My question is how well will one work over rock? I really have little or no soil here. Any experience with this situation? I do have a 100m deep well into the rock down to an aquifer. Perhaps that for one end and the other??? Any experience in this area out there? TU Scott > Scott, don't you want to give VLF a chance?
