If you are a collector of coins or other rare items, you know that you can find some of these items in outdoors locations such as a park or the beach. To help you locate items underground, a metal detector can be extremely useful. The Pioneer 101 Bounty Hunter Metal Detector is one model you can use to help you locate buried items during your treasure hunt. This model fits on your arm and has a control panel you will use to operate the device.
Turn the 'Sensitivity' switch to the right until you hear a click and the 'Power' light turns on to indicate you have powered up the metal detector. Turn the knob over until it lines up with the '3' position, which is the optimal sensitivity. If you hear a lot of static or random beeping from the unit, turn the sensitivity down to reduce interference.
I picked up the above-depicted Pioneer SR-101 all-tube Stereo Reverb unit for a few dollars at the final flea of ’12. It worked after some minor repairs and I am happy to report that it’s actually a pretty fine lil box. I made a few modifications and added some hardware to adapt it to studio use.

Move the 'Mode' toggle switch to the position that corresponds to the type of searching you want to do. Moving it to the middle position will turn the detector to 'All Metal' mode in which all types of metal will be detected.
Move the switch to the left to turn on 'Full Discriminate' mode that will prevent trash items from being detected. Move it to the right to use the 'Tone Discriminate' mode that will cause two different tones to be heard depending on if the object is trash or more valuable.
Insert your arm through the arm sling and grasp the handle of the detector firmly. Walk in a straight line with the coil about 1 to 2 inches above the ground. As you walk, slowly sweep the coil back and forth, keeping it level with the ground as you go.
Stop when you hear a beep from the unit. Depending on your settings, beeps indicate that objects are located underground at that location. Move the coil around until you hear steady beeping to zero in on the location of the item.

While holding picture to the
sweeping, maintain the search coil level with the ground.
If the detector chatters, reduce the sensitivity by turning the left knob (Sensitivity) counterclockwise.
When searching a possible target, move the search coil repeatedly over the target. Be certain that the signal repeats during each pass over the target. If the tone does not repeat consistently, you are probably detecting trash items or oxidation. Only dig up targets with repeatable tones.
IMPORTANT:
•Do not test the detector on the floor of a home or building.
•Most floors contain metal which will interfere with the detector’s operation.
•Unless air testing or demonstrating, use outside only.

INTRODUCTION
The Pioneer 101 is a user-friendly instrument, requiring only a minimum of operator skill, yet delivering effective performance over a wide range of conditions and applications.
Streamlined in appearance, with only two operating knobs and a mode selection switch, the Pioneer 101 has eliminated the two most difficult aspects of metal detector operation, Tuning and Ground Balancing. Both of these functions are automatic with the Pioneer 101.
The Pioneer 101 will detect in extreme ground conditions, ranging from salt (for beach hunting) to black sand (for gold prospecting), with no operator adjustments to the circuitry and with no loss of sensitivity.
From salt water beach conditions to black sand deposits common at gold prospecting locations, the Pioneer 101 sees
the earth’s naturally occurring
minerals to find buried metals.

