WAM-X25+ Wireless Activity Monitor

Housed in a rugged tablet-style enclosure, the WAM-X25+ wireless activity monitor elevates technical surveillance countermeasures to an elite level within our counter surveillance range and specialist bug detection catalog.

Featuring simultaneous 13-channel monitoring, a 10,000-event memory logger, 360-degree directional signal mapping, and granular Wi-Fi and Bluetooth packet decoding, it is recognised among our top spy equipment gadgets for 2024.

Whether conducting residential inspections, executive boardroom sweeps, vehicle searches, or venue security checks, the WAM-X25+ provides complete frequency intelligence across an expansive 10 MHz to 14 GHz spectrum.

Worldwide 5G Cellular Tuning & L-Band Satellite Phone Detection

The unit features selectable global regional frequency profiles (UK, Europe, Asia, Africa, Americas, Australia), ensuring precision filtering across 2G, 3G, 4G, and global 5G cellular bands.

Beyond terrestrial cellular networks, the WAM-X25+ incorporates dedicated L-Band (1.6 GHz) detection, making it capable of identifying satellite phones and satellite-linked asset trackers.

All cellular activity is logged continuously, capturing time, date, duration, and signal strength so operators can spot unauthorized mobile phone use in prisons, boardrooms, or exam halls.

Advanced 6 GHz Wi-Fi & Bluetooth Beacon / AirTag Packet Analysis

Modern eavesdropping hardware increasingly relies on short-range wireless protocols to stream audio, transmit video, or store data locally before sending high-speed bursts.

Beyond standard RF signal detection, this wireless activity monitor incorporates dedicated 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, and new 6 GHz detection channels alongside independent WLAN and Bluetooth protocol analysers.

The Wi-Fi analyser catalogs nearby access points and clients, MAC addresses, manufacturer data, SSIDs, and packet counts.

The built-in Bluetooth analyser identifies active Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) devices—including Apple AirTags and other beacon trackers, smartphones, and headphones—cataloging MAC addresses, manufacturer signatures, packet counts, and dBm signal strength to distinguish legitimate office hardware from rogue GSM bugs, portable hidden cameras, or covert spy cameras.

360-Degree Directional Mapping & Live-Scan Graphing

To eliminate guesswork during physical sweeps, the WAM-X25+ features an intuitive 360-degree directional signal finding facility.

When paired with the LPA-14-SMA directional log-periodic antenna, rotating the unit plots signal strength vector angles across a 360-degree graph on the 7-inch screen, guiding operators directly to hidden GPS trackers or room bugs.

A real-time 6 GHz digital frequency counter and Live-Scan waveform software work side-by-side to highlight short-burst transmissions from modern tracking devices.

Exportable 10,000-Event Reporting

Its non-volatile memory logs up to 10,000 transmission events, which can be offloaded via USB-C flash drive to a Windows PC for analysis, producing comprehensive report dossiers for clients.

How does the Wi-Fi and Bluetooth packet analysis feature work on the WAM-X25+ wireless activity monitor?

Unlike basic meters that only register RF signal spikes, the WAM-X25+ decodes digital network packets. For Wi-Fi, it identifies MAC addresses, router manufacturers, SSIDs, client connections, and packet counts across 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands. For Bluetooth, it captures MAC addresses, manufacturer signatures, dBm signal strength, and detects BLE beacon devices like Apple AirTags, allowing you to identify unauthorized spy cameras, trackers, or audio bugs.

What are the main upgrades in the WAM-X25+ compared to the previous WAM-X25 model?

The WAM-X25+ adds full 6 GHz Wi-Fi band detection, L-Band (1.6 GHz) satellite phone tracking, expanded Bluetooth beacon and AirTag analysis, an upgraded high-gain front end extending detection range up to 50 metres, and USB-C power connectivity.

How does the 360-degree direction finding feature help locate hidden bugs?

When using the LPA-14-SMA directional antenna, the WAM-X25+ gathers signal strength data as you slowly rotate the unit through 360 degrees. The software plots this data visually on the 7-inch screen, providing an accurate directional vector pointing straight toward the source of the transmission.

Will the WAM-X25+ wireless activity monitor detect non-transmitting voice recorders or offline cameras?

No. Wireless activity monitors detect active radio frequency emissions. Non-transmitting dictaphones or offline MicroSD cameras store data locally without broadcasting RF signals. Finding non-transmitting bugs requires a physical inspection, a thermal imager, or a Non-Linear Junction Detector (NLJD).

Can the 10,000-event memory log be exported for formal sweep reports?

Yes. The internal memory stores up to 10,000 events with time, date, duration, band, and signal strength. Exporting the log to the supplied USB drive allows you to open the data on a Windows PC to generate detailed graphs and timeline reports for clients.

Can the WAM-X25+ detect live GPS vehicle trackers and satellite trackers?

Yes. Live GPS trackers transmit data in brief cellular burst packets, while satellite trackers use L-Band frequencies. The WAM-X25+’s dedicated 2G–5G cellular channels, 1.6 GHz L-Band receiver, and live-scan graphing capture these burst transmissions, while the 360-degree directional finder helps pinpoint the physical tracker on a vehicle.

What is the key difference between the WAM-X25+ and the WAM-X10+?

While both feature 13-channel 14 GHz coverage, worldwide 5G, 6 GHz Wi-Fi, and L-Band satellite detection, the WAM-X25+ upgrades to a larger 7-inch tablet display, increases memory capacity from 4,000 to 10,000 events, adds 360-degree directional signal mapping, and includes standalone Wi-Fi MAC address and Bluetooth/AirTag network analysers.

Do I need a license to operate the WAM-X25+ in the UK?

No. The WAM-X25+ is a passive radio frequency receiver that scans ambient signals without broadcasting or causing network interference. It is completely legal to own and operate in the UK without a specialised licence.

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

• Although this high-end counter-surveillance product is designed for professional TSCM applications, its tablet interface is intuitive to use; however, due to its extensive feature set, novice users are advised to gain familiarity in known ‘friendly’ environments or consult an experienced practitioner.
• While the WAM-X25+ categorises frequencies into distinct bands and decodes wireless packets, maintaining up-to-date knowledge of frequency allocations and common surveillance protocols will help you interpret results accurately.
• No single counter-surveillance detector, regardless of sophistication, can locate every type of surveillance device; non-transmitting dictaphones or record-to-card hidden cameras emit no RF signals and require physical search or NLJD equipment.
• Bug sweepers, frequency scanners, and wireless activity monitors are completely legal to own and operate in the UK as passive receiving devices that do not broadcast radio signals.
