If you are involved with or working in the surveillance field,
or even if you are aware that others may be listening in to your
private conversations, spy bug detectors are important. This is
because they can help you determine whether a room is relatively
safe. There are a variety of spy bug detectors available, from
those designed to detect phone taps to those created to find
camera spy bugs. Part of good surveillance also owns the proper
counter surveillance tools. Spy bug detectors are a vital part
of your arsenal. Spy bug detectors that act as sweepers are very
useful. You can turn these on and walk the room with them. They
are likely to pick up on extra electronic output or to pick up
radio frequency (RF) emissions. RF scanners are also very
useful, as they scan for any RF energy in the room. Most covert
listening devices are actually RF devices, and it is possible to
wear these on one's person. Discretion can be used when you make
use of spy bug detectors as well. There is no need to be out
there with a big device, ostentatiously scanning the room. Some
bug detectors look like pens, and can be used without raising
too much suspicion in the person you are speaking with. And that
is important. When you realize that the other person is bugged,
and if you are discreet about checking for spy listening
devices, then you can mislead with carefully planted
information, or avoid talking about sensitive issues. Spy bug
detectors are also made that specifically search out hidden
cameras. If you are worried about peepers prying into your
private affairs, you need one of these. They can help you find
cameras in the room, and then you can deal with them
appropriately, protecting your privacy. Some spy bug detectors
are designed for phone taps. These types of detectors will not
usually detect a down the line tap, but spy bug detectors can be
useful for finding taps on your premises and for discovering
taps that are in the phone itself, including hook switch
bypasses. (c) 2005 Copyright www.spyassociates.com. This article
