasnt been developed. ( part 3 above)

These dowsing rod "thingies" have a weak thread on 1 above but dont work on 2 and 3.
 
Scamola!

Anyone who knows anything of panning for gold knows that EVERY tributary, river, creek etc in the world has gold in it. Its simply so minute and sparse its not easy to find. Anyone claiming to have a detector that can detect it from 2 miles is a scam artist! If it were possible, the detector could detect an atom of gold no less than 10 feet from where you were standing, probably leap out of your hand and bury itself in the ground if it were that sensitive 2 miles away. This fellow is simply too lazy to pan for it and trying to make money from gold by bilking others. There are atoms of gold beneath your feet just about anywhere there is soil period! Atoms of gold are all around you. Its simply isnt economically feasible to retrieve it.

The Batteries Are Dead In My Dowsing Rod

H3 Tec won the Scum of the Minute Award from Skeptic's Dictionary

Scum of the Minute

First place goes to H3 Tec, promoter of nano-ionic resonance as the key to detecting the presence of stuff. The H3 Tec is the latest replacement for the Quadro Tracker and the DKL Lifeguard. You have to wonder why there are still undetected roadside bombs going off in Iraq. This fantastic device should be detecting them without fail. In any case, after this endless war, the devices can be used to find lost golf balls or dentures.

What do you get when you wrap a dowsing rod with a metal case? An easy way to find Gold? Oil? Drugs? Explosives? Landmines? No, you get H3 Tec's glorified metal stick inside a metal case. The inventor apparently was inspired by Star Trek into building his own "tricorder." The result is as much science fiction fantasy as the show.

It seems some people still have their old fashioned BS detectors on high.
 
H3Tec Update

I've just obtained an H3Tec device. There is no question, it is a dowsing rod scam. They have also just been awarded a patent on it, US7750634, which even shows a drawing of a dowsing rod (Fig 3), demonstrating that the USPTO will approve anything without question.
 
They be good for losing the winter blues,like the ones doctors recommend,especially if they discover gold in the living room.

If you know that this doesn't work, why not open an inter partes reexamination on the patent?
 
Is there a process for suggesting a reexamination of the technical qualifications of the patent examiner?

Heck no. Objections must be to the patent, not the examiner.
That'd go over like a ton of bricks.
