Locating
Locating in High-Interference Area with the SE Receiver
Introduction
Locating with the SE system is relatively easy and intuitive, but you must understand some locating
basics first. This section describes the locate points and locate line; the geometry of these elements with
respect to the transmitter; the display screens encountered during locating; and the proper method for
marking locate points once they are found. You are then given the standard locating procedure, including
tracking “on-the-fly,” and a method for tracking the transmitter when you cannot walk over it, called off-
track locating.
For a detailed explanation of how to track the transmitter when it is steep and deep, please read the
information provided in Appendix B: Projected Depth Versus Actual Depth and the Fore/Aft Offset.
