Bug detector with bargraph and vibration indicator The Chase 1203 is a device, which will detect different types of radiotransmitting equipment and inform you by way of a bargraph indicator or silently by a vibrating indicator. Currently there are a lot of commercially available surveillance devices that allow you to pick up different information from your office, apartment or car. These bugging devices work within different frequency ranges and have different modulation and scheme types. They may transmit using standard modulation as well as non-standard.

According to the way of broadcasting, RF bugging devices can be divided as follows:
· FM and AM devices
· Very narrow or very wide AM/FM modulation
· Video transmitters
· Digital transmitters with continuous carrier
· Digital transmitters with storage, compressing and short-time transmission
· Spread-spectrum transmitters
· Hopping transmitters (frequently changing frequency)
According to the sort of transmitted information RF bugging devices can be divided into the following types
· room or body-carried transmitters
· telephone line transmitters, which start transmission when the receiver is picked up
· universal room/phone line transmitters, which work depending on the phone's receiver state (on/off-hook) and transmit both room acoustics and phone conversations
· vehicle transmitters (often with high power)
· tracking devices or "car beepers", which do not transmit continuously The Chase 1203 can detect all of these bugging devices when in active mode. You can test premises, cars or any items at all including office equipment. You will also be able to check people for body-carried transmitters. You may perform covert sweeping using the vibrating indicator. In such cases you can carry the Chase 1203 about your person and stand in close proximity. If vibration starts near a certain place, this indicates that the radio field is higher and there is a RF device. You will also detect if somebody uses a mobile phone. There are known cases, when people have left their mobile phone off-hook and all the conversation was transmitted to another phone or even recorded onto an answering machine. Preparation of the Chase 1203 for sweeping is very simple. First, you extend its antenna, switch the power on and tune the sensitivity to correct level. You then enter the room to be checked and begin to move the device in all directions and watch the indicator. You can also use the device in vibrator mode if secrecy is needed. The housing of the Chase 1203 is made of a durable duralumin material, which chases the device from being dropped, humidity and other unfavourable conditions. Nevertheless it is not recommended to store or use Chase 1203 in harmful conditions. The Chase 1203 is powered by 2 AAA batteries or accumulators. Alkaline batteries provide the device with 10 continuos working hours. After discharging they can be easily changed using the screw on the rear panel.
