Pinpointing - Pipehorn Series 800-H User Manual

PINPOINTING

As you move closer to the conductor the Receiver's sound be-
comes a higher (shrill) pitch. As you move away from the con-
ductor the pitch lowers and will eventually go away. Always
maintain a solid, non-beeping tone from the Receiver to en-
sure proper alignment with the conductor.
Be careful when on a hill or steep bank. Try to keep the Re-
ceiver level, not parallel to the hill. The Receiver will go towards
the strongest tone, and if it is kept parallel to the hill side that
tone will NOT be directly over the conductor as shown below.
The deeper the conductor is, the worse this problem becomes.
