Can this be used to detect microwave electromagnetic waves?

Yes it can, but I suspect the small Gauss Meter (Ghost Detector) cannot register the actual strength of the E/M waves.The ghost detector is sensitive to very light magnetic anomolies and is no substitute for industrial meters.If you only want to know if you microwave is leaking I don't think it will work because the extreme power within themicrowave would cancel it out. Good Luck anyway

Not unless the microwave is not shielded(?). . .my unit has never gone off.Prof Bill

yes! It willl also detect fans, stereo speakers,refrigerators, other normal household items. But it's biggest advantage is to identify much smaller and less powerful electo-madnetic anomalies such as insects from another sector the light sprectrum - for instance, creatures from the infra-red and ultra-violet sectors and the less powerful energy left behind from ghosts.\Good luck with your meter and have a lot of fun identifying objects other than by the naked eye.

Yes. This meter is very sensitive. I will detect the signal from an individual cell phone or a nearby tower. It is particular useful when setting up wifi to make sure you are using the lowest power setting, and locate the wifi transmitter away from people.

No. The meter is set for microwave-oven frequency over a certain range. I think it is too microwave oven-specific for accurate cell phone radiation readings.

No. This is only to find electromagnetic radiation from electricity running through wire. Like overhead power lines. You need a microwave radiation detector for wifi and cell phones. Like this one: Hf35c Rf Analyze (800mhz - 2.5 Ghz) - Perfect for Smart Meters Detection

It will detect a wifi signal at close range like within 3 - 6 ft. However, it will not tell you the band it's on so it won't help you determine wife interference. Similarly, if you're looking to sniff out RF signals it will find those but again it won't indicate a band to switch from. However, if you're just trying to determine if there's a strong RF signal in the location of your wireless antenna it'll give you an indication of that.

I use it for that in my sailboat. As long as it picks up a clear signal I don't know why you can't.

I have detected any cell reaction(s). I believe if the EMFSensor picked up any signal in would display a rhythmic reading, i.e., like a ringer, etc. So my answer is NO.ProfBill

I'm sorry but I don't use it to measure noise from a woofer. I measure for level readings of equipment for safety purposes and the hazards of noise.

No, I think. It's max range is 10. GaussMaster is used to measure the magnetic field produced by electrical power lines or other home appliances. I used it to measure the frequency near TV, microwave, and the high power line goes through the backyard. Really useful in indoor and outdoor. It measures in two modes; 0.1 to 1 for small frequencies (power lines) and 1 to 10 for higher frequencies. Microwaves and TVs produce in the range of 50s, you would notice the needle hitting the right.

By now you have probably discovered that the instruction sheet is useless. You can practice detecting RF signals by using your cell phone or microwave oven. This item does detect RF signals is useless for the laser detection. Good luck

Yes. It will detect the ka band and/or k band that is associated with the device. Will not identify to you to what actually threat is as the possibilities are endless. The k and ka bands are very widley used. Ive had this detector for about a year and I love it.

The Trifield does a great job at measure magnetic and electric fields from wired devices. However, it has a lousy RF (wireless microwave) measurement. Try the Acoustimeter or the Acousticom 2 which measure microwave frequencies in the 200MHz to 8 GHz range. It tells you the amount of radiation from cell phones, iPads, wifi, bluetooth, game consoles as well as Smart Meters.

I don't think so. Those frequencies and mode are not of interest to me so I really don't know. If there is a test I can run to establish the capability, please tell me and I'll run it for you.

This is not actually possible. This unit is only a detector. It detects a small shift in a magnetic field. Your car is a big enough piece of metal to make a small shift in the magnetic field. This unit then sends a signal back to the receiver. However the signal is nothing near the same frequency or complexity of car security systems. I am sure something else "deprogrammed" your cars security

Actually, it would show you HOT SPOTS that you should avoid. It will also measure Micro waves that cell phones use, from the immediate bell towers. Too much of either problem will result in hearing loss, later on cataracts, and much later on brain cancer. Not limited to just these 3 tho.

It depends on the purpose of your measurement. Because of the squelch function you really can't measure the field intensity. That having been said, it does indeed react to, and seems fairly sensitive to, signals from microwave/cell phones/WiFi and also EM emissions from motors. So, if you just want to know if strong fields are present that you should avoid this is a great deal for the price. If you want more accurate measurements then you should look for a higher priced meter.

Most probably. You will need to get a 1/4" male to 3.5mm female connector, such as Monoprice 105493 6.35-mm Mono Plug to 3.5mm Metal Jack AdapterExcellent metal detector at a great price.
