Unmatched sensitivity allows
you to find what you're looking for quickly, without the risk of passing over
your target.
Our locators last 100% to 250% longer than others, making your investment a
solid one.
Audio signal and 3-digit LCD readout
85% of the Surveyor market can’t be wrong.
Quality Is Our Hallmark
Schonstedt's underground magnetic locators have been setting the standards for
reliability and dependability for over 30 years. They are designed to withstand
the rigors of daily on-site usage and a wide range of environmental conditions.
In fact, the Model GA-72Cd is backed by a 5-year warranty.

The GA-72Cd Locator detects the magnetic field of iron and steel objects and
energized power lines. It provides audio detection signals that peak in frequency
when the locator's tip is held directly over the target. The GA-72Cd has the
option of nulling or peaking
No. 1 Around the
World
in Performance and Reliability.
Only two Controls
Designed for one-hand operations, the On/Off-Sensitivity and Volume controls
are located on the underside of the cover on both locators. This provides easy
access, protects the knobs and contributes to their overall ruggedness and dependability.
The GA-72Cd also has easy-to-read
digital and bar graph which displays of signal strength and polarity. Once you
have located a target using the audio signal, the digital readout and polarity
indicators will help you to visually pinpoint the target and, in some instances,
even determine its orientation.
Signal Strength and Polarity
Indications
The GA-72Cd's audio signal and the 3-digit LCD readout will peak, and the (+)
or (-) bar graph will expand to full scale when its tip is directly over a vertical
iron pipe. One end of a horizontal target will be (+) and the other will be
(-). This difference is very significant because it helps you to distinguish
between vertical and horizontal pipes.
With the GA-72Cd you can
select any one of four sensitivity settings. The GA-72Cd's LCD bar graph shows
the selected gain and the battery status. The GA-72Cd's headset jack can be
connected to your data logger using a standard stereo audio plug.
Choice of Two Audio Modes
The GA-72Cd is configured initially to provide an audio signal that is always
present (Audio Output switch set to "B"). If you do not want to hear
a signal until the locator is within the detection range of a target, you can
set the Audio Output Switch to "A".
