Wireless camera hunter: peek in on hidden cams

wcamhunt_w.jpgCameras are everywhere these days. I once worked in an office building that had a big red sign at the door that warned all visitors that they would be filmed by up to 38 different audio and video cameras once inside. Sheesh! If today's culture of surveillance bugs you, this wireless camera hunter will help you even the playing field a bit. Picking up wireless camera signals from as far as 500 feet away, the device can display the feeds for you on its 2.5-inch color screen. Not only will it let you see what security cameras see, you can use it to make sure your pervy neighbor didn't hook up a shower cam in your bathroom while housesitting for the weekend. Such piece of mind doesn't run cheap, with the device costing you a cool $500, plus a little more for the AA batteries it needs.

on the wireless hunter.... i want to use this to see if i'm on a spy camera when i'm at my boyfriends house. I think the camera is in a clock alarm and anouther one in the bedroom (don't know kind or where it's at in the bedroom). So will this work on his camera system. I think the recordings is going to his computer. Or do you have some ideas
