Does this unit also detect gold? If not is there a unit with the scuba depth rating like the Nokta Makro PulseDive Pointer Waterproof Pinpointer?

It will detect jewelry, not gold nuggets. Unfortunately the best ones that I have seen for gold do not meet those depth requirements.

What frequency is this pinpointer on? How badly does it interfere with the simplex +? I dont want to hear interference while trying to pinpoint a target.

It's operating principle is Pulse Induction, Operating frequency of 3 kHz.

will simplex detector work when wireless pinpointer is on?

Yes, it will work while the pinpointer is on. There may be some interference, but you can mute the detector.

I've been using my PulseDive, on land, for about a month and really like it's size and functionality. I can't really say the holster, that comes with the unit, is the best, but with some vintage Bomber Jacket leather, I was able to fashion a easier access holster. The problem lies in the edge of the protective cover over the search probe. It catches on the holster and requires a 2-handed retrieval. A distraction when a target has been found and it's time to dig. Not unmanageable but less than desirable. One more small point, this PP doesn't go to a steady tone when in contact with the target. It beeps faster as you get closer but it never goes to full tone upon direct contact with target like other PP's. All considered, I think this is a great PP that will stand up to some rigorous field work.

Thank you for the feedback David.

- ★★★★★ Good pointer
Review by Germanrzor on January 9, 2021

I like the features and the waterproof rating of this PP but a few things make it a bit more hard to like at times.....
- the pointer never achieves the solid audible tone of contact with your target
- other than seeing the lighted indicator for reading your charge level, you could be stuck in the field with a dead unit potentially. Needs to have a 9 v battery backup
- to remove the tip is very hard to twist and release, you almost feel as if you are going to break it

Overall, not a bad system and certainly works well. I would love to see an external battery LED battery meter and ability if you fail to charge properly a 9 v backup or even two AA system.
