[meteorite-list] What great hobby!! + microwaves to detectmeteorites?

[JKGwilliam]

He hasn't found any meteorites yet.  The reason I say "yet" is that I know 
Keith well enough that he will keep at it until he' successful.  He has 
found buried pipes and other objects of interest that show the potential of 
GPR.  The object doesn't have to be metallic to show up on the screen, but 
iron objects would certainly give off a better signal.  Keith's machine is 
very similar to the one used by the FBI and other investigative agencies to 
look for buried bodies.  It is amazing to see the soil disturbance patterns 
that are present after a hold has been dug and refilled.
My guess is that once Keith gets him health issues addressed so he can 
focus on his ideas, he'll be finding meteorites that other people only 
dream about finding.

Best,
John Gwilliam
