How best to measure microwaves frequencies?

A good one will tell you what sort of signal strength is around, and some have amplitude demodulation (thank you Bill Bruno for giving me that term), which is an audio analysis indicative of strength, and also useful for discerning the type of signal.

Looks like people have been buying them up.

It detects nothing when I put it right next to my own wi-fi emitter, so I'm guessing I'd have to buy something different to detect microwaves? I can use my computer's on wifi ability to detect others, but it's kind of awkward carrying it around the apartment,turning it upside down and the like to see how the signal bars vary. PlusI have no way of knowing about cell towers. I'd also ask is it even worthwhile to spend a lot of money on RF type meters? I've already discovered and made good changes based on the Cellsensor meter.
