�Infinium�stands for infinite hunting abilities, "LS" for land and sea applications. From deserted battlefields to sunken battleships, Garrett�s new Infinium LS was conceived to be the truly �go-anywhere� detector, owing to its durable microprocessor-driven design.
The Infinium LS is specially designed for hunting in all ground conditions that create instability in other detectors; for easy handling of environments with heavy levels of mineralization; and for detecting on both land and sea.
To achieve this level of sophistication, Garrett engineers transformed the basic pulse induction commonly found in other detectors into a new, greatly enhanced circuitry technology called Advanced Pulse Induction (API).
The new level of ground-ignoring freedom created by API has been combined with Garrett�s innovative new Power DD searchcoil to give the Infinium LS nearly double the detection depth of conventional coils in mineralized soil. The result is an all-new standard for detector stability, rigidity and performance power.
Because of the Infinium LS's extreme depth capabilities and high sensitivity, it is ideal for relic hunting, cache hunting, gold prospecting and fresh or salt-water hunting. Three easy controls are all that are needed to successfully hunt for relics, jewelry, gold and sunken treasure.
The Garrett Infinium LS�s new Automatic Ground Track allows
the user to choose appropriate ground track setting for optimum performance. The
Discrimination Dial provides "all metal" hunting or varying degrees of
discrimination. In
addition, the Audio Threshold adjustment control is designed to suit individual
hunting styles and listening needs. Dual-tone Audio assists in
target identification at any depth.
The Infinium LS�s control housing can be mounted in a choice of four different ways. When the detector is turned on, battery-life is audibly indicated. It takes only eight (8) AA batteries to provide power for a full 10-15 hours of use.
To enhance the performance and versatility of the new Infinium LS to an even greater degree, Garrett has developed a line of searchcoils to maximize hunting results in areas with lower levels of mineralization. For these ground and water conditions, optional mono coils are available in 10" x 14" elliptical and 8" round configurations.
For more information on the new Infinium LS, call Garrett Metal Detectors at 1-800-527-4011 or visit Garrett�s website at www.garrett.com.
Hypothermia, a word meaning the body temperature is abnormally low, is a cause for concern year round. With autumn rapidly approaching, outside temperatures can fluctuate from hot to cold in a matter of minutes. Be prepared by keeping an extra set of clothing handy while treasure hunting. The heat of one candle lit inside a vehicle, can keep a person from freezing to death if stranded along the roadway. Always keep in the vehicle a blanket, candle and matches in case of an emergency.

From page 50 of the Treasure Cache 1993 volume:
Kelly's reputation gained in impetus as the season progressed, and soon Kathryn was wearing silver fox and the Kelly's moved into an elegant house in Fort Worth, complete with natural elevations, a wood-burning fireplace, high ceilings and a stairstep archway. But Kathryn wanted more. In the summer of 1933, she decided that kidnapping would be a profitable commodity, leaving the bank robbing to others...
