An automatic gain control (AGC) system for use in line locators that detect concealed conductors is presented. The AGC system includes determining an AGC signal from a reference sensor and processing signals from one or more observed sensors utilizing the AGC signal. The reference sensor is located farther from the concealed conductor than the observed sensors. The AGC system can be implemented in analog form or can include a digital AGC determination in a microprocessor.
