WAM-X10+ Wireless Activity Monitor

The WAM-X10+ handheld multi band wireless activity monitor elevates technical counter-surveillance (TSCM) countermeasures to an extraordinary level, serving as a flagship specialist bug detector for professional sweep teams and security operatives.

Featuring a complete ground-up redesign, this upgraded model introduces worldwide 5G cellular coverage, a dedicated 6 GHz Wi-Fi detection band, and L-Band satellite phone monitoring alongside a 4000-event memory logger and real-time live-scan graphing.

Whether inspecting corporate boardrooms, executive suites, government facilities, prisons, exam halls, or vehicles, the WAM-X10+ delivers military-grade signal analysis across an expansive 10 MHz to 14 GHz wideband spectrum.

Worldwide Cellular Coverage & L-Band Satellite Phone Detection

Unlike standard sweepers that cycle through frequencies sequentially or are restricted to specific regional networks, the WAM-X10+ features international cellular profiles covering UK, European, Asian, African, American, and Australian carrier bands.

Operators simply select their deployment region to detect all active 2G, 3G, 4G, and 5G cellular threats, including mobile phones, covert 5G video transmitters, and burst-transmitting GPS vehicle trackers.

Crucially, the WAM-X10+ now incorporates specialised L-Band (1.6 GHz) detection, making it capable of pinpointing satellite phones and satellite-linked tracking devices operating outside standard cellular networks.

Advanced 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, and 6 GHz Wi-Fi & Store-and-Forward Analysis

With short-range wireless protocols dominating modern surveillance hardware, the WAM-X10+ features separate, dedicated detectors for 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, and the latest 6 GHz Wi-Fi and Bluetooth frequency spectrums.

Complex internal algorithms decode incoming signal structures to help operators categorise whether a transmission originates from standard network traffic, Bluetooth beacons, or a covert “store-and-forward” bug that records room audio locally before bursting data back to a remote receiver in short, high-speed pulses.

An upgraded high-gain RF front end increases sensitivity across all channels, detecting active signals at distances up to 50 metres depending on ambient environmental conditions.

Live-Scan Graphing, Event Logging & PC Reporting

Supported by a real-time digital frequency counter reading up to 6 GHz, operators can observe live signal traces visually on the 3.5-inch color TFT screen, making it significantly easier to spot brief burst-transmissions.

For detailed historical analysis, the unit’s non-volatile memory logs up to 4000 individual RF transmission events, capturing the exact time, date, duration, frequency band, and peak signal strength.

The entire log can be offloaded via USB flash drive to a Windows PC using the supplied analysis software, producing clear graphic logs and timeline reports that integrate seamlessly into client counter surveillance sweep dossiers.

Provided you deploy your equipment for lawful purposes, learning how to sweep for bugging devices with a professional multi-band signal monitor covers a wide range of corporate, private, and government security applications.

Why is a multi band wireless activity monitor with simultaneous channels superior to standard sweepers?

Standard RF sweepers scan across a single wide frequency band sequentially, meaning high-power background signals can easily drown out weak or high-frequency bugs. The WAM-X10+ multi band wireless activity monitor uses 13 independent receivers running simultaneously across wideband, cellular, satellite, and Wi-Fi spectrums, allowing it to isolate multiple threats side-by-side without missing split-second burst transmissions.

What new capabilities does the upgraded WAM-X10+ offer over the previous model?

The WAM-X10+ introduces full worldwide 5G cellular coverage, a new 6 GHz Wi-Fi detection band, dedicated L-Band satellite phone detection (1.6 GHz), an upgraded high-gain front end extending detection range up to 50 metres, and a redesigned, intuitive keypad control layout.

How does the WAM-X10+ detect ‘Store and Forward’ or burst-transmitting bugs?

Store-and-forward bugs record audio or video locally and compress the data before transmitting it in short, rapid bursts. The WAM-X10+ uses real-time Live-Scan graphing and high-speed digital sampling to display these brief spikes visually on screen, logging the exact burst timestamp, duration, and signal strength to reveal covert burst devices.

Can the WAM-X10+ detect satellite phones and satellite vehicle trackers?

Yes. Unlike standard RF detectors that only scan terrestrial cellular networks, the WAM-X10+ includes dedicated L-Band (1.6 GHz) detection specifically designed to capture transmissions from satellite handsets and satellite tracking units operating on networks like Iridium or Inmarsat.

Will the WAM-X10+ locate non-transmitting voice recorders or hidden SD-card cameras?

No. RF activity monitors only detect devices actively broadcasting a radio frequency signal. Standalone dictaphones or offline MicroSD cameras store data locally without emitting RF signals. Detecting non-transmitting bugs requires a physical search, a thermal imaging camera, or a Non-Linear Junction Detector (NLJD).

How does the LPA-14-SMA directional antenna help pinpoint hidden bugs?

While omni-directional antennas tell you that an active transmission exists somewhere in the room, the LPA-14-SMA directional antenna focuses pickup gain in a specific vector. Sweeping walls, ceilings, and furniture with the directional antenna guides you straight to the exact physical origin of the signal by indicating increasing signal strength as you approach the source.

How does worldwide cellular profile selection work on the WAM-X10+?

Cellular frequency allocations vary by global region. The WAM-X10+ allows operators to select their specific geographical region (such as UK/Europe, North America, or Asia) from the settings menu. The unit then automatically tunes its hardware filters to match local cellular operator bands, ensuring maximum sensitivity and eliminating false positives from out-of-band signals.

How do I export event logs to produce sweep reports for clients?

The internal memory logs up to 4000 RF events. Insert the supplied USB flash drive into the main unit to export the log file. You can then load the data into the included Windows viewer software to display chronological tables, signal frequency graphs, and burst timelines, which can be easily incorporated into professional client TSCM sweep reports.

Can I export the 4000-event log to generate client sweep reports?

Yes. The entire 4000-event memory log can be offloaded to the included USB memory stick and transferred to a Windows PC. The supplied software generates detailed frequency graphs and chronological lists that can be attached directly to professional TSCM sweep reports.

What is the main operational difference between the WAM-X10+ and the CAM-GX5?

The CAM-GX5 focuses specifically on cellular networks (2G–5G) and Wi-Fi/Bluetooth bands up to 6 GHz. The WAM-X10 includes all of those cellular capabilities plus a 10 MHz to 14 GHz wideband receiver, a 6 GHz frequency counter, and a high-gain directional antenna for pinpointing physical transmitter locations.

How does the WAM-X10+ compare to military-grade spectrum analysers like the HSA-Q1?

The WAM-X10+ is a premier handheld activity monitor and data logger offering rapid multi-band sweep coverage. The HSA-Q1 is a full spectrum analyser offering ultra-fast sweep speeds, advanced background RF subtraction, and waterfall displays designed to defend against state-level electronic attack protocols.

Do I need a special licence to own or operate the WAM-X10+ in the UK?

No. The WAM-X10+ is a passive radio frequency receiver that monitors ambient signals without transmitting or interfering with communications networks. It is completely legal to purchase, own, and operate in the UK without a specialised licence.

You will need to consider the following to use this Bug Detector:

• If you are using a bug sweeper or frequency monitor for the first time, it is advisable to test the device in various known ‘friendly’ environments to become familiar with its functions and proficient in its operation.
