Got one too. Mine is more like a divining rod than an instrument. I've gotta
try Doug's trick.

Has anyone here ever used a an Electronic Circuit Breaker finder? More
specifically a GB instruments CB locator. This is a gizmo where you plug a
small signal generator into a live plug and with a receiver probe you can
find the associated Circuit Breaker at the panel.

Here is the question. How is it possible to get 2 different Circuit
breakers reacting with the same audio and visual ( LED) intensity? Does
this mean I have spaghetti wiring? Or is this common in or around the same
wiring areas? Or an induction effect? Perhaps a related problem here is
that I have wireless house intercoms, they use the house wiring to send
signals around. I can call the first floor from the basement or the first
floor to the second but I can never get a signal from the basement to the
second floor?

I guess that we don't need fancy electronic circuits to get mysterious
effects!
