Hi everyone,

I'm not sure if anyone has noticed, but there seems to be a gap between the ELF/VLF frequencies and the RF/MW frequencies that most commonly accessible meters do not detect because it is not within their detectable frequency range.Take, for example, ham/amateur radio frequencies: "Many ham bands are found in the frequency range that goes from above the AM radio band (1.6 MHz) to just above the citizens band (27 MHz)" (https://electronics.howstuffworks.com/ham-radio2.htm). Yet, the Acoustimeter AM-10 only goes down to 200 MHz, and is thus unable to detect such frequencies. Other common meters for lower down in the spectrum also wouldn't detect them.

In order to cover this gap, I was recommended this meter: http://emfclothing.com/en/emf-detectors/99-esmog-spion.html . This meter has a frequency range of 0 Hz – 3 GHz.



I was just wondering if anyone has experience with this meter, or if anyone else knows of another meter that can fulfill the same function? Thank you!