OPERATION
The Pioneer 101 is a “motion” detector. This means that the search coil must be moving to detect the presence of metal. When practicing with a stationary metal detector, keep the target moving over the coil. Objects held still under the search coil will not be detected.
THREE MODES OF OPERATION
The Pioneer 101 allows for three modes of operation:
ALL METAL, TONE AND FULL DISCRIMINATE
After turning the unit on, and adjusting your Sensitivity to the desired setting, you're now ready to decide on your mode of operation.
Pioneer 101 Service Manual
ALL METAL: (Toggle Switch in the Middle)In this mode, all different types of metal will be detected such as: iron, steel, aluminum, brass, silver, copper and gold. Applications: Relic Hunting, Gold Prospecting, Cache Hunting and general applications such as property marker locating. This mode provides maximum depth detection capability.
FULL DISCRIMINATE: (Toggle Switch to the Left)When using the Full Discriminator, most trash items will be automatically rejected. Adjust the DISCRIMINATE control higher to increase the range of discrimination.
TONE DISCRIMINATE: (Toggle Switch to the Right)When using the Tone Discriminator, a unique dual tone “beep” and automatic iron rejection makes finding treasure fun and easy. It's also possible to achieve a broken tone for certain pull-tabs by adjusting your Discriminate control to the approximate center position (12:00). With the two-tone discrimination, along with a broken tone for pull-tabs, you will be able to identify types of buried metals according to the audio tones emitted. Applications: Coinshooting, Jewelry Hunting and detecting in highly trashed areas.
OPERATION
TONE MODE AUDIO RESPONSES
NO | LOW | BROKEN | HIGH |
RESPONSE | TONE | TONE | TONE |
Iron & Steel | Gold & Nickel | Old & New Pull Tabs Copper, Silver & Brass |
TONE DISCRIMINATION
(continued)
(Toggle switch to the Right) Classifies detected metal objects by emitting a low or high tone.
Adjust the DISCRIMINATE control higher to increase the range of the low tone. It is possible to set the DISCRIMINATE level so
that nickels have a low tone, larger coins have a high tone, and pull-tabs have a low tone orin-between “broken” tone. The
'broken' tone makes pull-tabs and trash easily recognizable. Sensitivity will be reduced slightly when using the Pioneer 101 in the Tone
Discrimination mode. If you want optimal depth capability, operate in the All Metal mode by turning the Discriminate control
completely counterclockwise; then turn the
Sensitivity control clockwise to its highest
clockwise position without chatter. If your
Pioneer 101 chatters or beeps erratically, reduce the Sensitivity by turning the left knob counterclockwise.
OPERATION
Pioneer Vsx 101 Manual
AUTO GROUIND CONTROL:
The Pioneer 101 automatic Ground Track feature allows operation in virtually all soil conditions, regardless of mineral content.
Use it effectively on the beach or for gold prospecting. In the ALL METAL Mode (Toggle switch in the middle), the Pioneer 101 will detect gold nuggets through black sand and will find deeply buried relics in all types of soil.
OPERATING TIPS:
Turn the detector on using the left knob. NOTE: The detector will remain silent when turned on. It will emit sound when metal passes beneath the search coil.
As the left knob is clicked on, it will be at the lowest sensitivity setting. Turning the control knob toward 'HIGH' increases sensitivity to small or deeply buried objects. If the unit “chatters”, reduce the sensitivity slightly, until the chatter stops.
For maximum performance, operate with the sensitivity as high as possible. The sensitivity can generally be set higher when operating in Full Discriminate (DISC) or Tone Discriminate (TONE) modes.
INTHEFIELD
STANCE
Stand with your arm extended in front of your body. Don’t bend or stoop; stand in a comfortable position. Hold the unit so that the search coil is about 1/2-inch above the ground. Adjust the search coil so that it is parallel to the ground.
SWEEP
Standing in the search position, swing the search coil gently from side to side, slightly overlapping each sweep as you move forward. Keep your search coil approximately 1/2-inch above
the ground as you search. Raising it during the sweep , or at the ends of your sweep, can cause false readings. Move slowly; hurrying will cause you
to miss targets.
Bounty Hunter Pioneer 101 Manual
Most desireable objects will respond with a repeatable tone. When discriminating, iron and foil objects generally do not respond. False signals can be caused by trashy ground, electrical interference, or by large irregular trash objects. These signals are easily recognized by their often broken or non-repeatable nature.

INTHEFIELD(cont.)
PINPOINTING
Accurate pinpointing takes practice and is best accomplished by “X-ing” the suspected target area.
●1 | Once a buried target is identified by a good tone response, |
continue sweeping the coil over the target in a narrowing | |
●2 | side to side pattern. |
Take visual note of the place on the ground where the | |
“beep” occurs as you move the coil slowly from side to | |
●3 | side. |
Stop the coil directly over this spot on the ground. | |
●4 | Now move the coil straight forward and straight back |
●5 | towards you a couple of times. |
Again make visual note of the spot on the ground at which | |
●6 | the “beep” occurs. |
If needed, “X” the target at different angles to “zero in” on |
the exact spot on the ground at which the “beep” occurs.
REMEMBER: The detector will beep just as the center of the search coil passes directly over the buried object.
If you have difficulty pinpointing very strong signals, try lifting the coil higher off the ground until a weaker, but more concise, signal is heard. For very weak signals, try moving the coil in short quick sweeps, closer to the ground.
