Comsonics Sniffer Sleuth Signal Leakage Detector
Sleuth is a hand-held signal leakage detection device. When programmed, Sleuth makes active measurements on a chosen frequency and shows the results on a liquid crystal display (LCD). It indicates detected leakage by receiving and processing a modulated carrier.
Sleuth can detect leaks at up to 500 feet with a sensitivity of -76 dBmV (0.4 µV/m), or -72 dBmV (0.7 µV/m) if the Sniffer I.D. tag system is used. There are two models that differ only in their tuning ranges: the model 100760-001, which operates in the range of 80 ~ 120 MHz in increments of 1 kHz, and the Model 100760-002, which operates in the range of 120 MHz ~ 150 MHz in increments of 1 kHz.
Sleuth has Sniffer II/III and SnifferID tone discrimination capability: it can be set to detect one or both of two discrete モtagヤ signals injected into a television signal by a SnifferID? signal source. Sleuth operates in one of two modes: a モvideoヤ mode, in which Sleuth generates its own audio tone based on the signal from a video sensing system; and a モSnifferヤ mode, in which Sleuth amplifies a received signal for its audio output (see Using Sleuth in the Field, Operating Modes). Muting suppresses the audio output but not the readout displays. Sleuth also discriminates between signal leakage and such non-signal RF radiation as power lines and burst noise.
Sleuth has a built-in dipole antenna, or can be adapted to work with a handheld dipole antenna. The Docking Station adapts Sleuth for monopole antenna use. Sleuth can also be used with the GeoSniffer for vehicle-based mapping of RF leakage. (See Using Sleuth with the Docking Station and Using Sleuth with an External Antenna, and Setup Function Modes: External Antenna for details.)
When Sleuthメs dipole antenna is fully retracted and stored normally, the unit has the functionality of a nearfield probe antenna. Common-mode reception enabled by the folded antenna elements collapses the sensitivity to a forward direction, increasing Sleuthメs near-field isolation capability. The illustration demonstrates Sleuthメs field of sensitivity in this way.
Rechargeable nickel-cadmium (NiCad) batteries are used to power Sleuth. Although intended for hand-held operation. Sleuth can also be operated from a vehicle power system through the use of an optional Docking Station. (See Using Sleuth with the Docking Station.)
The Sleuth モpanelヤ is equipped with two keys. The ON / OFF button turns Sleuth on and off. The FUNCTION button switches the Sleuth from its normal, or operating, mode into one of the Setup modes. Repeated presses of the FUNCTION button scroll through each of the different setup functions and then back to the operating mode. After five seconds with no additional key presses, any of the function modes returns to the operating mode automatically.
Readings taken by Sleuth, as well as various user preference settings and status indicators, are displayed on an LCD panel that faces the user when Sleuth is in use:

Readings taken by Sleuth, as well as various user preference settings and status indicators, are displayed on an LCD panel that faces the user when Sleuth is in use:
- The µV/m indicator displays readings taken by Sleuth in µV/m while the device is in operating mode;
- The distance indicator displays the distance setting of Sleuth (or, in Frequency Setup mode, the target frequency which Sleuth can be set to tune);
- The tachometer-style relative indicator displays relative signal strength in the operating mode;
- The reference mark, displayed at center scale, indicates that Sleuth has locked onto a target signal;
- The battery low indicator appears when the battery has approximately five minutes of operating time
