8k will work if you use null rather than peak mode. The vertical orientation of the solenoid is the easiest explaination i can give you.

33 and 65 bleed too easy and don't travel well on small conductors. They also tend to cancel through xtalk.

I should have mentioned that you could be locating the path inductively if you ground the far end. That is what the 33 and 65k are good for.

As a rule lower goes farther, higher goes deeper.

When using a 521 or pro800 the lower the power output the farther the signal goes.
