Hi Paul,

Sorry I haven't replied back to you on the Inductive Probe been busy. Here is all that I know of what Andy Coppock's Modification. Here is an excerpt from an email he sent me awhile back:

Hi Ralph,

Sorry for the delay in response! I’ve been pretty swamped with work and investigations both.

The induction probe was electronically modified in two areas,,, input or antenna amplification and output amplification. This increases the sensitivity of the pickup as well as increases the volume of what you hear, which is why it was so loud. Both of these mods require changing the amplifier chips along with a few other things like removing the grounding lugs on the back to prevent a false positive sound if contacted. These mods are a bit above the household electrician skill level but if you want just send the amp to me and I’ll set it up for you. No biggie!

The induction amp in the unmodified state is also a great investigation tool. I use them to sweep a room to quickly find sources of EMF,, doorbell transformers in walls,, dirty unshielded wiring,, light ballasts,, All the things that can be misleading later during an investigation. Once identified you can properly place EMF meters, KII’s and such away from the sources and get clean results. I like it because you don’t have to look at a display to tell you are near a source,, you hear the flux or collapse of the current. (loud buzzing)

One word of caution however,, I’m not sure which session you were at the pool but whatever is interacting / communicating with the amp is in very close proximity to you if you are holding it. I’ve now added a switch so I can turn it on and get away a bit.. Anyway, at times it can be quite disturbing,, not a good feeling when the energy is strong.. This is what happened on that last session at the pool on Friday night.. I actually got pretty sick afterward and had Adam Blai intervene,,, so just be careful. Just as in our world,, not everyone you run into is nice!

Paul I don't know if this helps you at all but I'm not a person who has much knowledge of electronics and circuits or such, that's why I have to rely on people like you and Andy Coppock, Gary Galka and others to make these devices for me which I really appreciate. Thanks again Paul.

Awesome and thanks Ralph!!

I figured out how to boost the volume, but increasing the pick-up has been my issue. I'm working on a self contained unit that has a larger speaker and will have a telescoping antenae, that is unless Paul wants to create one for all of us (hint hint!!).

Take Care!

Michael if I had the time to build one I would. I recently tested my Inductive Amplifier and there is a definite need to amp the output and MAYBE add a telescopic probe, but for now Ill be amping mine and seeing how that works out for me

Hey guys,

Since Mr. Coppock has been less than forthcoming as to the exact nature of the modifications involved, a gentleman in New Zealand that frequents an ITC/RTSC yahoo group that I frequent took it upon himself to study the device and devise several hacks (depending on what model/generation probe that you have) to increase the gain in a similar fashion.

Thats an awesome post, thank you Andy
