Would a pinpointer with approx 12 kHz and approx 30-40 kHz or so be possible and help detectorist

Seems pinpointers freq wise ain’t keeping up imo to what vlf detectors are now capable of detecting.
Little video I did talking about this.

,Whites produced a pinpointer with 36khz,,,,optimum is a multi-frequency pinpointer,, which will have advanced signal processing ....

Interesting. My F Pulse finally died and I'm looking for something better or similar. I had little interference using my Equinox 800 compared to the Garrett carrot. Nothing a quick noise canceling couldn't fix.

Mr. Dankowski, I'm glad that such a multi-F pinpointer is being worked on.. it's about stability of work in mineralized terrain, but while maintaining sensitivity and range for very small targets, very small "chips" of coins, and at the same time not losing range for small, medium, and large coins...

And I’ll even give a good recommendation for a name for it.
The “Multi - Sharpshooter” Pointer
Might as well.
It would make me feel loved more. Hmm

BTW, this thread has had a lot of views - 18000 plus. So folks are either interested or curious. That’s good either way in my book.
What we have here ladies and gentlemen is a HOLE (VOID) in the industry. And we’ll see who fills the HOLE (VOID) First.

I'm on my 9th year trying to get this project: 'launched-and-completed'
..........but there's been too many "redirected" distracters....... culminating in postponement.
