Yes, it does, but it is still not sensitive enough to be really useful.
For instance, an electric field of 100 volts per meter will read only 1 on
the Trifield scale. But we need to be able to identify electric fields of 2
or 3 volts per meter! These will read only .02 and .03 of that initial
"one" on the meter scale. In other words, perhaps if we have really good eyes
we might see the needle wiggle just the tiniest bit. This is just not useful.
The radio/microwave mode of the Trifield is not useful, either. This
leaves us essentially with a magnetic field meter.
People using a Trifield to look for electric and radio/MW exposure are
given a very false sense of security.
