[QUOTE="Guest, post: 96310"] Regardless of what country the detector is "made" all electronics companies would be using parts sourced worldwide! They wouldn't compete otherwise. From Codan shareholder presentation 2008: Minelab has: 18 current Patents on Metal Detection Technology, out to 2028 4 more in development including significant technological steps to enhance detector performance The above would not include new patents on CTX3030 or SDC2300 including the new MPF technology. Also patents for GPX4800/5000 may not have been included in 2008 report? The only patents expiring any time soon would be old, obsolete machines. The current pulse technology, (MPS, DVT & SETA) would be wrapped up fairly tightly for a long time yet. [/QUOTE]
