20. A ground penetrating radar system, including:
-
an input for receiving a first radar signal representative of buried targets at a first orientation, and a second radar signal representative of buried targets at a second orientation which is spaced about 90°
from the first orientation; and
a processing system for converting the first radar signal into first audio signals having discrete frequencies representative of the depth of buried targets and amplitudes representative of the strength of the first radar signals, and second audio signals having discrete frequencies representative of the depth of buried targets and amplitudes representative of the strength of the second radar signals. - View Dependent Claims (21, 22, 23, 25, 26, 27, 28)

24. A method of radar imaging objects encased within a medium, comprising the steps of:
-
radiating a first signal into the medium from a first position;
receiving a first return signal;
processing the first return signal to produce a first audio signal having a signal characteristic representative of a distance of the object within the medium from the first position.
