Tracker Detecting Basics
Congratulations on your purchase of the Bounty Hunter Tracker metal
detector. With this book, you'll discover that your new Tracker metal
detector can be applied in a variety of ways. You'll gain many years of
enjoyment and eliminate frustration by learning to operate and apply your
unit properly. We'll start with a general description of each Tracker metal
detector.
The Tracker I-D has two controls: a Sensitivity On/Off switch and a
Discriminate control. It's amazing how many ways this unit can be
manipulated with only these two controls. The Tracker 2-D has these same
two controls along with one extra one for manually ground balancing. The
Tracker III or IV also has these two controls along with a toggle switch
which adjusts for three modes of operation: 'Tone Discrimination', 'All
Metals' and 'Full Discrimination'. From the surface, all of these Trackers
may seem easy to operate. Even though, mastering any one of these units
may take 100's of hours of in-the-field application. The more you learn, the
more profitable each detecting excursion becomes.
Our first concern is understanding how your particular Tracker reacts to
different metals and what you should be watching and listening for while
operating your unit.
The Tracker metal detector is one of the easiest detectors to learn to
operate yet, it is a difficult one to master. There are two controls on the
Tracker I-D and the Tracker III or IV that allow you to adjust its
Sensitivity and Discrimination level and a third control on the Tracker 2-D
that allows you to adjust the Ground Balance manually. With only these
few controls you will be able to manipulate your unit in many different
ways predetermined by specific applications.
Let's start off by learning to properly test your Tracker for all of its
functions with what is known as an "air test". You will benefit first by
learning to "air test" your unit indoors. To "air test" a unit requires that
you set up your detector, after it is assembled, with the coil facing towards
the ceiling off the edge of a wooden or nonmetallic table. To do this
requires that your coil has enough slack in the coil cable to be able to
rotate it towards the ceiling. It’s also preferable to have this same slack in
the field for easier tilting of the coil when hunting at different angles.
