Bounty Hunter 202 Sensitivity Issue?
I've noticed with my Bounty Hunter Pioneer 202 that if I swing too low to the ground and touch/hit tall grass, a weed, a stick, anything...it usually sets the detector off. If the ground isn't cut fairly flat, I have to raise my detector off the ground more (which of course reduces my level of detecting depth in the ground) to prevent false beeping. If I'm in a field that hasn't been kept up on and is littered with tall grass...
forget it. Has anyone else experienced an issue like this with their 202 or any other detector?
