Hear What You Have Been Exposed To
A new, inexpensive hand-held device available to the consumer which can detect the pulsing emissions from wireless communications technologies (mobile phones, masts, DECT digital cordless phones, w/LAN’s, Wi-Fi, etc.) which are considered by scientists to be the cause of health effects among a significant minority of the population. The Electrosmog Detector enables you to judge the relative levels of such pollution by listening to both the volume and quality of the sound. GSM, 3G, wLANS, DECT digital cordless phones etc all sound different and after a little practice are easy to identify. The Electrosmog Detector enables you to ‘hear’ the electrosmog that exists all around you. The level and quality of the sound emitted is directly related to the type and intensity of man-made microwave radiation. It is not an alarm, nor is it a warning device. It is an educational tool providing an awareness of your personal environment. Curved design fits comfortably in the hand and requires no technical knowledge to operate. The Electrosmog Detector is the first true consumer product in this category.
Detect the electrosmog ‘hotspots’ in your environment and protect your family anywhere that you spend time - at home, in offices, schools, libraries, hotels, restaurants and when travelling. Has a built-in speaker, 2.5 mm mono headset jack for private operation (headset not included) and 2 year warranty. Uses 9V battery (included). Patented. 2 yr mfr wty.

MicroAlert is an alarm that you wear like a pager that will alert you to the presence of radiofrequency and microwave radiation. The MicroAlert is important protection for all pacemaker users, those sensitive to RF radiation from TV or cell phone broadcasts, or anyone who lives or works in the presence of microwave or RF hazards. Can even be used to detect audio and video transmission from concealed bugs or the unauthorized use of cellular phones! MicroAlert will respond to as little as 0.1 µW/cm² in highest sensitivity mode. When MicroAlert is moved closer to the source of RF radiation, the chirps will become more frequent, and will become a solid tone when exposure is high. Responds to frequencies from 500 kHz to 3 GHz, although response is not flat over this range. What this means is that at any given setting, the threshold will vary with frequency. Note: This is not a high precision meter. Sensitivity information is only a guideline. The beeping alarm threshold can be adjusted from no threshold (constant beeping regardless of radiation exposure), to to a maximum of about 10 microWatts/cm². It is intended to be an alarm for cell phones, cell towers, microwave ovens, surveillance bugs, and most RF transmitters. Only 1-5/8" x 2-1/4", the 1 oz. MicroAlert uses one Lithium coin cell #2032 which should last about 3 years with normal use. Includes convenient belt clip. 1 year mfr. warrantee.

Consider one of these COMBINATION METERS: Trifield Meter Trifield Extended Range Meter Natural EM Meter
At this price, you can't beat the Zap Checker as a relative field strength meter. It has tremendous sensitivity and very broad band. Most RF meters use a microwave diode detector as a basis of their detection system. They work well at high signal levels, but have limitations at lower signal levels. The Zap Checker's innovative design uses several stages of RF amplification before detection, thereby making it more like a broad-band receiver than a field strength meter. The useable bandwidth extends from 3 MHz to more than 5 GHz, and can detect even weak transmissions from surprisingly long distances, or pinpoint leakage in cables, locate hidden transmitters, determine optimum placement of computer wireless equipment, monitor radiation levels at the baby's crib, detect hidden cameras, audio bugs, and more. Detects digital and analog signals. A manually adjustable sensitivity control allows you to adjust the gain. Zap Checker has fixed internal antennas. Detection is in logarithmic or linear modes. Use the logarithmic mode for stronger signals In linear mode, the Zap checker picks up the weakest signals for full display. The signal reading is either by analog meter or illumination of colored LED's. The Zap Checker also has a switch enabled silent vibrator mode for situations in which it is undesirable to view the displays directly. Zap Checker uses two AA batteries (not included) for more than 80 hours of use and weighs less than 5 oz.

UltraSensitive Wideband RF Meter (Cat. #A177) …. $169.95
Light beams, especially lasers, provide an excellent method for carrying audio intelligence and are not detectable by ordinary RF (radio frequency) detectors. For those who need either a very sensitive RF detector or an infrared (IR) detector this unique item allows you to search for sources of either RF or infrared transmissions. With its bandwidth of 1 MHz to 2500 MHz and its extra sensitive circuitry, it will pick up signals that other detectors may miss. It is designed to pick up subminiature radio and infrared transmitters wherever they are located - in your home, office or car. To change from RF to IR detection, simply use the convenient front panel switch. Using the SENSITIVITY control and meter readings, you can quickly zero in on hidden RF and IR transmitters. Also use it to check your telephone and its associated wiring for RF bugs and taps. Can even be used to test your IR remote devices (TV remotes, etc.). Spectral Peak at 940 nm. Weighing only 8 oz., it is furnished in a high-impact case that measures 5.3" x 3.3" x 1.5". The telescoping whip antenna can be extended 33".

Dual RF/IR Detector (Cat. #A177-IR) …….. $229.95
Want to know the frequency of RF sources such as cell towers, TV and radio stations? Here's a handy unit that's priced right. The Broadcast Frequency Counter is an excellent economical choice for 2 big reasons: it offers both a frequency counter and bargraph type field strength meter. 10 digit display gives plenty of information about the predominant incoming frequency and the very low (<0.8 mV at 100 MHz) nominal input sensitivity provides stable readings even with smaller signals. Covers the entire frequency range of 1 MHz to 3 GHz. 0.1 Hz resolution on the 300 MHz range, and 10 Hz on the 3 GHz range. As a bonus, a 16 segment LED RF relative signal strength indicator is included so you can know both the frequency and the relative strength of the signal detected. Completely self-contained and portable. Telescoping antenna included, but this 50 ohm input unit can also be attached to other antennas or line with BNC connector (maximum input is 15 dBm). Powered by 9 VDC wall plug adapter (included) or 6-hour built-in NiCd battery. One year mfr. warranty. Made in USA.
Note: The sensitivity for broadcast signals is low. In other words, the broadcast signal must be quite strong to register on the bargraph.
Broadcast Frequency Counter (Cat. #A119-3G) …..……. $139.95
Measuring radio frequency and microwave radiation has never been easier! This unit covers the amazing range of DC - 12 GHz and will give you digital readout of the relative field strength of broadcast signals such as cellular phone, microwave oven leakage, TV station, CB radios using the (1MHz - 1GHz) telescoping antenna provided. Can also be used to measure 60 Hz electric field signal from powerlines and wiring. Even use it as an RF safety monitor! Adjusting the length of the antenna will affect the signal gain. Other antennas (not included) can be obtained for extended frequency ranges. Can also be used to make relative power measurements (and determine power loss) of single frequency coaxial sources such as cable TV, and with simple adapters, this meter may also be connected directly to any receiving antenna to measure signal strength while the antenna is tuned, modified or repositioned. Includes and ACV output (3.5 mm mono) which allows user to log spectrum/intensity data to a remote device. For the ultimate in portability, connect to the Portable Oscilloscope (read more).
