I am experimenting and practicing a bug sweep in a certain room. I have both a $30-40 RF detector (one of those with magnet detector and IR light / tint), and a RF Explorer 6G Combo (SPA-6G) with wideband antennas. I am sort of new to both.
The RF Explorer , between 1800-2700MHz, detects strong signals at 2.4GHz (makes sense) and 2110MHz as well as 1986MHz. ChatGPT says they are cellular signals. They are stronger than the WiFi signals in my apartment.
I have turned off the breaker to this room and used the RF scanner to scan it. There are a few spots that transmit very strongly (as a cellphone would) in a few very specific spots, but I haven't found any equipment.
I do know there are security cameras mounted outdoors right on the other side of my wall, but I'm confident I'm using the detector such that it doesn't pick that up.
Also, it detects strong RF transmission near one outlet, and one outlet only. That outlet and junction box is in open air and accessible by anybody from the other side if they have a key to the basement. So essentially, you could push the outlet cover (if it was unscrewed, and it used to be) and peak inside my bedroom.
Once again I am not too familiar with the RF Explorer spectrum analyzer to figure out of this is meaningful in any way, but I'm learning.
I have also had several close people mention things to me that I only said at home, but I'm sure those were coincidences. So my point is, a few reasons that make me suspicious.
Does any of this mean anything to you?
Thank you much!
