What is an Intermediate bug detector?
The Intermediate bug detector is perfect for those who need a basic detector that offers professional scanning power. It strikes a balance between ease of use and powerful functionality, making it ideal for users who want to take their bug detection to the next level without breaking the bank. With its enhanced performance and user-friendly interface, this tool is sure to become an essential part of any debugging toolkit.
What does the Intermediate bug detector offer?
The Intermediate bug detector provides all the standard functions you’d expect, yet its scanning technique rivals that of a more professional bug scanner. It has a broad signal scanning range, complemented by excellent device control.
Intermediate bug detector

- RF antenna
- Scanning range up to 12GHz
- GSM capability, 3G & 4G
- Magnetic probe antenna
- Signal attenuation
- Audible tone
- Ten-bar graph LED
- Solid alloy construction
Device build quality made to high standards
No expense has been spared in the physical design of the device. The antennas are rubberised, and the casing is robust, crafted from cast alloy and painted black. The signal attenuation control sits below the main body, alongside the volume control, giving users better command during operation.
The ten-segment LED bar graph is clearly visible when holding the device, allowing easy adjustments without losing sight of the display. The audible tone is automatic, with the pitch shifting according to signal strength during reception.
Radio signal bands & performance
The Intermediate bug detector automatically scans all radio transmissions, including RF and GSM (3G & 4G mobile frequencies). Its scanning range reaches up to 12GHz, and tests confirm it performs as promised.
Magnetic probe antenna
The Intermediate bug detector features two antennas for distinct detection tasks. The RF probe handles radio frequency (RF) detection, as mentioned earlier, while a separate antenna targets electromagnetic fields (EMF).
What is the purpose of detecting EMFs?
When searching for vehicle tracking equipment, isn’t it beneficial to have a device that detects magnetic fields? Some GPS trackers don’t transmit signals continuously when stationary, making them tricky to spot with a standard bug detector.
Magnetic field detection
The Intermediate bug detector uses a magnetic probe to locate magnetic fields. Since 95% of vehicle trackers use magnets to attach beneath a car’s body, this device offers dual methods to uncover hidden tracking equipment.
Multi-function bug detector
The detector alerts you to magnetic fields via the LED bar graph and audible tone. Its two-foot-long magnetic probe is detachable, so you can disconnect it when not searching for vehicle trackers, reverting the device to a radio signal (RF) scanner for portability and convenience.




Good detector I am very happy with it thanks.
