^ hey that sounds like a good idea. If u plant it vertical, it should just be a dot. Right?

Don't know for sure, but it would seem like burying it vertically would reduce its "metal-detector profile."

Anyone know fer a fact?

Also, burying it a couple of feet under something metallic but innocuous might work.  Like an old rusty pickaxe or shovel or a car driveshaft or sumpin'.

However, I think the radar signature from above will show "disturbed earth" for many years.

That's why I figure planting a tree over it might work.  Or a bunch of new trees all over the property. Or parking an old tractor or harvester over it.

Jes' spec'latin', jes' fer fun, like OP said.

Hahaha, back home we've got lots of those, but they're mighty hard to come by in Hawaii!  (Plus the Communists on the local HOA board would most likely poo bricks...which is a plus, in my book!)

I've used detectors before and some are really hit or miss.  I've had cast iron lines just put in a couple of feet below the surface and had 0 return despite being able to connect to a backflow preventor attached to the line.

On the other hand I've used a set of diving rods to accurately place a waterline something line 6' below the surface.

Go figure............
