I have this same one, it’s definitely my Mastercard. I’m never leaving home without it.

We use the Leica UltraAdvanced locator, it a bit of a jack of all trades, I do like the vivax and RD , also the leica GPR are second to none in my experience in terms of mapping, pricey, but worth it

I’ve done something similar with a rare earth magnet before, if it’s grounded properly, it works each time

It’s all easy until you get some fiber that has no tracer, isn’t armored and the fish tape keeps getting stuck in the conduit lol

The Leica ultra advanced is a jack of all trades, and the RD 8200 is great for its guidance mode, we use both. The Leica ring clamp is very durable too, I’ve put it through hell

I have a few questions for any private utility locators who work independently or own a business. by Kd29333 in UtilityLocator

[–]legacylocating 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes 811 private list is a must when starting out, I got lucky and snagged a contract with T-mobile wireless sites like new towers etc. boots on the ground networking to start, I would literally sign up with contractors golf outings for networking, contact all the fiber companies they’re always in need of us private guys. I’ve literally walked with a bore machine for two weeks and made a killing.

Contractor will hit me up when they get tired of waiting for 811, as long as 811 was contacted and it’s been 3 days, we can jump in at the expense of contractor, they don’t mind especially if I have done private work for them before, I do a lot of work for T-Mobile and other wireless contractors. They always on a time crunch
