Hybrid 04 is designed to have wider radio frequency range between 10 MHz up to 8000 MHz and operate with double antennas ( Both antennas can work simultaneously and independently )  compare with ASTRO i4 which has 3500 MHz.

Which means Hybrid 04 has an ability to detect the variation of spying and bugging devices which are operating by the different level of radio frequencies.

Furthermore, Hybrid 04 has also come up with the outstanding feature of Event Logging & Activity Reports .

The report can identify each transmission by Frequency type, the time of transmission, and the length of time it was transmitting as well as the power level of the transmission.

You can do this by connecting Hybrid 04 to a PC/Mac/Linux computer and generating PDF reports which can show you all frequency events occurring throughout the time the device was monitoring the location.

This device can also detects the unauthorized wireless signal transmission, you can read more information about threats from wireless networks.

Hybrid 04 is able to detect the real source of rogue transmission from the radio frequency, you can read our page for further information about the threats from the radio frequency and hidden spying devices.

Wireless bugs

Radio microphone

Wireless / WiFi camera 

Walkie-Talkie 

Transmitting cellphone 

Jammers

Notes : The device can detects only devices emitting signal at the moment. 

Jammers – Will be detected if it’s switched on.

As soon as the bugging device and rogue transmission send a signal to the spy, the Hybrid 04 Threats Detector spot it.

ANT 1 – Can find the unauthorized bugging devices and radio signals with the frequency between 10 MHz to 2400 MHz.

ANT 2 –  Can find the unauthorized bugging devices and radio signals with the frequency between 2400 MHz to 8000 MHz.

3 operational modes 

1. Oscillograph mode – Identify the type of detected bugs, you can identify the type of detected eavesdropping devices by the shape of a radio signal and its behavior such as analog GSM and WiFi bug. Then short press “OK” to freeze a picture on the oscillograph for analyzing radio environment or consulting a reference guide.

2. Search mode – Is activated automatically, the device will starts displaying peak and average value of the detected signals peak values are colored in red and averaged values in green.

3. Security mode – The displays shutdown but the device keeps scanning the radio environment, if a new signal found the device will activate.

Follow these 7 steps to find spy bugs and unauthorized signals :

1. Switch off all data transmitting devices in the room – Install the antennas and then search mode will activate automatically  once the device turn on. The device start displaying peak and average values of the detected signals peak values are colored in red and averaged values in green.

2. Adjust device to the current environment – The sensitivity of the device can be adjusted to the current environment automatically by pressing and holding “OK” or you can do it manually using “UP” and “DOWN” buttons, each scale is adjusted separately hold “RIGHT” or “LEFT” buttons for more than two seconds to switch between scales.

3. Select ANT 1 search channel –  To find analog bugs and most common digital devices such as GSM bug, 3G Cameras and other. Then, scans the room but if the graph changes you have to decrease the sensitivity for one and continue scanning. Additionally, use acoustic control function if a spy bug is found the device will starts crackling, rustling or clattering.

4. Select ANT 2 and check the room again – To find devices operating with the frequencies between 2400 MHz – 8000 MHz such as WiFi & Bluetooth transmitter, analog cameras and so on. Scan the room again pays attention to the peak values.

5. Switch to oscillagraph mode – You can identify the shape of the radio signal switch between the antennas in this mode for more precise search.

6. Switch to the security mode – Once the search is completed and all bugs are found switch the device to the security mode, The displays shutdown but the device keeps scanning the radio environment, if a new signal found the device will activate.

7. Upload the log in PDF format – Connect the device to your PC and select view logs in order to upload them in PDF format. The device is identified as an external memory with files, if you need to keep further data you have to save it on the other digital media every 4 sessions, old data will be updated new automatically.

Here it is : User Manual Threats Detector 04

Absolutely, we are recommended you to turn on this device in “Security Mode” because the “Air Gapped” computer is an isolated network area, so there are no wireless signals can operate in the area. 

But if the abnormal signals occur, the device will activate automatically , you can switch to “Oscillagraph Mode” to identify the shape of the radio signal switch between the antennas in this mode for more precise search the actual source of the unauthorized signal. 

Note : Check out our page, if you want to learn more about how threats from wireless networks affect an “Air Gapped” computer.

Unfortunately, it cannot because this device can detects the transmitted bugging and spying devices only.

Absolutely, this device is created to detect the illegal spying devices or bugs but you can also use this device to detect the unauthorized networks from computers, smart devices and every other devices that able to transmit the radio frequencies signal in the area that prohibit of using wireless networks.

Example: If a TSCM sweep is being conducted, users have the ability to isolate all transmissions that are WIFI based, if the frequency meter still detects a WIFI signal, this would be an unauthorized transmission which would need to located.

With the superior features added : 

1. Background subtraction – This feature allows you to detect specific bugging & spying devices in the crowd area. 

For example, you would like to hidden camera or another tracking device but you are surrounding with many people in your area. 

It hard to tell them to disabling their 4G or 5G signal. 

With the background subtraction you are able to filter out those signals and then you can find the hidden camera or another tracking device. 

In conclusion : Background subtraction is created to minimize false detection in the crowd area.

2. PDF logging – You are able to know what kinds of signal & frequency operated by the spying & bugging devices and illegal access point as well in form of PDF format.
