Is someone bugging you? No, we're not talking about that noisy neighbor or inconsiderate co-worker. Instead, this is a discussion of unauthorized wireless electronic surveillance of your private space, conducted using tiny devices placed there with hostile intent. In surveillance terms, these are known as "bugs," and whether or not we would like to think so, there is an increasing number of these nasty little things in use out there - and maybe in here as well. If you have even the vaguest suspicion that you are being spied on, maybe it's time to invest in a Bug Detector. The best types of anti-bugging units utilize the hand held detection approach which allows the user to "sweep" the entire premises for bugs. There are two types: a frequency detector, which can tell you which radio frequency the bug uses to operate but cannot actually locate the bug, and an all out Bug Detector. The latter can indicate the presence of a bug by simply walking through a room with it switched on. You can then use the strength meter on the unit to pinpoint the location of the bug. Both types of units are completely portable. They resemble walkie-talkies in appearance and run on batteries. You will want to do a more thorough search with you bug locator than a simple walk-through, however. Remember, today's bugs can be smaller than a penny. They are cordless, which is why they must transmit on a radio frequency to operate. It is this telltale frequency transmission that will lead the Bug Detector to the bug. US law mandates that audio devices not be employed in a clandestine matter except by law enforcement. This means that if you have nothing to fear from law enforcement, then the person who is bugging your home or office probably does. This is nothing to fool around with. Get a good Bug Detector. The famous Watergate incident was simply a botched bugging attempt, after all, and bugs can be used for extortion as well as surveillance. No matter what your job or other pursuits involve, if they are legal, then you have the right to privacy and peace of mind wherever you happen to be.

If you are a business owner or live in a large home, a digital surveillance system can be one of your most effective tools for deterring invasive criminals from entering the premises, or one of the best ways to make sure that they are caught and convicted if they do so. We are all sick of home invaders, and we all pay higher prices when businesses are victimized. The question is, given your situation, is one camera enough? If not, consider a 4 Channel Digital Video Recording Complete System from a reputable dealer. The cost is a lot less than many people think, considering the lives and property that the equipment helps to protect. A 4 Channel Digital Video Recording Complete System costs a little more than two thousand dollars for wireless, and even less for a wired system. The "Complete System" part of the term means that when it arrives, it already contains all the components needed to be up and running quickly. There is no compiling of equipment lists or shopping for this and that; it's all right there. Not only that, but the aggregate cost of the system is less than you would pay for all the individual components. What's more, when a 4 Channel Digital Video Recording Complete System is purchased as a configuration, you and your maintenance crew need not be electronic surveillance experts. All that is necessary is the ability to follow instructions. Wired cameras and other wired equipment costs less initially, but installation is a more extensive procedure than with wireless, so balance all these considerations when estimating the actual cost of the system. Both types of systems come with a built in DVR, also called an embedded DVR, which records events on its own hard drive and does not rely on a desktop computer. Of course, there are also 8 and even 16 channel systems available for really large applications, but for most of us, a 4 Channel Digital Video Recording Complete System will fill the bill without breaking the bank. A good system configuration includes a stand alone DVR, four bullet cameras, four video receivers and a 17 inch LCD monitor with split screen capability, so that security personnel can watch all four channels simultaneously.
