Yes we did get the online claims guide.  Still a work in progress, and members can/need to put up info as it just lists the basics.  Can be found in the community tab.
 
I know the feeling, not detecting per se, but mining in general.  Our Chapter President and I saved a couple of GPAA claims in our area, and I am in the process of filing a 40 acre claim on one of the same creeks with another member of the chapter.....Hoping to intercept the AU  before it gets down any further.
