LDR1, a cadmium sulphide (CDS) photoresistive cell is used as the lower leg of a voltage divider between Vcc and ground. The timer terminals 2 and 6 are connected to the junction of the photocell and SENSITIVITY control Rl. The resistance of the photoresistive cell varies inversely as the light intensity; resistance is high when the illumination level is low; low in bright light. (The Radio Shack CDS cell 276-116 has a typically wide resistance range—about 3 megohms.....
This rf detector can locate low-power transmitters (bugs) that are hidden from sight. It can sense the presence of a 1-mW transmitter at 20 feet. which is sensitive enough to detect the tiniest bug. As you bring the rf detector closer to the bug, more and more segments of its LED bar-graph display light, which aids in direction finding. The front end has a two-stage wideband rf amplifier, and a forward-biased hot-carrier diode for a detector. ..
CI and LI resonate on the 1750 meter band, with coverage from 150 kHz to 500 kHz. LI can be slug-tuned for 160-to-190 kHz coverage alone or a 2.5 mH choke can be used for LI, if desired, using CI for tuning. A 1N270 germanium diode rectifies the RF signal and C2 is charged at the peak RF level. This dc level is amplified by an LM358. The gain is determined by R2 and R3, 1 100-kilohm linear potentiometer that varies the dc gain from 1 to 100, driving the 50 microampere.....
This circuit responds to RF signals from below the standard broadcast band to well over 500 MHz, and provides a visual and audible indication when a signal is received. The circuit is designed to receive low-powered signals as well as strong sources of energy by adjusting the bias on the pick-up diode, Dl, with R2. ..
A TL081 (IC1 op amp is used to increase sensitivity. RF signal is detected by CR1 and is then amplified by IC1...
Door open alarms are used chiefly in automotive, industrial, and appliance applications. This type of circuit can sense the opening of a refrigerator door. When the door opens, a triac could be activated to control the inside light. The figure shows a door position alarm. When the door is opened, an LED turns on and the piezo alarm sounds for approximately 5 seconds. This circuit uses a TL3019 Hall-effect device for the door sensor. This normally open switch is located in.....
The bug tracer is made up of a simple rf-injector circuit consisting of Ql and Q2, and a pocketsize, AM broadcast receiver. The two-transistor rf-injector circuit supplies a constant rf signal to one end of a cable. Then the AM receiver is used as a detector, allowing you to trace the wire to its source. Transistor Ql, along with piezoelectric ceramic resonator RESl, make up a simple rf oscillator that operates either at or near the AM-radio, 455-kHz, i-f frequency. ..

This bug can be attached to anything from a glider to a pot plant and you can track it with a radio. Why track a pot plant? The Beeper is the result of many requests for a mini tracking device and introduces a new world of tracking. The circuit is very compact and consumes very little power. It is small enough to be hidden in anything you suspect will be lost or stolen. By using a mercury switch or "grasshopper" the bug can be "primed" for the time when it is moved.....
Is a 100 to 200 metre (100 to 200yds) device having a very stable performance. It can be used as a hand held microphone or left on a shelf to pick up the sounds in a room. It has many interesting features. These will be fully described in the article. One of the most important features of this project is the use of standard components. This gives it universal appeal as the parts can be obtained from almost any electronics store. It has been designed, not only for.....
The Wireless Keylogger consists of two main building blocks: the transmitter, and the receiver. The actual keylogging takes place in the transmitter, which is in fact a PS/2 hardware keylogger, with a built-in 2.4 GHz wireless module. Captured keystroke data is transmitted through the radio-link in real-time, rather than getting stored. The receiver on the other hand, is a wireless acquisition unit with a USB interface. All keystroke data received from the transmitter is.....
Power supply: 12-14 V stab., 100 mA. RF power: 400 mW. Impedance: 50-75 ohm. Frequency range: 87,5-108 MHz. Modulation: wideband FM. Connect the 6 V / 0,1 A bulb to the output and use R1 to tune the right frequency. Maybe you might stretch coils of the L1. Then use C14 and C15 to adjust the highest power (the highest light of the bulb). Then you can connect antenna and audio signal. Adjust R2 until the audio sounds as loud as the other stations. With good antenna (dipole.....

This project requires a high degree of soldering. It uses surface-mount resistors, capacitors transistors and diodes. It can only be assembled on the PC board supplied in the kit as the Latching Circuit is already soldered to the board and the project will not work with substitute components. The Infinity Bug connects across the phone line and takes very little current as most of the circuit is not active when in the "waiting" state. This is called "leeching" and the.....

This fairly simple circuit makes it possible to place such a wall as a conduit to locate. It is a conduit for power, no water or gas-seeker. The only requirement is that there is tension on the line. The antenna in the table can consist of a simple piece of copper wire. The correct adjustment is done through R7, in order to prevent the buzzer and LEDs still light up even though there is no leadership in the area. ..
This Mini FM Bug Detector is basically a broad-band receiver. It picks up the complete band from below 80Mhz to 150MHz and almost anything that transmits in that band will be detected. If a bug with a sensitive microphone is transmitting nearby, the result will be a feedback whistle. The Bug Detector will not determine the output power of a bug as it is detecting the sensitivity of the microphone. However it will prove the carrier section is working (this is the.....
