Title: Bug detectors anyone
Post by: duke of earl on March 25, 2012, 08:00:25 pm
I was informed that my office may be bugged so I would like to build a bug detector. Anyone have any ideas on this?

I am guessing that the cicuit would have to sweep a range of Freqs
Sounds like it could be a complicated circuit

Just my .02, you are probably better off getting one already made

Saw some cheaper ones on amazon but they had 1 star ratings from the users
They were saying you had to be right on top of the thing before the cheap one would do anything
The more you spend the better they work without having to rub them right up against a surface like a wall or ceiling

Sounds like a good idea to get one if you think someone is listening...

Maybe I should bring my 50 watter in and face it at the ceiling, turn it up full throttle, and play my SG with Overdrive cranked! Think they will get the message? :m11 :guitar1 :m8 :m7 :blob8: :blob10: :l4: :l3:

Yeah! That would probably bring closure to the 'bug issue'. :wink:

If not then I would probably get escorted out of the building and I can finally go fishing :icon_biggrin:

Whats this world coming to.
You should plant some bugs in your bosses office.
Maybe you can come with some blackmail material.
Then you can go fishing anytime you want with pay.

You can. Just save the smiley (animated gif file) and attach to any email.
