Frequently Asked Questions
- Here are a few of your frequently asked questions answered:
"Why are your bugging devices not in a box?"
Here are a few of the reasons:
-
It saves you money
-
a box does not enhance performance
-
a box makes the bug bigger and harder to hide
-
It means you can afford to "loose" a £15 bug in the
field. Would you want to loose a beautifully boxed bug that does the same
job but costs £150?
"Why are your prices so low; are they inferior
quality?"
Well, you would expect that spending £150 on a bug would
give you a high quality product. Quite often you are just being taken for a
ride and inside the packaging is a circuit not much different to ours. We
just dispense with all the fancy packaging and sell you a very reasonable
quality product at a very reasonable price.
Transmitting Frequency -
All transmitters operate in the 88 - 108 MHz waveband so all you need is a
standard FM radio to receive the transmissions. The actual transmitting
frequency is easily altered by the user using a small screwdriver.
Our 'MMTX' Micro-Miniature 9V FM Room Transmitter has been designed to operate at the 'less busy' top end of the commercial
FM waveband and also up into the more private Airband.
Transmitting Distances -
Transmitting distances quoted are those you can realistically expect to
obtain. We do not quote theoretical distances like many of our competitors
do. Theoretical distances assume a clear line of sight (normally
buildings/hills are present), ideal weather conditions (quite rare in the
UK!) and the use of top quality receivers costing many hundreds of pounds
(most of us would us a standard FM radio to receive the transmissions). So
beware those who claim impressive ranges for their products. You will more
than likely be disappointed. Of course, if you can operate under ideal
conditions you are likely to receive greater ranges than those quoted by us.
Please note that transmitting distances quoted for any
transmitter cannot be guaranteed. The results you obtain depend very much on
the sensitivity of the receiving FM radio, what buildings and other
obstructions are between the transmitter and receiver, atmospheric
conditions and other radio transmissions.
General Information -
All room transmitter kits are supplied with a high sensitivity electret
microphone and battery holder/connectors where required. All kits use
