Old Bounty hunter, need help please!

LECTRICHEART · Sep 14, 2011

I have an old bounty hunter. the one with the two toggle switch's on the back of the box. I can't remember what these are for. [Old Timers Desease I guess.] Can anyone direct me to a place I can find a users manual for this old machine? Or tell me what the function of these toggle switches are?

Is it the Big Bud? I had one 20 yrs ago One of the switches was to swithch from discriminate mode to all metal. The othe was a "surface balnker" that would not read targets shallower than 4 inches.

Thanks ronbo, you are right. That snapped my memory. I have had mine for around twenty years also. I used it a lot back then, but it has been collecting dust lately. Gonna knock the dust off, and give it a chanch to earn its keep.
